Public security

有一句香港电影的对白大概是这样的，有一警察凶恶对待一罪犯，罪犯顶咀警察说，“凶什么，如果没有我们这些人，你有这工作？”

也有电影讽刺警察等到劫匪逃了，警察才敢出现！

马来西亞的治安越来越糟，但这对人民生命安全及钱财被劫方面严重受威胁的事，都不见有很多执政者正视。上星期槟城有三宗政治人物的妻女，一位被劫杀﹔俩位各被抢财… 这下可是‘大事’，当然事情会较被关注，所以就有人大提遏止罪案滋生！

警察本来就有工做嘛，但这下不知是不是会很忙而已！还有可能警察不够用啦！

求学时，当老師要我们写‘我的志愿’ ，警察曾是我其中的一个志愿。当然我没达成这个志愿！不知道现在的华裔学生有几个会写志愿是当警察，若有的话，那可能他们的父母也会要他们改写…

我小时候与朋友们玩耍，有一个遊戏叫‘mata lia chat’（兵捉贼）…. 如今我不再看到有小孩玩这遊戏了！

There was a conversation in a Hong Kong movie; a policeman was mean to a prisoner, that prisoner became angry and said, “Why are you so mean? If you didn’t have us criminals, you wouldn’t have this work.”

Another movie also made a crack about police waiting for robbers to leave before they dare appear!

The public security in Malaysia is getting worse and worse. There are serious threats to peoples’ life and money, but the government is not solving it seriously. Last week, there were three cases involving politicians’ wives and daughter; one got robbed & killed and two got robbed…. These were ‘big’ cases, so of course, they are high profile. So, people voiced up about stopping the rising crime!

Sure police should have their work to do, but we don’t know if they are doing more or not! And maybe, ‘police no enough’!

While in the school, the teachers wanted us to write ‘What I want to be…’. ‘Police’ was one of the things I wanted to be. Of course, I didn’t become one! Nowadays, I am not sure how many students would write that they want to be police. Even if some want to be police, maybe their parents would want them to change to another one…

When I was a kid, I played with friends; there was a game called ‘cops and robbers’…. I don’t see this game played by the kids nowadays!
