TRAVELING TO MEXICO?

HERE ARE A FEW THINGS YOU MUST KNOW.

Lately and for some time now it has been said that traveling into Mexico City, whether on business or pleasure is a dangerous adventure. There is a certain amount of truth to this statement.

Mexico City, as outlined by a major Canadian newspaper, is the most dangerous place in the world to live during times of peace. Many people believe this headline to be sensationalistic, but if we take the time to think about it, there is absolutely no war going on in Mexico as opposed to Colombia, where guerrilla organizations have terrorized the country for years. Even within the United Kingdom there has been ongoing conflict with the IRA and other terrorist organizations being the centre of attention for many decades. At this moment it may be more dangerous to live or travel to places like Israel or Gaza, but both are also under constant terrorist siege. But once again, this is not the case for Mexico.

In Mexico, Canadian travelers are exposed to other types of risk such as the unknown attacker who is very well organized, but always remains anonymous. This attacker receives no physical gains from killing, but will do so to get what he wants, which in most cases is money.

Unfortunately, there has been an increase in these violent crimes prompting focused attention from the Canadian media. This advertising has manifested a great state of uncertainty and fear among Canadian nationals traveling to Mexico. Realistically, it is impossible to cut off traveling to Mexico altogether for one very simple reason; it is one of the most important emerging markets in the world and our North American neighbour, with whom we have signed a free trade agreement. So, to forget our circumvent Mexico is not an option.

With these points in mind, V.I.P. PROTECTION has achieved an ironclad alliance with the leading security and executive transportation company in Mexico City. The Response & Emergency Security Team or REST is the premier executive protection agency in Mexico City specializing in transportation and protection of expatriates traveling from abroad.

The operational guidelines followed by REST have been designed based on U.S. Secret Service standards and protocols. REST implements full frontal supervision to every single vehicle transporting or supporting our clients. Through various coordinated systems REST provides an unparalleled protective standard.

The REST standard is designed on three different methods to ensure our clients security. First and foremost, the people who form the REST Team are thoroughly scrutinized. Our recruiters and trainers know more about the drivers than the drivers will ever know about our clients. Therefore, it is impossible for the drivers to disappear in case of any wrongdoing. Every six months, each and every REST driver is submitted to a polygraph exam (lie detector) to look for any indication that they might turn into a liability or risk.

Some tests that REST applies to our staff:

• Polygraph examination

• Background Check

• Family Ties

• Anti – Doping

• Psychological and psychometrical tests (These tests will highlight and show indications of antisocial behaviour)

• MIDOT – an electronic test developed by the Israelis and widely used within their army and intelligence teams.

A copy of the results from any of these tests is available upon request.

The second method REST uses to ensure the reliability of its service is a proprietary supervision scheme. This scheme relies on a 24 Hr Command Centre whose main responsibility is to ensure that all REST 's vehicles and drivers are supported in case of any inconvenience.

REST 's Command Centre provides the full support of several emergency response teams and informational teams. The data teams provide constant, current information like traffic reports and advance reconnaissance for trip planning. Additionally, all vehicles are outfitted with the most advanced satellite tracking equipment available transmitting vital information from the vehicle to our command centre in real time. All these systems working together in conjunction with our highly trained operators ensure that our clients travel in a state of real security.

All REST command centre operators are trained in:

• Crisis Management

• High Impact Teams

• Crime Scene Preservation

• Marcó Jurídico de la Seguridad Privada

• Executive Protection

• Evasive and Defensive Driving

• Surveillance and Counter-surveillance

• Intelligence and Counterintelligence

• Evacuation and Expatriation Procedures

• Customer Support

The third and final factor, which forms the REST Standard, is TRAINING. Every driver receives several training sessions per year on such subjects such as; close body protection, executive protection, evacuation measures, counterintelligence, evasive driving and defensive driving. Supplementing the ongoing training is that all drivers are local residents of Mexico City and have an intricate knowledge and understanding of the streets and routes within the city.

REST is the best-suited company for all business travelers coming to Mexico, whether you require a low profile car and driver or a fully armored van and follow car. Whatever your needs are we can provide the full range of services for your safety and convenience.

Please contact REST to find out how we can help you and your business remain safe while in Mexico by preventing unexpected events, which can jeopardize your success and permanence in the market.

I am creating a syllabus for Florida State College to teach a course for p.i. interns. Quite frankly, I've gotten myself into a hornet's nest because the curriculum was created by a panel of 19 people, none of whom are p.i.'s. My problem is that there is a 3 hour spot for "Executive Protection." This is not within my purview. And actually it doesn't even apply to p.i. interns. Nevertheless, I have 3 hours to fill- and not much to fill it with. I was wondering if you could provide some basic information. There are 8 sub-topics, which I will not list here and some I can actually answer myself. What I would like are the basics of executive protection & how to evaluate risk. You can refer me to a website. Thanks!!
