I live in a dangerous neighbourhood

What you think was safe once is no more safe now....Even at home~! Damn, my backyard was broken in yesterday and the people took away the steel wash basin. Well, besides that, they've been "visiting"my backyard for scrap metal and stuff... I can't really do much, since no one's home. Report to police? Not that they can do much either, it is afterall a small matter to them. But what's lacking at my neighbourhood is police patrol, or even neighbourhood watch. The neighbourhood watch is only for those who paid them to do it. Not that they go around in the afternoons when the robbers strike. They do it in broad daylight~!!!

My neighbour was robbed in front of her house about 2 weeks ago. She was coming down from her car to open the gate, then the robber came, threaten her at knife point and robbed her~! It happened at about 5-6pm...c'mon~!! daylight robbery....gosh...what neighbourhood am I living in man??? I need to move already... oh ya...and this was the second time that it happened to my neighbour.

A colleague related her story to me, she was surrounded by a group of people with parang...not knife but PARANG when she was walking from her house to her car...they robbed her there and left. happened in PJ...but doesn't mean can't happen anywhere else...

So in conclusion ..there's no such thing as safe anymore. I should be putting my migration plan a few years ahead.... sigh....
