In 2019, a total of 16,497 house break-ins were reported nationwide, according to the Department of Statistics Malaysia. This statistic indicates the urgent need for effective crime prevention. Each figure in this statistic represents a safe haven violated, a sense of peace disrupted.

When it comes to securing our homes – our personal sanctuaries – understanding crime and how to prevent it becomes a necessity rather than an option.
