You obviously have never even been to Paraguay so stop lieing. However I'm a paragyan citizen by birth lived here all of my life still do in Acuncion.In the city or countryside throughout Paraguay violent crimes happen each day. I've visited Montevideo much safer than Paraguay could ever be.Brazil borders Paraguay but you wouldn't actually know that since you have never been in Paraguay as I mentioned before.Don't mislead other foreigners by telling your lies jeopardizing their safety.Paraguay police officers and government look the other way when drug cartels pass through Paraguay from Peru Colombia and Brazil just as long as police and government in Paraguay get paid cash.Paraguay is the center of the transportation hub for these countries including Bolivia transporting many kilos of cocaine a fact daily.Stop lieing native Paraguayansjust like me know exactly what happens throughout Paraguay because we experience the extreme violence each day so shut up.

That's a big lie. I've been in Asuncion for a few months and it's safer than most big latin american cities I've been to. Definitely safer than Montevideo.

Paraguay is riddled with dangerous people armed robbery, car jacking and multiple murders are common.Spend your money in Uruguay we don't have any problems here even in Montevideo.
