Whenever or wherever you are, crime is always there lurking at the dark alleys in every corner of your street, in any part of the world. To be honest, ever since the modern trends of a more “liberal approach” to parties, alcohol, drugs, sex and a whole lot of stuffs to fit you into the “majority”; crime just increases and with the “War on terror” campaigns running around the world, crimes out of desperate measures is just popping out like mushrooms all over the place.
Because this is actually happening and sometimes you can do nothing about to stop it (face it, you ain’t no superhero with powers like in the fictional stories), therefore it would be wise to think about investing in your security, such as installing a home security system or upgrading your car’s alarm system.
In Malaysia, home security systems start from about RM1500 for a basic option that includes a motion detector and siren, to a comprehensive solution from that cost RM3000 (an example would be from Amway, www.amway2u.com – no, you don’t have to be a member). Generally, the larger your home and the more entry points you have, the more the system will cost – however a few thousand MYR may be well worth your while considering the horrible things we’ve been reading in the newspapers recently. For a peace of mind, you might even want to consider 24-hour monitoring service.
To deter car-jacker from your car, install an immobiliser and other such high tech anti-theft devices. Although nothing is foolproof, it is better than nothing, especially if you drive a nice car. In Malaysia at this moment, cars like Lexus, Mercedes and BMW have become popular with car-jackers.
Personal note:
When you want something luxury, everything comes with a price. And if you are opt to be pampered with such comfort you need to be prepared for possible circumstances. Heck, even simple homes are prone to break-ins and thieves these days started having such ideas that millionaires don’t show off their stuffs anymore.
