QUITO: Ecuadoran President Rafael Correa said Saturday he had received death threats via the micro-blogging service Twitter, and had ordered an investigation.
"Have you seen how many death threats I received? Again someone on Twitter wrote 'Hail Caesar, we will kill you! Hail MashiRafael, who we will kill, we salute you!'" Correa said in his weekly address.
The president, who has used the Twitter handle @MashiRafael since July and currently has more than 141,900 followers, said he has asked Interior Minister Jose Serrano to investigate the threatening messages.

I have always looked upon my experiences here in Ecuador as nothing short of an adventure.....a "re-conquest". You will find that this Blog not only offers information on how to live, invest or simply visit Ecuador (rated the number one retirement heaven by International Living magazine for 2011) but also informative information and articles on how to survive in this fast changing and volatile World we live in.
