In today's newspaper, a national-level crime prevention campaign will be launched by the Prime Minister soon. At the moment, it was informed that more than one million pamphlets on crime prevention, including rape and burglary, will be distributed nationwide starting Saturday.
Extract from The Star:
The pamphlets are entitled “Personal Safety”, “Home Security”, “Holiday Security for Homes”, “Home Security and Safety Advice”, “Rape: No Means No”, “Crime Prevention For the Disabled”, “Ladies Safe” and “Teen and School Kids Safety”.
It's about time we have a national launched on the above mentioned. I hope it won't be just a one-time-thingy or a 'season' drive where after the telecasted launched, everything suddenly become quiet and then died. I hope this effort will continue and are properly plan.
MCPF vice-chairman Tan Sri Lee Lam Thye said the pamphlets, with a practical checklist of safety tips, would hopefully go a long way towards preventing crime.
“If the public follows the tips, I believe crime can be reduced,” he said at a media briefing on the month-long campaign, themed Prevent Crime, Get Involved, We Can Do It Together.
I will have to wait and see the tips. I believe in general we are aware of the prevention tips but choose to be ignorant.
I hope when the drive is on, no stupid comments by certain group about female dressing as the reason of rape. I have heard enough of MCP commments about how they debate and question female dressing as reason for rape.
