a shame

11 years ago

I have visited a nimber of latin amerian countries and endec up with the same results. crime is rampant and safety espedially for foreigniers (sp) is an serious issuse, It seems that someone coming from a different country to find a place for pe-ace and quiet and to just sit back and hang out with its neigbors is tough to find. Ecuador rampant crime, Costra Rica and Panama not much better, Crime in Nicaragua and Belize is under reported due to a small police force Anyone considering a move to any Cental America country should consider the risk involved, Calling 911 is a joke especiallu if you are a foeighner. It just won;t happen. They expcet you will take care of uour own problemsE Thatt is why creme reports are so .low in some countries, It makes sence, few police officers means low crime.
