Its tranquilo in Cali right now, but they do expect some action tomorrow, when the march apparently will hit Cali. Most shop owners have chosen to close down tomorrow as they are afraid to be robbed.
The marching people have declared it to be a non violent march though, but Uribe yesterday night admitted that the police, against orders, had shot into the crowd and apparently killed one demonstrator, after being attacked with homemade bombs, stones and riffels. Clashes have left up to 150 injured and some 70 police officers injured and 4 killed in total.
So the Pan America going south of Cali is not recommended the next few days. Had two bikers visit me on the 17/10. They left 18/10 and I just heard that they had no problems going south to Ipiales from Cali. And they are in Quito now. But tomorrow and possibly the day after is not good I would suspect.
Still you´re all welcome here at the hostel this area is perfectly safe!
