Love our home
Love |
Home is where our
heart is J that’s show how precious is our home. Of
course, home is where our loved ones and our loved things reside. All of these
need protection all the time, but we are not going to be IN the house for 24
hours every 365 days in a year. Sometimes, we need to leave our home
unattended. But if you are not at home most of the time, probably it is the
high time you move to a hotel room ;p
Thus, let me
share with you 5 possible ways for you to protect your home while you are away.
1. G&G
Guarded
and Gated. Yes, it is quite a luxury to have your own security guard in front
of your main entrance. But if you live in a community that have common security
services, you will need to pay some fee to acquire those services specifically
for your home. However, I do not think this fee is regulated so you might be
paying too much for too little services. The possibility is there.
2. CCTV
This
might be a bigger investment than number 1 but it is very good option if you
have the modal. You just need to ensure that you get the best product and
services. We do not want blurred images from the CCTV, it is not helpful at
all. As in one of the episodes of NCIS Season 8 (if I am not mistaken), they
get double images from the CCTV tape as the tape was overwritten for several
times , yeah…cost cutting that cut the purpose of the CCTV. One more thing, if
you already have CCTV installed at your home, please just ignore the images of ‘not
people’ captured during odd hours in your CCTV recording
3. Magical Illusion
You
have to create an impression that your home is occupied while you are away.
This can be achieved if you use timer to switch on your lamp (during the night)
and switch off the lamp (during the day). But please do not leave your clothes
hang out for days. This is the easiest way outsiders can know the home owner is
away. However, if you do know something (mechanism or robot) that could hang
out the clothes and take it away appropriately, just let me know yeah….. I
prefer the one that can fold the clothes too
;P
4. Lock it Away
Please
purchase a more secure padlock as usually the less secure (most probably the
cheapest one) padlock can be hacked very easily. There is a little hole under
the padlock that if you poke inside it, you could open the padlock without
using any keys.
But please.... not as much as this (palmface) - googled picture - |
5.The Plan A or Plan I or Plan G
With
only minimum 83 cents per day, you could have the assurance that if theft
happened to your home your loss will be minimal. AIG’s Malaysia Theft Protect
plan have 24/7 protection feature which also covers your personal effects and
belonging when you are outside your home, such as during snatch theft. Not only
that, the monthly premium as low as 83 cents per day is fixed, which means there
will be no increase in the future. But the best thing with AIG’s Malaysia Theft
Protect plan is hassle-free as no declaration on your personal valuables, household
items and personal effect is needed when you purchase this insurance. You can

Hopefully the
tips above are helpful to ensure your loved ones or things get protected at all
times J
