“不要只是袖手旁觀”。阿末扎希。

治安日益敗壞，執法人員鞭長莫及，民眾惟有力求自保，這些都是無可否認的事實。花園住宅區居民自動自發組居民協會、花錢聘用保安人員、在住宅區路口設保安亭圍欄杆，防範盜賊上門。更積極的行動，則是組織夜間巡邏隊或志願警衛團，加強巡邏工作，這些協助維護住宅區治安，為警察分擔一部份職責的民眾，乃以華裔佔大多數。維護社會治安，讓人民安居樂業，原本應是軍警人員的職責，人民因為生命財產安全受威脅，不得已想方設法力求自保，這些現象在吉隆坡尤為普遍，凸顯部長的“袖手旁觀”之說，十分荒謬無理。

GEORGE TOWN: The fight against crime never takes a break – as shown by a policeman on holiday here from China who helped catch a snatch thief.

Luo Yong, 40, was taking a photograph of his wife, Dai Qi, strolling along the tourist spot Love Lane when a motorcyclist came from behind and grabbed her handbag.

He immediately pounced on the man and shoved him off his vehicle during the 9.30pm incident on Tuesday.
