Nuisance callers dial up a 999 logjam
A Plot-driven Story
Complaints about noise pollution from neighbour, reports of sightings of snakes, being an 24/7 information bureau, prank calls...etc. What do the policemen who pick up the phone on their shifts have to listen to every day? Now, even the police are complaining about the number of unimportant calls they receive in a day. The calls are jamming up the whole system and those with really important cases are lagging behind, just because of some prank calls! Why are people so inconsiderate? They might think it is fun, but imagine someone saw Mas Selamat or whoever else at anytime and any place, and tried reporting it but was lagged behind by th jam in the system of calling, and the criminal ran away, wouldnt everyone's life be at a risk, even yourself?
Think twice before u really decide to call the police. Is it important? Are there any other hotlines to call for this particular matter? I suggest that the police must check the prankster's number so that they will be scared and stop calling. Do you think it is very funny, irritating a policeman just doing his job receiving calls? I hope that more people and all the pranksters out there will stop it. Let them have a taste of their own medicine when they call again. This time, they will be called through a private number continuosly. Help crime prevention and stop messing up the system of calling the police station.
