The complex of buildings, (not yet visible [May 14, 2009] on this aerial imagery), is the center of a reportedly 740-hectare, 1830-acre plantation with architect-designed campus capable of housing 300 people. The new world headquarters for a group of organizations founded and chaired by "Mogens Amdi Petersen" from Denmark. The facility is named "TG Pacifico" of "San Juan de las Pulgas". The umbrella organization, "Tvind International", is known as an educational, revolutionary movement started in Denmark in the 1960's. The architect is "Jan Utzon", son of the famous Sydney opera house designer. As of January 2009 Petersen and other senior Tvind members were wanted by Interpol. (If you zoom into the aerial imagery, you can see excavation work preparing for the buildings, temporary facilities, and vehicles.)
