Family 1st May 1st Robbery!

Yes you heard me. First Robbery on First May 2007. On PapaJoneh’s First Non-Working Labour Day with my Family. This bugger decided to take his annual leave and robbed me early in the morning.
Check this picture. This is the scene when my wife got up early and went down at around 6am. What a SHOCK! All doors open. Toilet, rear door and even the grilled door! How this possible!!?
![]()

MommyJosh immediately ran up[yes she ran up the stairs together with our 5 months baby twins in the stomach, to wake me up!]. I was like blur blur and but funny never thought it was a dream. I sprang up and ran down passed my wife to see the horror as pictured above. I immediately shout, Oh NO!!! “Nah kan. Sudah bilang mau pasang kamera!” [translated as: Told ya, we should have installed the camera!]. Yea, I know stupid of me. As if the camera can help!
I went to the living room. What a shock again. Nothing happened or missing. It was like, aikkk, tiada apa-apa pun hilang[strange, nothing missing??!!] Phheww. The TV’s there with all the Astro decoder, DVD players and even our new Epson Stylus printer. My Desktop PC is still there, so what’s missing? If nothing missing, whats the catch here?
After thorough checking, well, the Blardie Bastard Burglar stole my cash and coins from the Fengshui boat.

All gone. It only amounted to around RM50 to RM60, I think so, but how in the world he knows that. Even my relatives and parents do not know i put there. Further check confirmed, he stole my new pair of leather shoes and MommyJosh new Perfume, like 3 bottles in total, costing around RM350.
Check the rear grilled door padlocks. Nicely put on the cloth.

Now here the interesting part. The Hanger tool again. See how creative this bugger. He even got time to tie it up all nicely done and used all my materials. That’s the tent pole i put at the back of the house.

Police came around 7:30am after contacting the Penampang Police Hotline number 088 712222.

Now, here the interesting part. There’s a house behind mine that is under major renovation and every day, obviously the workers there can see what we are doing here. Police noticed about this and will do the check later on.

Had one blogger, robbed just one week ago. Now its my turn. Yes, “Pasang lampu terang-terang(brightly lit up) also” and even with all the grill installed, but still broken into. What more to say? Just fated. I am glad while all this ordeal, MyJosh was asleep soundly. The End. ![]()

