Gangsterism seems new for our country but as a matter of fact it has exist here a long time ago. Their existence is not as bad in other developed country.
Gangsterism is common in a developing nation such as Malaysia even here nowadays in Brunei and we have heard a lot about it occurring in schools. It has been reported that in developed countries, schoolchildren are increasingly involved in gangs.
To curb this social ill, parents, educators and society at large should be aware of what is going on among our youths. Though there are various psychological and physical factors that cause a person to choose to become a gang member, here are some basic suggestions for parents/guardians to help nurture their children with love and respect.
Providing the children with a good spiritual and moral background and courage the children to get involved in extracurricular activities and sports at school are some of the ways to teach them on the moral value. Since Bruneian are rich as what outsidersalways said, paents need to teach their children with the value of money; do not spoil them with a big allowance. Set a curfew for your children so they don’t come home too late at night or in the wee hours of the morning.
AMAH is not a solution when your life get so busy. So be aware of changes in your children whether it’s their behaviour or attitude also take interest in your children’s friends to ensure that they are in good company. Luckily in Bnei there is no discos,so it makes work easier but due to the famous places for hangouts like snooker and gaming centres, always need to put your eyes on them. The simplest thing to do is do a spot-check on the place your child frequents and keep your children away from gambling dens, and places that gangsters frequent.
Gangsters are a threat to society and you can be considered a gangster if you are involved in any of these activities:
Extort money from shop owners, hawkers and the like, Receive payment for threatening others or to beat someone up, Protect/cover-up gambling, prostitution, and drug trafficking syndicates,Ransom people for money,Be a part of organised crime,Force anyone to join a gang and its illegal activities,Attend a gang’s swearing-in ceremony and Engage in “table talk” or a fight with other gang members.
Some of the Gang activities
Hurt, injure or cause bodily harm to those who refuse to join the gang.
Collect money from new recruits.
Extort “protection money” from businesses.
Collect “protection money” from entertainment, prostitution and gambling dens.
Beat people up or destroy property of those who refuse to follow the gang’s commands.
Fight with another gang for a “territory”.
Kidnap those who are wealthy for ransom.
Manufacture and store dangerous weapons.
Get paid to collect debts.
As a wrap up, if any of you do not want to see our youth getting worst, lets together fight aganst gangsterism. oh ya....ast saturday i went to Tamu Selera and i saw a group of young boys went to a school boy from SOAS and had a fight.
