A lot of times, when you see news like gangster gaduh, people getting shot (basically targeted assassinations') , those bike muggers and etc, then everyone come and say Malaysia not safe lar, that lar, or whatever.

My own 2 cents after travelling extensively in my 24 year career, Malaysia is a safe enough country, public safety is not comparable to Japan or Singapore or China, but we are much better than the rest of our Asean neighbours and also of course we are much better than places like UK, States, lotsa country from Europe. We are of course way way better than Latin America, Africa.

So safety is basically a perception, if a person has live all his life in Malaysia, then he wont have any thing to compared too. I think a lot of Malaysians do not know what is "No Safe". When you walk down certain streets in Rio..that is not safe, when you go to certain areas in London during the wrong time, you are not safe. The not safe in this case is probably gonna get mug and killed.

Just bincangkan......and if can keep it cordial lar, not everything need to kow peh...betul tak.
