Twitter- Are We Just Wasting Time?

Birdie-Birdie Num-Num

There were times that I felt Twitter was really one great  way to get up-dated information.

These days looking at what goes on Twitter, I think it is just one big waste of time.

Looking at what the politicians in Malaysia are doing with it and on it, certainly confirms it.

We really deserved these nuts in office if we want to be non-judgmental with the kind of garbage they are spewing on the internet!

Robberies, Business Security and Safety

Turning your backs?

I always advocated this:

If you want to attract foreign investment,there must be two pre-conditions.

Firstly, there must be law and order.

Secondly, there must be legal remedy if a wrong is done.

I fear we are coming short on both counts.

Politics aside, I think the fear factor has ratcheted up many times over the years.

Public perception of the police has taken an all time low especially  with the high rate of robberies, snatch thieves and lately even rapes of civilians at police stations.

As usual, the political football was panned out and PR exercises were offered with statistics ponied up that crime rate has gone down....way-way down.

Do we feel relieved?

Why Me, Worry?

No, wonder why?

Are we fooling ourselves or just attempting to protect the tourism trade?

I had a drink with a friend yesterday. He had to close his business down because his factories were hit time and again by the same group of robbers until no insurance companies wanted to cover his factories. He has appealed to all parties-from political parties, to the police and even the local taikohs for action but to no avail. If you trade in  businesses that utlises aluminum and copper, expect to be robbed dry!

As for the law, they do not seem to be effective!
