It has been about 1 week now that residents of Boquete have been having water problems with little to no flow in some areas of Alto Boquete
The Alcaldia has been conducting repairs throughout the lines going as far as Los Naranjos with their repair efforts in order to resolve the situation as soon as possible.
If you have a Facebook Account, please ad Alcaldia de Boquete 2014-2019 where the Alcalde posts continuous updates on the situation and their assurance that they are doing everything possible to restore the vital fluid to everyone.
You may call the Alcaldia if your problem persists or to report an ongoing problem. They will work with you

The infrastructure is old and inadequate for the amount of new homes being supplied by water, and they have not been maintained well either. It is a challenge and the effects of El Nino this year have been felt in Panama more than other years. It is a mix of factors that influence the water problem, but overall, there is a new budget to fix the water problems and at least one can see the efforts of the Alcalde to be proactive and hands on and try to alleviate the problems
I wonder if it is simply just a shortage of water so it is being rationed. Although you say they are making repairs, I have not noticed any damage veins? Plus, it is always right about this time of the year (the driest) that these problems arise?
