ANOTHER LOUD ANONYMOUS WRITER

Happy New Year to all!

Hope you had a wonderful year end celebration. Lately, there have been some anonymous comments that were sent in to be posted on our website but instead of it just being comments, it has now taken prominence in the form of a written article. I just cannot resist responding to it. Read on what the anonymous writer has written and then read our response. Happy Reading...!

I AM A RESIDENT OF USJ4.

THANK GOD, FOR THE MOMENT WE DO NOT HAVE AS YET A GNG.

MY USJ HOUSE HAS BEEN BROKEN IN A FEW YEARS AGO BUT I AM ONE OF THE MANY RIGHT THINKING PEOPLE WHO DO NOT BELIEVE WE HAVE THE RIGHT TO BARRICADE PUBLIC ROADS TO THE INCONVENIENCE OF ALL.

JUST BECAUSE YOU FEAR FOR YOUR PROPERTY OR LIVES YOU GO TO THE EXTREME.

YOU ALL ARE PROBABLY BARRICADED BY SECURITY FIRMS WHO TAKE YOUR MONEY AS PROTECTION MONEY.

YOU ALL CLAIM TO HAVE THE MAJORITY SUPPORT- SHOW ME ALL THE NAMES, ADDRESSES, TELEPHONE NUMBERS AND SIGNATURES!

EVEN IF YOU HAVE 100 PER CENT RESIDENTS' SUPPORT, WHAT YOU ARE DOING IS STILL VERY, VERY WRONG. IT IS NOT JUST BECAUSE OF THIS PERSON GILBERT OR WHAT.

YOU ARE MERELY ENJOYING A FALSE SENSE OF SECURITY- SO LONG AS YOU ALL ARE IN THE PROTECTION ARMS OF SO-CALLED SECURITY GUARDS.

WHO GIVES YOU THE RIGHT TO STOP VEHICLES?

PARANG-WIELDING AND GUN-TOTTING ROBBERS AREN'T SCARED OF YOUR GUARDS EVEN IF THEY ARE ARMED.

THERE HAVE ALREADY BEEN CASES WHERE GNG IN USJ HAVE REPORTED BREAK-INS, ROBBERIES ETC.

YOU ARE ALL KIDDING YOURSELF AND TAKING THE LAW INTO YOUR OWN HANDS.

SINCE CRIME IS SO RAMPANT EVERYWHERE, YOU CAN EVEN BE ROBBED IN A SHOPPING CENTRE, CAR PARK ETC.

OUR RESPONSE:

Oh well, here we go again! Here is another coward who goes behind the ‘ANONYMOUS’ brand. This poor soul is probably very worked up about the sprouting of G&G everywhere so much so he/she has to resort to write such comments which I have decided it deserve more prominence.

The writer is so generous to robbers as his/her house was broken into and yet did nothing to help him/herself and yet declared him/herself “RIGHT THINKING PEOPLE”!

HELLLLOOOOOO????!! “RIGHT THINKING PEOPLE?”

You should be in Tanjung Rambutan and have your head examined! And there are only a few of you – lets face it. Look at the many G&G schemes coming up. Why are there so many now? Rational thinking - more of us (RIGHT THINKING PEOPLE) and less of you (LEFT THINKING PEOPLE??).

We pay the security money as protection money – you are so right about that. To at least have some form of protection against crime. And that has been proven as we have brought the crime rate down significantly since we started and we are still sleeping easy.

And oh, you dispute the fact that we have the majority and wanted to see the signatures and all. Sure, no problem – who are we going to show to when we do not know who you are? If you are not a coward then what are you? Show yourself and we will show you the proof. We have nothing to hide unlike you!

And yes, you are right we have taken the law into our own hands and yes, we have created what you have termed “false sense of security” but hey listen we are cool with that as what we have created has done its job and that is kept us safe for the last year plus or so. I will come to the law issue in a minute.

And oh by the way, who is “GILBERT”?? We only know G-I-B-L-E-T the pest we call him. So if you are referring to the same person then we have good news for you. There is a strong rumor that he is moving out of our area. From the majority of the residence we say - "Good riddance to bad rubbish" – know what I mean?

You are heaving a sigh of relief that living in USJ4 has made the situation better for you as you do not have G&G. Well, keep it that way as the robbers and thieves will eventually have nowhere to go except to USJ4 and maybe to your house. And you have recognised this fact as you have thanked god as you have YET to have G&G in USJ4. I guess since you put it that way, it is only a matter of time!

Another point, we know the law is not on our side but I have news for you. The ruling government is looking into changing the guidelines to ensure that G&G will be at least legal as they recognized that it has proliferated to the point that it is now widely accepted by the majority. This was highlighted in the Key Results Area (KRA) as announced by our Prime Minister recently at the Sunway Convention Centre.

You don't believe me? Ok, contact the Minister in charge of the KPIs and let him tell you personally.

So bottom line, it is only a matter of time before the law will be on our side – then what?. But for now I guess you will just have to put up with the “unlawfulness” of this G&G thingy. And to ensure that we don't get robbed in places outside our G&G, one of the KRA identified is to increase police presence in hot spots. That's what the government intends to do anyway.

But hey, do keep staying in USJ4, as one fine day when your neighbours cannot take the intrusion and abuse by the thieves and robbers anymore (as by then, they have no more place to go and rob people) they may then start a G&G and guess what? You will have another fight on your hands! Good luck.

Lastly, you must be a lazy person as you do not know the use of caps lock on your keyboard! Unless of course you want to type your article ‘loudly’!!! Yes, that must be it – point taken.
