Security

                                   Changing the Guards


Standing at the Post

Keeping watch on those coming

In and out of here





He must be alert

To watch for any trouble

Day and Night to Guard




For our Safety

There must be no compromise

On Security




In early August this year we had to engage a new security provider to man our neighborhood security after the previous one ended its contract. Since a few incidents of breach of security took place,we have to be more strict in enforcing the entry and exits of people coming in and out day and night. Like it or not, we have to hire the guards from Nepal who are reliable and effective. Security cannot be taken for granted.

Dear Hal,
It's just hauntingly real that petty crime is not a bother now. Crime has now been brought to a higher level with hand-bag snatchings( often with grave consequences)sex related crimes ,murders and recently a come-back of kidnappings. All these increase must have been prompted by the difficulty of making a 'living' through house-breaking. What with all the boomgates across public roads mushrooming all over the neighbourhood (now a common feature) No more Rukun Tetangga of old but real security the community readily organise and pays for on their own! I've been told it is most effective!

I am not a criminologist, but I guess as much as you do. Furthermore,our preoccupation with focussing only on certain segments of society and neglecting those deprived of educational opportunities is now showing its grave consequences. This what happens when suboptimization had been happening right from the second World War till now. Our policy makers need to look at our approach to development from different glasses now.
