Costa Rican President Solis Confirms Support for AMEGA
October 27, 2014 - Fairmont Royal York, Toronto, Canada
Costa Rica’s President Luis Guillermo Solis today re-confirmed his administration’s support for AMEGA’s proposed transshipment hub and dry canal. Speaking to a business audience at the Economic Club of Canada in Toronto, Ontario, President Solis pointed to AMEGA as an example of Canadian-led investment in Costa Rica. AMEGA was one of two Canadian companies singled out for special mention by President Solis, alongside Scotiabank, one of Canada’s largest banks.
President Solis emphasized the importance of infrastructure investment in creating prosperity, noting that AMEGA fits with his administration’s strategy to develop the economic potential of Costa Rica’s oceans, and Costa Rica’s strategic location in the Caribbean basin near the Panama canal.
AMEGA’s “Megaterminal of the Atlantic” will be a modern, efficient, high-capacity container transshipment hub that will bring a $900 million investment into the port of Moin, creating local jobs and providing a significant impetus for development of the Limon area.

Aubrey de Young, CEO of AMEGA meeting with Minister of Foreign Trade, Alexander Mora
and Mr. Chu Yili, China Road and Bridge Corporation (CRBC).
Minister Mora has stated that the AMEGA’s MTA will strengthen the country as a major player in global trade logistics, as well as taking advantage of the Panama Canal expansion, due to the proximity and strategic position of Puerto Limon, in relation to the maritime routes that use it.
"Getting Costa Rica to account with a world class port infrastructure is a central condition to sustain our development and take advantage of trade and investment as enablers. The opportunities arising from the expansion of the Panama Canal are many in terms of trade, investment and multiple activities of support, so everyone in the country should support the development of these projects that allow us to strengthen them while they become potential contributors to the development of Limon.”
