Interview With CPL Lim


Recently, I was fortunate enough to have an interview session with CPL Lim(above) from our Neighborhood Post regarding the latest crime wave and what are they going to do to put a stop to it.

____________

Me: So tell me more about you.

CPL: I am somebody who have always wanted to be a cop since I was young and putting criminals behind bars was something I have always want to do.

Me: Enjoy your job?

CPL: Yes certainly, what more can I ask for.

Me: Can you tell us more on the spike of the crime wave here on Vic Street recently?

CPL: Indeed, the crime rate is at a all time high now. We are doing what we can to put a stop to this. We are indeed putting all our effort to put a stop to this.

Me: The public deem your 'efforts' are insufficient, what can you say about that?

CPL: To be honest, everyone is working overtime here trying to catch that infamous vandal destroying cars and other properties. Nobody is resting till those culprits are caught and we do have our difficulties as people do not want to step up and help us in catching them. They are not pro-active enough and remember that we can only solve crimes with the help of everyone in the community.

Me: Are there any tips you can give to prevent such vandalism?

CPL: For cars,
  • ALWAYS lock your car doors and close windows, even when "momentarily" going into a house or business.
  • Never leave valuables or other tempting items inside the car where they can be seen.
  • Park in well-lighted areas on the street.
  • Purchase a steering wheel protector and use it every time you leave the car.
  • Do not leave keys hidden on the body of the car. Instead, give an extra key to a trusted
    neighbor or friend.
  • Install a car alarm system. Buy a car stereo system that is theft protected.
For your home,
  • Ask a neighbor to collect your mail and newspapers, and offer to return the favor, or place a
    stop delivery order with the newspaper and post office. Properties known to be unoccupied
    can be targets for vandals.
  • Put an automatic timer on at least one light and a radio. Install photoelectric sensors to turn
    outside lights on and off automatically.
  • Tell a trusted neighbor when you're leaving and when you'll return. Include an itinerary andphone numbers where you can be reached in an emergency.
Me: Thank you for your time CPL Lim.
