The Puebla-Panama Plan (Spanish: Plan Puebla Panamá, acronym PPP also known as Mesoamerican Integration and Development Project, or Project Mesoamerica) is a multi-billion dollar development plan formally initiated in 2001, which is intended to "promote the regional integration and development" of the nine southern states of Mexico (Puebla, Guerrero, Veracruz and points south) with all of Central America and Colombia. The initiative was championed by the then president of Mexico, Vicente Fox, and agreed to by the governments of the respective participating nations.

Famous quotes containing the word plan:
“The inference is, that God has restated the superiority of the West. God always does like that when a thousand white people surround one dark one. Dark people are always “bad” when they do not admit the Divine Plan like that. A certain Javanese man who sticks up for Indonesian Independence is very lowdown by the papers, and suspected of being a Japanese puppet.”
—Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960)
