The BN Government Must Combat Rampant Crime Rate to Restore Basic Trust (Chinese & English Text)

民主行動党民都魯支部主席,砂羅越州民主行動党署理主席及砂羅越州吉都隆區立委周政新2O09年9月12日文告如下:

吉都隆区州立委周政新说当人民在饱受治安不靖苦果的时候，国阵政府应该提出一套解决问题的方案以恢复人民对他的信心。

我感到遗憾的是，国阵政府近年来正当人民在喊求救的时候他们却充当聋子，把人民的心声当做耳边风。这么久来，连一个积体的解决方案来帮人民解决问题也没有。结果今天州内的治安问题每况愈下，变得越来越猖狂。

例如近月来民省内偷窃案件又频频发生，每天都一两宗。小偷撬开铁花，爬入屋内，偷走屋主的电脑，手提电话与金器等。人民不但损失了财务，更为自身及家人的安全感到不安。

周氏指出假如这些偷窃案件没有即时竭止，恐怕会越演越烈，届时再来收拾恐怕已是太晚了。

周氏又说人民对偷窃案件已感到气愤，真的是受不了了。前些时候偷窃者专偷豪华汽车，今天又入屋偷窃。试问偷窃和抢劫案件到底要到何时才会了决，以恢复国阵所谓的“砂州人间天堂”的真面目。

国阵政府应该知道今天州内偷窃抢劫案件的发生已变本加厉。除了警方须革新与壮大来建立起他的威信及效能，政府更应该从社会，不道德商业，外劳等病态所引发偷，抢窃案件来下手，减低社会的贫穷，让更多的人有就业机会，并灌输正确的道德，人生观及信仰。

我希望国阵政府不要在面对州内治安不靖时显得那么无能，什么都没做，忍心的让人民自生自灭。该是时候政府站出来实际的为人民做一点事了。


周政新。


Media Statement by Chiew Chin Sing, Chairman DAP Bintulu Branch,DAP Sarawak Deputy Chairman and Sarawak State Assemblyman for Kidurong on 12th Sept., 2009.

State Assemblyman for Kidurong Chiew Chin Sing said that it is high time that the BN government come out with a set of answers to combat the rampant crime rate in our state so as to restore the basic trust of the people in its government.

What is most regrettable is that while the people are crying out for help yet the government is playing deaf, as if they just cannot hear. For so long already there is not even an answer to help the people in facing with theft cases. As a result security and peace in our state is getting worse and worse and thieves are getting more and more daring.

Take for example theft cases in Bintulu which happen almost everyday for the past few months. Thieves are breaking security grills and entering into homes, stealing laptops, hand phones, jewels, cash and others. The people lost not only their property but also are worried about the safety of themselves and their family members.

Chiew pointed out that if we do not stop these smaller house break in cases at its early stage, it may evolve into more serious crime and it may be too late then to deal with it altogether anymore.

Bintulu folks are very angry already with the thieves stealing here and there and they really had enough. A while back it was the stealing of the luxurious 4 wheel drives and today break in and stealing household goods. When is this all going to end so as to return Sarawak to its “heaven on earth” slogan as being boasted by the BN leadership few years back.

The BN government ought to know that house break ins and other crimes are getting and more serious in our state and apart from reforming the police force, government should also tackle crime from other angles like the social, commerce, migrant workers, education and others. We need to drastically reduce our poverty rate while increasing our work opportunity and to instil the right moral values and religion in our folks.

I hope that the BN government would not continue to look that helpless in facing the crime, doing practically nothing, letting out people all alone by themselves to deal with the crime. It is about time that the BN government should stand up and be counted in doing something for the people.

Chiew Chin Sing.
