Sending myself a cheque?

I live in Japan which has very bad international bank facilities. I want to transfer my money from a Japanese Bank to a New Zealand one. I live in Japan but have a bank account in New Zealand. (I am from New Zealand) anyway no matter what the country is, Can I write a cheque to myself and send it to my family to deposit it into my account? Also what are the pros and cons. Will it cost extra etc? Its a very very large sum and I think writing myself a cheque is best. Thanks

Answers:
Checks can be lost in transit. If this is a large sum I would suggest sending yourself a wire transfer. It is faster and more secure.
