Don't Try To Bribe Cop If You Go To Chile
Dear A.M. Costa Rica:
Americans, of the northern type, may assume that the current evidence of widespread police corruption in Cost Rica is endemic to Latin American cultures. I had the privilege of visiting Chile a few years ago and learned that Chileans take great pride in the honesty and integrity of their police force. The offering of a bribe to a police officer would be very unwise.
I experienced a sense of safety and security in Chile I never found in Costa Rica. Perhaps the fact I was never robbed in Chile, unlike Costa Rica, helped foster this sense of well being.
