Police in the Omaheke Region have expressed gratitude to the region's residents and holidaymakers for abiding by the laws during the festive season.
Acting Regional Commander, Deputy Commissioner Jacxon Kamwangha, says the region is one of those that records low crime rates throughout the year.
Swakopmund is one of the preferred holiday destinations in the country, and with its pleasant weather, it is impossible to stay indoors.
Tourism is one of Namibia's fastest-growing industries, and as the holiday season approaches, thousands of tourists and holidaymakers, both local and foreign, will descend on the coastal town of Swakopmund.
Windhoek seems somewhat deserted as many of the capital's residents, as a norm, travel from mid-December to mid-January, to other parts of the country to celebrate the festive holiday season.
The Ministry of Environment, Forestry and Tourism urges the public to follow guidelines to keep themselves secure and safe during the festive season and to ensure that wildlife crimes, and poaching incidences, in particular, do not occur during this holiday.
