San Jose- June 2, 2010
Overseas Security Advisory Council (OSAC) representatives met with key leaders including Embassy San Jose Deputy Chief of Mission, Peter Brennan and Costa Rican Vice Minister of Public Security, Jorge Chavarria Guzman to discuss ways to reduce crime levels and protect the safety of local citizens.
During the meeting, Embassy officials, OSAC representatives and Vice Minister Jorge Chavarria Guzman discussed ways to work together to avoid future trucks and stores being robbed, increase security in risk zones where truck drivers have been targeted, and join efforts to create a strategic plan to promote the rule of law and reduce crime levels.
Representatives from OSAC will work with the U.S. Embassy in San Jose to organize a follow-up workshop in the coming weeks to begin working on the strategic plan of action that will then be presented to the Government of Costa Rica.
OSAC was established to promote security cooperation between American business and private sector interests worldwide and the U.S. Department of State.
