EVIDENCE: MY VIEW ON COLOMBIA

Colombian people are open and extroverted people, much more than European or American
people are happy, rumberos and good humor, the average Colombian always brings out the
best of each situation and does not miss an opportunity to show their joy and good cheer.
They are people who are very proud of their gastronomy, their climate, music, culture and
places of tourist interest. Colombians often tell how even the language they speak is the finest
in the world and they feel very proud of it.

The Colombian health system has two major strengths compared to other nations: it
guarantees coverage and universal access. However, these achievements are often clouded
by the nightmare in which it has become to deal with that system. Although all people can
go to the doctor to treat any disease, the service provided in many cases is not appropriate,
nor is it appropriate. Colombians are creative by nature and are always looking for ways to
improve in many ways. In Colombia, large projects have been developed in the field of
telecommunications, medicine, technology, business, etc. led by Colombians. From the great
professionals to the most humble, the Colombian is a hard worker. Creativity, tenacity, effort
and discipline is something that characterizes us to move forward projects and get ahead,
always in pursuit of a better future. The less favored Colombian "searches" working on
anything to honor one of the many popular sayings ... "to take the potato home"
