Security

Security in New Zealand: the New Zealand Police is the national service in charge of ensuring that the criminal laws and traffic regulations are obeyed all over the country. It is a decentralized organization divided into 12 districts, a central office and service centers in each district. The police don’t usually go about armed and therefore have a very good reputation among the New Zealanders. It is all about a community based service and the policemen and policewomen are motivated by feeling responsible for their own communities. The crime rate in New Zealand is very low due to the prevention and recidivism reduction programs carried out by the government each year.

Some tips: Travelers wishing to avoid problems throughout their stay should keeping mind a few simple rules:
* the best way of moving around with money is through the use of travelers checks, and changing these as you need the money;
* where possible, leave all items of value (jewelry, travelers checks, credit cards, airplane tickets, etc) in a safe at the hotel or place you are staying at. In the Yellow Pages you will find a listing of business offering security services and safe deposit boxes as another alternative.
* don’t leave luggage in an unwatched car.
* take out a traveler’s insurance policy to cover the costs of any losses or robberies that may take place.
