crime prevention is joint responsibility

  There have been quite a number of robbery cases at ATM machines around Klang Valley lately. I feel sorry for the victims and hope the public will be more alert to avoid becoming the next victim.

  Crime could happen anytime if you're not careful.

  In this regard, the police has indeed done their best in fighting crimes. However, we must be realistic and understand that the police is not superhuman and omnipresent, there are times when crimes happen despite what has been done.

  As such, the public should take crime prevention initiative, including heightening alert, avoiding being alone at night or making money withdrawals at remote places.

  The public must be careful and aware of their surrounding.

  Besides that, banks should also upgrade their security system at ATMs including 24 hours security watch.

  Supposedly, the security and surveillance system of banks is among the best, their CCTVs should be able to capture high resolution images and this greatly helps the police in identifiying and tracking down the criminals.

  No doubt, frequent police patrolling crime hotspots could also act as a crime deterrent.
But fighting and preventing crimes needs the co-operation of everyone to achieve the desired result.

  As such, crime prevention is the joint responsibility of the police force and the public. Let us work together to reduce crime.
