Just received this from a very dear friend and herewith share this with you dear friends! Take Care - JG
Dear Dr J,
Greetings!
Please forward this to everyone you know so that they are aware of this
crime.
A few days ago, 7th August 2006, after work at around 6:30pm, while I
was at the traffic light waiting for the green light, I was robbed by 2
men on a motorbike, a crime that I thought would never happened. This
happened in Wangsa Maju, the traffic light after TAR College heading
towards JPJ Wangsa Maju. All the while, we've been cautioned to lock
the doors upon entering the car. I did just that without failed. That
is obviously not enough.
These rotten bastards (pardon my language) are getting more and more
daring. They must have followed my car and struck the moment it came
to a halt. It all happened so fast. After I heard a loud crash on my
window (like someone was throwing a heavy stone on my window glass),
the next thing I knew, someone was grabbing my handbag which I put on the
passenger's sit next to me and ran towards his accomplice who was
waiting in front. Had I known that this type of crime does happen and
had I had that caution at the back of my head, I may have been able to
react and save my handbag. So, please spread the words so that
everyone is aware of this.
Always be watchful wherever you are, no place is safe. What happened
to me took place in broad daylight, tens of cars and motorbikes around
(those who live in KL would know how it's like around 6:30pm where
everyone rushes back from work). No one moved an inch!! Gone are the
days when people would jump to your rescue when in need, can't blame
them much, these criminals can be highly dangerous. Ladies, keep in
mind (and guys remind those you care about):
1) Never to put your handbag (or anything at all for that matter
that may attracts the attention of these pathetic, lazy people) on the
seats. Keep them out of sight
2) If you can afford it, get your window glass tinted, it can
prevent the glass from falling into pieces immediately when someone is
trying to break it. This may deter these useless people from attacking
3) Always be watchful of any suspicious motorists around you. I
was caught off guard because all the while I thought by locking the
doors I am safe, I was wrong!!
4) As much as you can, try to avoid places where you have to make
too many stops at traffic lights
5) Scream for help when you are attacked, there may be some
Samaritans around.
It's not so much of the money you lose that matters most, it's the
hassle that you have to go through having lost your IC, ATM Cards,
Credit Cards, Driving License etc. The government dept. involved, the
banks, care less about how you lose all these, not only you have to
deal with the nightmare, they top-it-up with all the fees and penalties that
you have to pay for losing them, regardless of how!!
I hope by sharing this, we all learn a lesson from it.
Stay safe!
