Neighbourhood Watch

Neighbourhood watch scheme, this scheme is an easy scheme to start if all the residents in the area are ready to cooperate with each other. Neighbourhood watch is a crime prevention program that emphasizes on education and common sense. It teaches residents how to protect themselves by identifying and reporting about suspicious people and activity that might take place in their neighbourhood. It gives the residents an opportunity to make their neighbourhood a safer place to live and improve the quality of life of everyone in the area. Neighbourhood watch groups focus on observation and awareness as a means of preventing crime and makes use of different methods to educate and prepare the residents for the important job of taking care of the safety of their area or neighbourhood.

Neighbourhood crime prevention groups are organised around the block, colony or a neighbourhood and these crime prevention groups can be started with the support of law enforcement agencies in that area. In most neighbourhoods in my area they usually employ a security guard from a security company but I am not sure how effective and successful this scheme is, because it is the same guard on duty every single night and at some stage he could be our enemy instead of our friend. If the security was done by the residents on a rotation basis I am sure the scheme would be more successful.

All neighbourhood watches have one thing in mind and that is to bring the community together to make their quality of life in the neighbourhood better and reduce crime rate in their area so they can feel secure. Everyone knows that neighbourhood watch schemes that are carried out now days are very effective in controlling crime in an area.

Residents of that area should request the police to organise workshops that will educate the residents on how to protect themselves and how to prevent crimes from happening , they can also be asked to start self-defense classes for the residents. The success of this scheme totally depends on the residents and their involvement.

Hotel/Motel Scam (This one is so simple it is shocking)

This is kinda scary if only because of how simple it is.

I'll bet this works all too often.

You arrive at your hotel and check in at the front desk. When
checking in, you give the front desk your credit card (for all the
charges for your room). You get to your room and settle in.

Someone calls the front desk and asked for (example) Room 620
(which happens to be your room).. Your phone rings in your room.
You answer and the person on the other end says the following,
'This is the front desk. When checking in, we came cross a problem
with your charge card information. Please re-read me your credit
card number and verify the last 3 digits numbers at the reverse side
of your charge card.'

Not thinking anything you might give this person your information,
since the call seems to come from the front desk. But actually, it
is a scam of someone calling from outside the hotel/front desk.
They ask for a random room number. Then, ask you for credit card
information and address information. Sounding so professional that
you do think you are talking to the front desk.


If you ever encounter this problem on your vacation, tell the caller
that you will be down at the front desk to clear up any problems...
Then, go to the front desk and ask if there was a problem. If there
was none, inform the manager of the hotel that someone called to scam
you of your credit card information acting like a front desk
employee.

This was sent by someone who has been duped........and is still
clearing up the mess....

P.S. Please everyone, help spread the word by forwarding this email
to everyone you know.. Who knows, you might just help someone avoid
a nasty experience.

ANYONE travelling should be aware of this one!

Be Careful !! Must Read!: Torchlights (Stungun)

FOR YOUR INFORMATION, latest weapon used by robbers.

THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT. NO MATTER HOW BUSY YOU ARE, YOU MUST GIVE YOURSELF AT LEAST 3 MINUTES TO READ THIS!

I just thought to let know what my doctor told me recently. I don't think she was lying and neither am I, so please pass this on to your friends. Her clinic is in SS2 and you know how congested that place is.

One morning a few months ago in broad daylight, a girl was getting into her car when a few men approached her with what looked like a torchlight. Quite harmless looking. They pressed the "torchlight" into her back and immediately she went limp and very pale. So she wouldn't be able to fight back, they slashed her thigh with a parang and sped away in her car.

There were many people around and they quickly took her to the nearest clinic which was my doctor's clinic. There were two doctors at that time and they managed to stitch up her wound but the girl remained pulse-less and still pale as paper. No pulse, no BP (blood pressure). Just like dead.

My doctors were confused as to how one wound on the thigh made the girl almost like dead? They managed to revive her and save her life.

After some checking around, the doctors found out what actually happened was that the girl was made unconscious not by a torchlight but actually a high voltage weapon. I forgot how many watts she mentioned. 1000? Anyway, it was high enough to kill a person by electrocution.

