Musa could’ve said Malaysia is much safer than indonesia. Although its still a stupid comparison but at least its believable. They shouldn’t have brought in Japan and Hong Kong. And to think that our DPM repeated these statements on press conference. God bless Malaysia. Next they’ll be saying Malaysia’s standard of living is better than Singapore..

They obviously thought that the same number game economists play can be applied to explain crime rates and index. For sometime I was in Singapore, UK and HK. Never in any of those places do I feel as fearful as I am in KL of being mugged, of being beaten up silly by mat rempits, of being knifed, of being ran over by some god’s foresaken drivers, of being burgled, of being protected by ISA; and now that I hv a family, of being …

Umno has decided to replace a sleepy head with a deceiver.

I invite umnoputras to come to town without their bodyguards on public holidays. Let them be surrounded by tens of thousand of “bumiputra-to-be”s. By the way bumiputras-to-be are also tuans-to-be. Malaysia must be the only country in the world that has imported Tuans.

Had Altantooya visited Japan, Singapore or Hong Kong instead of KL in 2007, she would still remain in 1 piece today. The same goes for Cannie Ong

This is all in Musa’s perception that Malaysia is safer than Japan, Singapore and Hong Kong. Sorry to say if he got all the statistical information from the reports made, etc., then he is really in deep trouble. There are many crimes that are not reported and worse still, when we go to the police station to make a report, we are told not to since they, the police would not be able to catch the criminals anyway.

Too many excuses and too little manpower to safe guard the citizens of the country.

This is a story I heard, it could be rumor so judge wisely :)

This guy’s car is robbed from him, he dialed emergency number and informed the police. In mean time, he managed to get his friends to drive him and chased after the robber. Robber failed to drive out of the traffic, then fled on foot. Police arrived, report is made, car is to be kept by police for investigation purposes. A week later, he finally able to collect back his car (After some kopi – bcos he really need to use the car). Miraculously, the robber managed to take away the car radio and sound system sets.

If the above is true, that can really help explains:
1. Reason why it seems everyone have came across crime.
2. The reported case geared down, albeit still increasing.
3. Why now I dare not take a 5 minutes walk to my favorite mamak stall at night and rather drive so i can stay safe.

For those who have not made a police report recently, the good news is that the system is computerised and you do not need to go back a few days later to collect the report.
I reported my house break-in and the people at the station were courteous without the previous “why bother to report? Biasa” attitude.
After I got the report I was asked to see the Sergaent and after a brief chat he told me to go home as he wanted to see the scene – he came after 30 minutes and took some photos of the damage.
The poor guy was on medication as he was sick and told me he was on duty as they were short of staff.
So it’s not fair to blame all policemen as bad.
It is those who interact with politicians who lose track of their proper duties.

YB, he made a mistake, actually he wanted to compare with Mamak’s good neighbor: Zimbabwe! At the moment we will still win hand-down!
One has just to listen to the slogans of Bolehland, we will beat everyone very soon; others are less boleh than us because we slogan more than others!!
There seems to be only one cure: unless the fundamental mind-set is changed; otherwise there will be no light at the end of this Bolehland tunnel!

This goverment always use figure statistic to give excuse. Shame on you using figure to escape responsibility for those who lost the love one. I hate the traffic police too who always compare the death life lost on their so call road accident during raya death toll countdown. ”Repudiation goverment”

I currently work in UK, have worked in Italy, Switzerland & Dubai. Each time i see a policeman in the UK, i feel more assured of my personnel safety. I have no qualm walking in the middle of the night in the UK.

Recently, the UK police solved the murders of 2 person committed 14 & 17 years ago. The police here are well mannered & very professional. If are @ Westminister, there about 4 – 5 policemen to guide the thousands of tourist to the Buckingham Palace.

Each time i see a policeman back home, my mind goes, “How much this guy wants?

IGP can walk with pants down…all run away!
BUSOK BAU…SIAPA NAK ORANG TUA…BULOM BERAK?
But walk with few pocket full of money…wear Rolex watch…see what happen.
IGP or no IGP….hungry and desperate people know no laws..no person..nor care what happen to themselves.
That is why…so important to get rid of poverty.

Malaysia safe? Shall we do a simple survey here? Question : Have you ever personally experience crime before?

Mine is twice. First one happend 10 yeras ago, saw thief broke into my car middle of night, try confronting him and nearly got whacked by helmet….he got away. No report made.

Second time was during Raya this year, again car got broken into, side windscreeen smashed, thief snatched laptop bag (no PC inside)…..4 hrs later, my bag was recovered by petrol station attendant….thief discarded bag upon finding no loot. A police report was made.

My mom was also a victim of snatch thief, no injuries though and my dad was nearly a victim of road rage, the driver pulls out a gun!

How about you people?

I wonder what the Japs and Aussie’s think of Najib’s ‘perception’….. Malaysia safer than Japan!?? LOL. No need stats to know the truth.

I think that IGP is correct. Drive to all police stations and you will find that the Proton Wajar Police cars are all neatly parked in the compound. There can only be one reason for this- no one calls for them because there is no crime in Kuala Lumpur.

The IGP should walk KL at night with his pants down to see what could happen to him.
