PUSH-POCKET IN KUALA LUMPUR
I am sure you all have heard of 'pick pocket'.
A new trend 'push pocket'.
Read on.. for your own good
A few days ago a new type of crime has surfaced in town.
It goes something like this:-
Somebody slips a hand-phone into your pocket,
sometimes it could be just a wallet with
an identity card and a few ringgit.
A few minutes later, the 'owner' comes up
and confronts you, the 'thief '.
He makes a big commotion that you stole his stuff.
You, caught unaware, are then pulled aside by the
'owner' for a settlement. You are intimidated and threatened
that if you do not pay up the police will be brought in.
If you pay up, this 'owner' lets you go.
If not, the police are brought in.
Another strange thing is that there always seems
to be a 'witness' to your 'theft'.
I am told this often happens to foreigners at
the Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA)
or even at LRT trains.
Given that you're 'guilty until proven innocent'
as far as t he Malaysian police are concerned,
I understand some poor people are in jail for
these 'offences'.
At the KLIA, the 'owner' throws his hand-phone and
wallet with the few ringgit notes into the luggage
trolley of a just arrived passenger
The drama unfolds a few minutes later.
The real culprit has easily convinced our Malaysian police
to arrest the real victim (if he has not paid up the 'settlement' demand).
This is a very serious matter.
This is another form of extortionists operating in broad daylight.
They are disgusting criminals who will do anything
to rob and steal. The sickening part of the whole
scenario is that unless you pay the 'quoted settlement' money,
they will put you in real trouble by calling the police.
The real culprit gets back his hand-phone
and wallet but the real victim ( i.e.. could be any one of us)
is thrown into the police lock up and charged in court.
So do be very careful,
otherwise you may end up as a 'thief'
as you have no way to prove your innocence.
Pass it on.....
let more people be aware
of such things around them.
荒谬的GDP!
-
若一个国家以一年财政收入为基础來借贷,它可能是佔收入的30%至50%。例如美国2024年收入是4,9万亿美元,再借1,8万亿美元。那是入不敷出,赤字高达36%。但它们就以GDP
29.2万亿美元为基础,那只是6%。
以上只是一个比例,其实全世界政府都这样做。
大家想一想,若一个家庭五口,有二人工作。以GDP...
