The Perils of Staying in Hostel

If you are a resident in my hostel, you will either:
a) Heard of someone's room that was burgled
b) Know of a friend whose valuables were stolen from his room; or
c) Was burgled before

It's becoming a serious situation, and people's nerves are being tested. Security is relatively weak even with the presence of a guard at every block. The security mindset of the guards are a real joke. At the occurence of a theft, guards will become diligent and note down everyone who enters the hostel. But 3 days after that, they will return to their lazy mindset and just casually observe the comings and goings of strangers and residents.

I don't blame them, really - being on Red Alert all the time will exhaust them quickly. It's called being human, no matter how much the victims accuse them of being otherwise. But then, it's useless if the administrators turn a blind eye to the high crime rates. (Sigh) What to do, what to do....
