When it comes to crime reporting, maybe the online media is
lying. Maybe the main stream media is not giving the whole truth. As a
former Minister lambasted, crime is not up in Malaysia; it is all a
matter of perception lah.
But now that VVIPs and their family members are falling prey to street crimes and house robberies, wonder what the government and its mouthpieces have got to reel out.
![CRIME IN MALAYSIA IS NOT UP, LAH! Only VVIPs are getting mugged & robbed lah!]()
Ministers’ children, royalty and even the top-cop’s family members
have become victims to robberies and street crimes. Is this also a
matter of mere ‘perception’.
It is all so easy for top civil servants to be pumped with bullets at close range; it is all so easy for intruders to arrive by the boat loads and stack up their arms and yet go undetected. Even to say so is wrong and one will be accused of being anti-national and what nots.
But leaving these serious breaches of security aside, how now that we have even VVIPs not safe at home or out shopping lah?
Don't politicize crime - how now when BN leaders themselves getting hit!
All these past decades Malaysian citizens – largely the working population, have been raising the alarm over the spates of robberies and near fatal injuries and loss of lives and properties.
The working class citizens have been living in fear not only out in the streets but also hovelled in their barricaded homes of grills, gates, locks and chains, investments in security alarms, watchdogs and what not.
When committed groups stepped forward to raise their concerns to the attention of the authorities, they got brick bats and reprimands. Some VVIPs even went the distance to holler, “Do not politicize the matter”.
Others said that the opposition politicians are exploiting the situation. And statistics were published to hoodwink the rakyat that crime is down in Malaysia and to smear the Opposition politicians who dared to speak in the interest of victims.
When we cannot feel safe in our own yard, what security and safety are we assuring our citizens? When workers and shoppers leave home and arrive home with daunting fear of getting robbed in the street, at the hypermarket or even at the front gate of our homes, we lambast the citizens of being paranoid.
But now that very important citizens are also falling victims to crime, will the same authorities preach to the victims that they must not highlight the crime otherwise tourists’ arrival in Malaysia be affected lah!
