Thank you.

I think Mr. Chong raised the issue of migration as well. Much of the issue is stemming from Venezuela and the political crisis of Venezuela with the illegitimate regime that exists there. The challenges tend to be in Colombia, Brazil and Peru, but also from Colombia up across the Darién Gap and into Central America.

Can you tell me a little bit about what is meant in the news when we hear about the Darién Gap?
