NZ seems to do very well. We have an excellent postal service. So, if you want to send your parcels and letters safe you should send them here. Best example -told of before: Arriving at work in Hamilton city in a large NZ corporation (in a previous lifetime) I placed a private letter in my out tray. It was to a Bank manager in Auckland - a city about 80 miles from where I was. I arrived at work next morning and was stunned to find in my in tray a type-written response to my letter. Out box - mail clearance - postal centre - 80 mile trip to Ak - mail clearance and delivery to Bank - letter is read and actioned - Response types - Place in out tray - mail clearance - 80 mile trip to Ak - mail delivery - Place in In tray. ~<=3D 24 hours. Very impressive.
