Haven’t posted for a while now - been busy with doing a whole lot of nothing!

Ok so here we go.. This has been bugging me for a few weeks now and every time I watch the local news or even just talk with friends etc. it seems to me that the crime rate in GenSan is steadily increasing. Well, that’s something aside from the increase number of malls that seems to be “growing” here in GenSan.

Crime seems to be steadily increasing here in GenSan ranging from the usual stealing from stores, akyat bahay, to motorcycle “carnaps” and motorcycle holdups. I know that with the growth of any given city inevitably comes the increase in petty theft and crime - it just seems that very little is done about it here and only a very very small percentage of wrong doers get caught. Don’t even get me started about all the violent crimes like stabbing and shootings!

Makes you wonder where all the cops are in GenSan and what they are doing doesn’t it? Oh and wasn’t GenSan’s finest awarded something this year for best something something nationwide? (Doing a bit of goooooogle-ing)

Here we go! -  best city police office and a bunch of auther crap regionally. Guess the percentage of crime and unsolved cases was not a factor here!

(more on that here - http://www.gensantos.com/2011/08/09/gensan-pnp-office-awarded-best-city-police-office-nationwide/

Now, I have nothing against cops personally but just really believe that they should get off their fat asses and start making a move! Do more patrols, be around the city more (and im not only talking about hanging around malls) - see and be seen! How would they be able to respond to any incidents in a reasonable amount of time if they are hiding away all the time?

I guess there is a bigger and better chance of safety and security if the citizens of GenSan become more vigilant and organized themselves. Wag nang i-asa sa iba ang kaya nating gawin! Siguro naman we will do better since we will be doing something, which is a lot more than nothing! hehe!
