After several weeks to sharpen details, finally the contract of "inter-institutional collaboration" was reached yesterday between the company Mundo Antiguo S.A., the Ministry of Culture and Sport, the National Commission of Protected Areas (Conap) and the Inguat for the shooting of the live program Survivor: Guatemala, the Mayan Empire.
Willi Kalschmitt, presidential commissioner for the Tourism, informed yesterday into which the shooting of edition 11 of reality Survivor show will initiate the 27th of June and will conclude in the middle of August.
The filming of the program of the American television network CBS, will be carried out in the Natural reserve Yaxha, Naranjo, one of the archaeological parks in Petan, considered an historical and cultural jewel, as well as a place of unmatched natural beauty.
In this reality show, in addition to the 18 contestants, there will be between 150 and 200 film crew.
Millionaire hearing
Kalschmitt, commented that the shooting of the show will be of great benefit for the country because the program is viewed by more than 200 million people worldwide.
Daniel Martin, director of the Inguat, explains that the program will demonstrate that Guatemala will experience great tourism growth.
Carlos Albacete, representative of the Green Tropical ONG, thought that the program would have a minimum impact in the media if the recommendations of organizations like Conap are followed.
Efraan Asij, president of the Commission of Tourism of the Congress, indicated that this type of program is beneficial because in addition to being educational, it markets the country in a way in which the State nor the Government have the capacity to promote it.
Millionaire investment
According to one recent publication of the regional magazine America Economy, the investment to promote the Survivor program is millionaire in the countries that until now have been favored.
According to the magazine, the chosen countries expose their landscapes in the American television in one hour weekly installments throughout the 16 weeks of programming.

"You will have the chance for a crocodile (photographic) hunt this evening on Lake Yaxha--originally, the producers of SURVIVOR: Guatemala wanted to have the players swim in this lake, but changed their mind when they heard about the crocodiles here! We recommend AGAINST swimming in the lake, but it is a great place for a motor boat croc hunt!"
Good news for fans of Africa, Amazon looks like a not so water season and a much needed one probably.
