Major risks in Peru

Amigos:

As a third world republic (although there seems to be by now a light at the end of the tunnel), we still suffer from many limitations, mainly poverty because the lack of job oportunities, that force many people to act against the law and then, street robbery (pickpocketting), kidnap (mostly the "express" type and some typical kidnaps, once in a while), car and car accesories robbery, home intrusions, stores asaults, police and some government corruption and the like are so usual inspite of honest police efforts to combat them; juvenile gangs in some suburban areas in the larger cities are also common.

I will explain typical examples of this risks in the following entries and, hopefully, explain what we do in each case.

It's enough for this my first blog.

Thanks for reading this, let me know anything I should do to improve this my first experience.
