Nation has television date
By the A.M. Costa Rica staff
The country will be featured on CNBC Saturday and Sunday, according to Christopher Howard, the local author who helped the camera crew.
“The story was filmed a couple of months ago,” said Howard. “I took the CNBC World crew around and they interviewed me and other residents about living here. We did part of the shoot at the Cariari Country Club, another part at a resident’s home and a short take at the Association of Residents of Costa Rica.”
He said the visit included a chat with Óscar Arias Sánchez, the current president, who fielded questions about retirees.
Howard said the show will air Saturday at 3:30 and 9:30 a.m. and 8:30 p.m. local time. Sunday the segment can be seen at 2 and 7:30 a.m. and 1 and 3:30 p.m.
