Is the law and order in Malaysia very poor?

The public security situation in Malaysia is relatively safe, but in recent years, social unrest and public security situation have declined. The Malaysian government attaches great importance to this and is strengthening governance. However, there is still a period of time before social peace and worry-free travel. Therefore, when China citizens come to Malaysia, they should pay attention to self-protection, take good care of their personal belongings and important documents, and don't show their money in public to prevent accidents.

(1) Beware of motorcyclists grabbing bags. Malaysia has a considerable number of motorcycles. Motorcycles have no special lanes, and they shuttle between cars at a very fast speed. If tourists walking on the sidewalk are not careful, their handbags or shoulder bags may be robbed by criminals. Because of the fast and strong looting, tourists are prone to danger. Tourists from Malaysia are advised not to use long bags when walking in public places. When walking, put your bag on the far side of the road and choose a crowded section to pass.

(2) Don't trust others easily. Passengers who come to Malaysia with ordinary visas should not believe the temptation of local illegal intermediaries and stay in Malaysia illegally to find jobs. According to Malaysian law, ordinary visa holders are not allowed to work in Malaysia. Once they are found by the police, they may be arrested and sent to prison or detention camp, leaving them without jobs, unable to go home, wasting a lot of agency fees and living in Malaysia.

(3) Avoid traveling to remote places. It is best to travel together. When passing through underground passages, garages, high-rise stairs or overpasses with few people, you should be vigilant and pay attention to pedestrians around you to avoid distress and helplessness.

(four) properly manage personal travel documents, do not give your passport to others for safekeeping. It is best to carry valuables scattered.

(5) Enhance the awareness of self-protection, be calm, and deal with problems flexibly and tactfully. If there is an accident, report it to the police station as soon as possible or contact the embassy or consulate as far as possible if you can save yourself.
