reflection week 12

Term 3 week 4

1)Why is it easy for burglars to break into stalls at the two markets in the Kallang area?

Answers :The burglars were able to break into the stalls as the top of the stalls were open.This is also due to their unwillingness to install safety lock to their stall.Besides that,it also cause a huge amount of money if they were to renovate their stall and insert safety locks and grilles.Therefore,most stall owners does not think about the importance of adding locks to their stall as what they think is important is the huge sums of money they have to spend on .

2)What is the Geylang East Central Merchant's Association going to do about the break-ins?

Answers :They wanted to change the the arrangement of the stall.They also encourage the stall owners to make a changes in their stall.Its better to spend on money for safety reason then losing the sums of money and became a victim of thieves.

3)What do you think should be done to tighten the security of the markets? What do you think of the burglars who brazenly break into the stalls?


Answers : I think that it would be alot safer if they could install a camera in each stall so that if they became a victim,police could easily identified the suspect.This could also help the police by making their work alot more easier.In addition to the stall owner,it would be better if they do not keep their money in the stall. This is usually the cause where they could lost a huge sum of money due to carelesness.The stall owner must also not forget to lock their stall after work time.Mostly,this happens due to workers or stall owners carelesness.I think the burglars who love to break into stalls have nothing better to do .They are either jobless or in debt.Burglars usually find this way a short cut method to solve their debts.For those who are jobless,they take this as an advantage to make money easier.Burglars could be either stupid or lazy for me.
