I was informed that ntv7 Breakfast Show would have a segment on car security issues, including a demo on disarming car alarms (no specifics, just an overview). The show would be on Feb 26 (Tue) morning.
ntv7 show on car security

No, we should not rely solely on car alarm for total car security.
About the ntv7 show: I do not know the full details on exactly what would be covered, just that they would be talking about car security issues including a demo on how car alarms can be disabled.
They contacted me because they were asking if they could use some of the information I wrote about car security issues in my blog:
Review of Car Security Systems
They might (or might not) use my blog article as their source material. Anyway, they told me the show is targeted for Feb 26 (Tue), so I am hoping everything is on schedule.

No, never safe to rely on only one security feature.

Why and how is our phone better than that?

I don't get it. What is slower, more expensive, and would not work in emergencies?

For those interested in the watching the segment, please tune in (for free but need free registration) at: Tonton website. Search for ntv7 Breakfast Live Show Episode 41. The car security segment begins at about 42:20 minutes for about 15-20 minutes.
They consulted one security firm (T*k*shim*y*) on the car security demo. They used two local cars: one Proton and one Perodua. They disabled the car alarm in 20 seconds. They also mentioned different cars require different techniques to break into the cars. They mentioned high risk areas of car theft are:
- unattended parking lots
- road sides
- LRT stations
- malls
I think at the end, the message is not to depend on our stock/OEM alarm but to upgrade it so it covers more features. Note: those cars they demo did not have immobilizers.
ntv7 copied-and-pasted some car security charts from several sites in their research, but it is a shame they didn't cite the sources which is actually unethical.
Anyway, nothing new that I haven't heard, but it was interesting nonetheless.