I feel sorry for you papa. Hope all is well to you
May 1st, 2007 at 4:59 pm
thanks anthraxxxx. We Papafamily all ok. thats the most important thing. Im in the process looking for Ip camera now
thanks again.
May 1st, 2007 at 5:14 pm
that house under renovation definitely look suspicious.
May 1st, 2007 at 5:18 pm
yea … but i could not do anything. the only thing can do his lock everything again.. and purposely make them see i installed camera around the house. I probably get a dog.. LOL.
May 1st, 2007 at 6:00 pm
Aiyoh. Thank God they did not do anything further than stealing coins and perfume. Looking at those photo’s, they must have taken time to stay outside your house while doing their Mc Gyver thingy….
Good idea. Get a dog at least. It will be the first line of defense…
What’s important is that the family is alright.
May 1st, 2007 at 6:21 pm
Are you going to install an alarm system in your house?
May 1st, 2007 at 6:37 pm
Aiks, scary lah. Now, I wonder did the buglar read Cedric’s blog and learn the modus operandi? I know lame joke, just to keep Papa & family smiling after all the trauma. Lucky they only took the small stuffs and not ransacked the whole house terbalik. Or worse..
May 1st, 2007 at 7:01 pm
Kay, thank GOD he wasn’t that fully Mcgyver… it will be worst.
Anthraxxxx, yes soon. like very soon.
Lilian: Thanks. Papafamily ok. they did ransacked a bit… but only downstairs… didn’t get the shot. Police asked not to touch anything while they do the CSI thing. so forgotten to take the pic.
Now, MommyJosh really worry when im out working.
May 1st, 2007 at 7:42 pm
Are those “Solex” padlocks? How did they manage to open those?
May 1st, 2007 at 8:03 pm
Sorry to hear about the robbery, PapaJoneh. Yeh, I think it’s a good idea to have at least TWO dogs in your home. Get a German Sheperd and a Labrador is possible.
But dogs also no use. Back home in KK, we have 2 dogs, Rottweiler lagi, and still those bugger could sneak in and put “jampi” on us, everyone tidur mati and they have all their sweet time to open up our bags (this is happening right BESIDE US while we sleep). They managed to get away with some jewelleries and RM30k cash. *sigh*
May 1st, 2007 at 8:28 pm
is a good thing no one is hurt, that’s enough to be thankful
May 1st, 2007 at 8:39 pm
Papajoneh, I’m sorry to hear what happened to you. Well after that incident that occurred in my house, we fixed 4 surveillance cameras and also ALARMS, which means whenever someone tries to open something, the vibration will cause the alarm to rang. So I guess after this you need to consider some safety steps for your house. Sorry to hear that anyway!
May 2nd, 2007 at 1:20 am
Hmmm~ It all seem well-planned.
Dogs, can’t really do anything.
But hey, they bark and it will alert you, might even scare the burglars away~
I’m going to get i-robot~
May 2nd, 2007 at 1:40 am
Thanks everyone. Now Papa is fully awake. Installed new locks. just in case he’ll be back with friends. Installed magnetic alarm at the doors, windows. Any opening triggers the irritating sounds of the alarm. Installed mock red blinking LED along with mock camera, for the time being. I hope it will be last time.
May 2nd, 2007 at 2:00 am
Sad to hear that. Luckily noone was harm. I had a similar experience 2 years back.
My house grill was forced opened and they ransacked my ground floor. My loss much more. 2 handphones, 2 notebooks. At that time my alarm was out due to lighthing strike.
Suggest that you fix alarm. Better protection.
May 2nd, 2007 at 2:05 am
First Cedric, now you … >.
May 2nd, 2007 at 2:13 am
I guess i have to stay awake till morning 6am. Champs League semi final ON now. I really hope no one coming at this hour again. MommyJosh and MyJosh is sleeping now. GOD, protect us from all evils. Amen.
flsam: I will installed one. hopefully we survive tonite. i just can’t sleep.
MeiQ: yes, Cedric case really scary too.. coz they tried, opened the grill already. thats really scared me.
May 2nd, 2007 at 2:49 am
It should be fine. Football end at 4.30am. U are guarding till am today.
Me too watching football now. Hahaha
May 2nd, 2007 at 4:14 am
PapaJoneh is a part-time security guard now. LOL!
I also watching soccer now. Haha!
May 2nd, 2007 at 8:45 am
waiting for the liverpool praising update jfc. i got home right at the end of full time going into extra. my question is what is “aggregate score 1-1″ was the game score 1-nil? how did that work with going into extra? im a silly american so im not too familiar with the fancy soccer workings.
thanks
sorry about your intruder, photos hopefully will help, what a crazy rig they made
May 2nd, 2007 at 10:18 am
Omg….Thank God your family is safe and sound. Jeez…people are getting more and more desperate each day.
May 2nd, 2007 at 12:11 pm
Luckily your family is safe. Looks like this burglar must have observed your family before making his move. Change your locks and probably add more.
May 2nd, 2007 at 12:14 pm
sry to hear bout this.. thank god noone’s hurt. the dudes from the renovation most suspicious lo. seems like they only go for smth they can use. (money, perfume, shoes)
May 2nd, 2007 at 12:36 pm
hcfoo, thanks. yes new set of padlocks. more expensive one and even MommyJosh said use the dog’s chain too
anna: thanks for dropping by. Yea, they’re the suspected one. They everyday can see us. I just Thank GOD, that’s all they took.
May 2nd, 2007 at 3:51 pm
kingfisher there a lot more scary.. burglars can literally walk into our house coz developer dun make fence high enuf
May 2nd, 2007 at 8:30 pm
Sorry to hear that. I am suspicious of the workers from the house under renovation somehow. Anyway, hope the police catch that burglar
May 2nd, 2007 at 9:44 pm
I’m just glad that you and your family are unharmed. Safety first, money will come.
May 2nd, 2007 at 10:33 pm
Poor you! Luckily nobody got harmed.
May 3rd, 2007 at 1:06 am
Poor babes! I’m sorry that you had to go through that. Is there any way that you can put a dart gun in front of the door and fix it so that when the door is opened at night the darts will shoot off at the burglar?
May 3rd, 2007 at 3:32 am
Gaman, thanks for dropping a comment here. So far no policeman feedback yet. But Im sure the intruder will die of choking later on… or probably already dead as at typing when he used my fengshui boat money to buy food.
but good tactic nevertheless 
Azmeen, yes, thanks. safety first. as at now, im still awake at 3am, online, watching tv on 2nd floor while keeping all my ears and cricket bat ready.
Jewelle: Thank GOD we were all ok. Thinking back, quite scary that MommyJosh is the one who gone downstair first to check the house.
Kween: never thought of that
May 3rd, 2007 at 8:54 am
so anything missing?
May 3rd, 2007 at 8:56 am
Aiyoh. Bad Luck! But luckily everyone is unharmed eh?
May 3rd, 2007 at 11:03 am
ermm, thank god they didn’t harm your family . alarm and cctv is a must nowadays . heheh if u want me to fix it , i got small part ime cctv+alarm business . heheheh
May 3rd, 2007 at 11:45 am
Wahhhh! Seems like lots of burglaries these days huh. Dun keep too much valuables at home. Luckily family and Joshare not harmed, but still have to take precautions.
May 3rd, 2007 at 2:00 pm
massy.. missing items as above..