It seems this weapon is from China. It's not rampant in Malaysia...yet; but with this thing, a person can rob, rape, kill, kidnap, and practically do anything to you. My doctor said that if the girl weren't taken to the clinic immediately she would have died because there was no pulse on her.

So please just beware of your surroundings, if anybody is lurking around with a torchlight-thingy and approaches you, just scream or run away. Better to be embarrassed than ZAPPED and fried, right? Take care.

Cook Maggie The Correct Way

BE AWARE.....!!! 



Many of us can't do without " Maggi " especially when one is away from home, in a foreign land. Here is a piece of information 
to share so that we can remove the potential health hazard of consuming Maggi.

Maybe you should print this e-mail to keep as a reminder, pin it up in the kitchen or dining room as reminder or in your purse if you are always travelling.

DO NOT IGNORE THIS... :-

Especially those who fond of Maggi...



CORRECT WAY OF 'COOKING NOODLES' :_

The correct way to cook instant noodles without harming our bodies and health: 

Normally, how we cook the instant noodles is to put the noodles into a pot with water, 
throw in the powder and let it cook for around 3 minutes and then it's ready to eat. 

This is the WRONG method of cooking the instant noodles. 

By doing this, when we actually boil the ingredients in the powder,normally with MSG, 
it will change the molecular structure of the MSG, causing it to be toxic. 

The other thing that you may or may not realize is that, the noodles are coated with wax 
and it will take around 4 to 5 days for the body to excrete the wax after you have eaten 
the noodles. 




CORRECT METHOD:



1. Boil the noodles in a pot of water. 

2. Once the noodles are cooked, take out the noodles, and throw away the water which 
contains wax. 

3. Boil another pot of water, add the cooked noodles into the hot boiling water and then 
turn off the stove. 

4. Only at this stage when the stove is off, and while the water is very hot, add the 
flavouring powder into the water, to make noodle soup. 

5. However, if you need dry noodles, remove the noodles and add the flavouring powder 
and toss it to get dry noodles. 

Dietician's Note: 
If you buy plain hakka noodles which you make, you initially need to boil in water and 
discard the water. This will soften the noodles but to prevent it from sticking we need to 
add a tbsp of oil and also the noodles are deep fried partially to make them crunchy and 
then dusted with flour to prevent them from sticking while boiling. Hence when you buy 
the noodles they are already made unhealthy and this is the type we use to make stir fry 
noodles and the regular Maggie too is made the same way, plus they add MSG / Ajinomoto 
and other chemical preservatives. 







A large number of patients with ages ranging from 18-24 years are ending up 
with pancreatitis either as a swelling or infection 
of the pancreas due to regular consumption of instant noodles... 
If the frequency is more than 3 times a week, then it is very hazardous...



Please share this info and help save a life .

Don't Forget to Live!

First I was dying to finish high school and start college

And then dying to finish college and start working

Then I was dying to marry and have children

to grow old enough

so I could come back and work

But then I was dying to retire

And now I am dying ....

And suddenly I realized

I forgot to live.

Please don't let this happen to you

Appreciate the current situation

and enjoy each day

..... old friend


To make money we lose our health,

and then restore our health we lose our money....

We live as if we are never going to die,

and we die as if we never lived.....

Life is very short, so break your silly ego, forgive quickly, believe slowly, love truly, laugh loudly & never avoid anything that makes you smile.

The Day's Motivation


When I woke up this morning lying in bed, I was asking myself;
What are some of the secrets of success in life?
I found the answer right there, in my very room.

Carry a Touch that Never Hurts.

Intellectual Property Crime

Intellectual property crime deals with making and distribution of pirated copies of audio, video or games VCDs or DVDs. All original CDs or DVDs have a security code on the product, so as to protect it from being copied, but if this security code is hacked or broken into making pirated copies can be made easily . Criminals have found way around this security protection. The pirated copies that are thousands in number are smuggled or sold in small outlets or on websites and they bring in good profits. The distributors of the original CDS OR DVDS suffer a huge loss because of piracy.


I would also like to add that any sort of piracy should be stopped. Say no to piracy. Get original VCDs , Audio CDs , DVDs instead.
