Just a suggestion. For crimes like murder, armed robbery, armed theft, snatch thief that causes death, put them in front of a firing squad? China has been doing that all the while, I am sure China is doing it right considering the country is growing rapidly and will soon overtake USA as the #1 super power in the world.

Or maybe practice Islamic laws? e.g. steal with right hand, we chop their right hand off. that way, they don't need to be jailed. afterall, 1 person only has 2 hands, if after chopping their right hand off, they still rob with their left, we just chop their left hand off. thereafter i doubt he can commit crime anymore. if he is creative and determined and use his legs, we can chop those off too! I'm pretty sure its a very good deterrent.

I have a problem sir. If you are convicted for stealing and your left hand was chopped off, later the smart AG found out "oh sir sorry, now we found the real culprit, wrong verdict. Maaf." Is that alright for you? "No problem YB, just a misunderstanding. Just give me back my hand will do."

It is okay too, then we chop off the YB's hand in return! Then I assure you our YB's won't have so many misunderstandings. Anyway, he can make 2 misunderstandings only. If he make more than 2, I think its safe to say we want him replaced. Who would want an AG who have so many "misunderstandings" in power? DO YOU?

This my friend, is called true accountability.

All I can say...in extreme times, we use extreme measures.

Talk is cheap, so I collected data of crime statistics in Malaysia. The crime statistics released by the Department of Statistics, Malaysia showed that most of the crime from 1999 to 2003 and 2011 occurred in densely populated and wealthier states: Kuala Lumpur, followed by Selangor, then Johor and Pulau Pinang experienced the highest crime rates for both property and violent crime categories in Malaysia.

Furthermore, crime statistics compiled by Habibullah and Baharom in 2008 showed that the crime rates in Malaysia in the last three decades (1973-2003) rose between 1 to 8% per year. More than 80% of the crime committed during this period were related to property crimes such as burglary, vehicle theft, and larceny.

But worryingly, violent or serious crimes (such as murder, robbery, rape, and assault) have increased by a larger margin of between 4 to 10% per year. In 1973-82, violent crime contributed 9.5% of the total crime in Malaysia, but its contribution has risen to 13.5% in 1993-2003.

Did you verify the data for authenticity or a copy paste job? Just asking.

No, I did not verify the data which would be like auditing the data reported by Dept of Statistics, Malaysia. The data I got from their public report as listed in the Sources.

I drew the chart myself based on the data.

Lol, now I know why. 2004-2010 was the period which they felt inappropriate to show. Looking the the prison population during that period it does make sense for the blackout data.

 

[pwhyze]

Nice, at least some numbers.

I guess we will never know how accurate this is, but why would they made up data that indicates rising crime rate as opposed to a decreasing one right?

So the reality is, more crime is being committed and the violent ones are increasing. That answers the thread starter's question nicely then.

Good job with the stats. Wonder how it compares with other countries.

Can compare with other countries where guns are easily obtain and they have the right to own one...
Since the shooting spree is almost the same as a particular country now
