Another Break In !!!

There was another break in at Block B yesterday!!!

I think this is getting absurb and the residents need to do something drastic before someone gets hurt. The normal suggestions and actions are not enough, we need come up with something different since nothing works.

These may sound silly but can I suggest that, we have the police involved here (full investigation)? Or can we form a Rukun Tetangga? Is there anything we can do than re-enforcing the doors? 

Residents, please come up with some ideas or suggestions so that we can have back our normal lives. Pass your suggestions to Mr. LT Yeoh or Mr. KS Gan immediately. They are having a meeting tonight (5th May 2009, 8:30pm) at the pool side. We really need your inputs and solve this issue together.

10 Simple Ways to Prevent Break Ins

No:10

Leaving certain things lying around your yard or in plain sight from the road can unwittingly lure thieves onto your property like frantic bargain hunters to a flea market. First, if you have a bicycle or scooter that someone could easy to walk away with, roll it inside or into your garage. Also, after purchasing a new plasma TV or other pricey electronics or appliance, don't leave the box out beside the trash can. That tells people you have something brand spanking new that could fetch decent dollars on the street. It may also leave them wondering what other goodies are inside your home.

You may also be showing off too much to people walking by your house as well. Open up your curtains, blinds or shades and stroll around the house and see what's visible. If you have a number of expensive items within plain sight or near windows, think about doing a minor redesign to move them out of view.