sasha: bad luck indeed. on my 1st labour day with my family in like 10 years..working working working.
kucau: where are u? are u in KK, Sabah? If u, please contact me. use the contact page.
eastcoastlife: Papasfamily ok and no valuable anyway at home. well, not so valuable for them.. but i got like RM10,000 just in my radio control items. probably the guy did not know its value.
thanks all for your care. i appreciate remember u all.
May 4th, 2007 at 2:00 am
Hope the damage ain’t too bad there papa, this kinda shit happens but shit won’t happen to good ppl like urself twice!
May 4th, 2007 at 2:30 am
A little nontech trick my aunt used to do when we lived in the islands..Her door opened inside and it was the kind that has a couple of brackets on either side of the door frame and a wood beam goes on it to prevent anyone from coming in. She had a coffee can with some pennies and small rocks inside that she would put on top of the beam every night. If someone were to try to open the door at night, the can would fall making a loud noise. Might be the least expensive option out there.
May 4th, 2007 at 1:25 pm
Jian: Thats very a nice thing to say. thanks.
Thanks. All.Thanks. Papafamily owe u all lots.
Kween: That’s very cool non techie trick. I probably used that
Remind me, if ever Papa did not remember u all. Im not 40 yet, but recently been forgetting lots of things. so bear with me. Love u all.
May 5th, 2007 at 12:25 am
fuyoh… lucky u all alright!!! yeah.. pasang lampu janganlah.. kedekut yea.
May 5th, 2007 at 12:39 am
yea, now at 12:38am, midnite, still not asleep. ever since that day, i can’t sleep already. The house is like on Christmas time. all lit up.
May 5th, 2007 at 5:56 pm
Wah!!! pap, you are much more lucky than me leh. I lost a total of rm60k last year when the robbers masuk my parents house. It was a weekend and I were suppost to bring my jewels back to place it in the safe box. But b4 i can do so, the robbers already got my stuff
May 6th, 2007 at 11:25 am
Erina, im sorry to hear that. i understand how u feel. yea, a bit lucky here with that lesser cash stolen. but still feeling bad of the unwelcome entrance. hopefully it is the last one
July 19th, 2007 at 4:52 pm
my experience: house break 3 times (including twice in a few days), with one while i was alone in the house. All happened overseas. Lost: hifi, fridge, video, TV.
