Costa Rican Post Office To Export Its
Expertise To The World
Costa Rica will share with the world the
successful experiences accumulated by
Correos de Costa Rica - Costa Rica's
efficient post office - through the "Costa
Rica Best Practices" through the Dirección
de Cooperación del Ministerio de relaciones
Exteriores (Cooperation Directorate of the
Foreign Ministry), alloing national
institutions more direct contact with
Governments, international agencies and
other entities.
To that end, the ministro de Relaciones
Exteriores, Bruno Stagno and the Gerente
General de Correos de Costa Rica, Álvaro
Coghi, signed the "Convenio de Cooperación
Interinstitucional" - an interinstitutional
cooperation agreement - where the national
postal service can export its expertise,
that includes the desing of postal
addresses, postal codes and postal reforms.
The agreement is for three years and each
party will do its best to promote
cooperation on an international level.
Anyone who has visited Costa Rica will first
notice that there are no street addresses
and unlikely to remember ever having seen a
postal box or a postal delivery worker
(mailman).
Most homes and businesses have a postal box,
however, rarely is it filled with mail
delivered from the Correos de Costa Rica
(post office), but rather from mail
delivered directly from utilities and of
course, junk mail (flyers), again delivered
directly and not through the post office. |
