To be safe and sound

So yeterday I was happily playing my games and suddenly the house phone which is next to me rang. I picked up the phone as usual and that is what everyone does. When I pick up the phone, I knew it was a stranger because I can recognize people by their voice most of the time. Then I remember one day I was taking a nap my mom gets a call from a stranger which trying to flirt with her too. So I knew it was the same bastard on the spot. ( You will understand why do I call him a bastard if you continue the story and praise me please, I don't usually respond this fast but this time I can guess it was him immediately. such a improvement. ) I was really pissed already when I heard my mom talk about it. Then of course I would not sound friendly in the phone anymore.

I asked him who is him and he told me a name which I don't remember, it was some thing like Ah Ming or whatever. Then the conversation continues with his crap that he wants to be friend. Of course I have met some strangers trying to be friend just by simply call a number. I was not surprised. So I scolded him and I said his is disturbing us. He sounded mad and reply: :"I disturb? I was trying to be friend." but I continue to said he is disturbing us. Then he sounded really mad and started to threatening me. I was not afraid and I asked him : "So you threatening me now? Do you know I can report to the police?" He was not afraid either. The conversation continues with his crap trying to be friend again and I hang up the phone.

I went to told my parents about it but within 2 minutes he called again. I picked up the phone again and I remain silence. He asked me why do I remain silence so I told him I thought he was trying to waste his money by simply calling someone, that's why I just remain silence and let the phone call continue. but it din't last long and I hang up again. This bastard has no idea how to give up AND HE FUCKING CALLED AGAIN. I picked up and hang up in 2 seconds. wtf. Then my mom just take the phone away making it unavailable to call. Then finally peaceful day has come and bastard is gone.

I was really pissed when he was threatening me. ( But I din't scold a bad word in the whole conversation, quite regret because he deserved some.) I wonder what is wrong with the society? Since when calling a strange number to make friend is legal? I mean calling a strange number has nothing wrong but disturb people like this? I don't think so. Threatening a person is definitely illegal. I have no idea what was those people thinking when they did such thing. Not only to the bastard that had called, but everyone else that threaten the others. Some of you might think it is not a big deal but try to think further. Now they are threatening with words, but some of them might get worse, what if some day they are threatening with human? What if they are kidnapping in the future?

Most of you know that the place we are living now, Malaysia is having safety issue now. How often do you heard about crime? We always heard about people got robbed, or some of you even personally had the experience already. Myself also have a few friend who come over my house and nearly or had already got robbed when they are on their way home. And that was 2 years ago. In 2 years, what I see is the place is getting dangerous even though the government claim that the index crime fell. That is what we heard but there are more behind the report. I am lazy to type more here so if you are interested you can refer to ''the post" written by Audrey from fourfeetnine.com when her brother nearly got robbed.

Not that I would blame everything to the government, but the issue need a resolution. Ourselves also need to gather our power and do something. We can't sit and wait for help, we need to help ourselves. There are few things that we can help ourselves.

1. The man who are physically stronger should take the responsibility to protect the women and the kids.
2. The female should be aware of the danger too. Have some common sense and try to avoid walking alone at night.
3. Do not talk to stranger.
4. Learn some martial arts.
5. Use a reputable taxi firm and preferably share a cab if possible.
6. Always make sure your wallet and your phone are safe when you are on a public transport.
7. Bring a anti-rape device.
8. Tell your family where are you going so that they will be aware if you are late home.
9. Do not publish your location all the time to avoid from being followed.
10. Go do research yourself. I have no idea already.

Why do we wait for the cops to catch a criminal after they had done the crime? We should be aware and give no chance for them to harm us. To live in a safe place or not, it is all your choice. Make a change, you have no idea what would happen.
