MCPF: Keep register of students’ phones

GEORGE TOWN: Teachers should keep a register of students’ handphone models and serial numbers as a precaution against theft, said Ma-laysian Crime Prevention Foundation (MCPF) vice-president Datuk Kamarudin Md Ali.

“By allowing students to bring handphones and IT gadgets to school from next year, there is bound to be theft, and keeping a register can be a precautionary step,” he told reporters after the launch of the Children and Crime programme at Universiti Sains Malaysia here yesterday.
