Hey guys out there! Wait. Don’t ever press x at above up there. Topic for today is Causes of Vandalism. As you all know, we already explained at you what the meaning of Vandalism.
        Vandalism is caused by people who think it is funny damage people’s property. Normally caused by peer pressure when told to vandalise they feel they can't say NO!Vandalism can also be committed against minority groups as an expression of racism or religious hatred. It has been found in studies of teenage behaviour that those who commit seemingly pointless vandalism are often shallow individuals who aspire to little other than material possessions, money and glamour, and feel jealous of those who have what they don't. It can be the result of bad parenting, but I suppose some are just born that way. Graffiti vandalism is a little different, in that they consider themselves "artists" who strive to be respected by other graffiti "artists". Cutting through fences, slipping past security to claim walls to tag is a big part of the thrill.

Then, it caused by that guy. Oh wait! Not him. But someone who is reading this post! Loll. It’s true right? Don’t tell me that you never vandalise something. It’s never being sure. Accidentally without you notice you wrote something on your table in the class. Better you check after this and please erase back. Please cooperate with us to stop the Vandalism problems among Malaysians. Do you realise  that you just Vandalise when you are bored, nothing to do, don’t have test pad to calculate the mathematics problems. So you should full your time with funny things.

Oh man! I have to go now. I’ll be right back soon. Don’t forget to follow liten writers J we’ll talk more about this.

Best regards;

title : ways to overcome vandalism

VANDALISM
WAYS TO OVERCOME VANDALISM!!


GOVERNMENT


One day, my parents brought me to the library nearby. I enjoyed the scenery so much but there is something that spoils the view. There’s a wall full of graffiti. I do not know why people like to doodle their problems on the public phones, garbage bins, lifts, parking meters, bus shelters, public signboards and public toilets. There are many tourists in Malaysia. So what can we do as a Malaysian to maintain the good image of Malaysia? We must cooperate to overcome this problem.

The government should enforce the law so that the public especially the teenagers will be more responsible to take care of the public facilities. The authority could help the government by regularly patrolling a certain areas. Those who have vandalised the public facilities should be punished. These are the actions that can be taken by the government.

I think this is all from me this time. If there is something new, I will post it immediately.

title : Effects of Vandalism in Schools
Okay people. Time to own up. We’ve all done it at least once. And we’re all guilty.

I don’t really understand it myself, but whenever my pencil touches the surface of the table and starts doodling or writing nonsense, there’s a sense of calm and peace. And maybe you feel the same. But have we ever really thought about what it does?

Vandalism effects a lot of people, as harmless as it may seem.  It affects the society, wildlife and heck, even the economy. But that’s another story for another time, as today I’m just going to touch the effects of vandalism in schools.

Well, for one, it affects the school’s image. Honestly, nobody wants those scribbles covering the whole surface of the table until there is no table really left to see. It hurts the eyes of the students, so what more the visitors? What do you think their first impression of the school will be when they enter the classroom to the sight of ghastly desks and chairs? Not pleasant thoughts, that’s for sure. We all want to be proud of our school. We all want to be able to say that the facilities are in top condition. Well, vandalizing does nothing but the opposite.

Another thing is vandalism causes everyone’s wallets to bleed. When we destroy the school’s facilities, it the management’s job to find replacements, which could bring up quite a bill. And as the students, it’s our job to bring out the cash to pay the bill. Where do you think all the money from our yearly fees go? And let’s not forget all those times we complain about the school’s facilities not being good enough. Did you know?  Schools pay millions of dollars each year to clean up graffiti, repair buildings, and replace vandalized equipment. That money could be used to buy better sports equipment or new computers.

Other than that, vandalism distracts the students in class. I don’t know about you guys. But there are times in which I stop paying attention to my teacher to read the vandalism on tables. I’m sure you guys do it too sometimes.  This is bad. Really bad. And when exam season comes around, you’re going to regret not listening to the teacher. But hey, how can we help it? Sometimes the colourful nonsensical illustrations are so much more inviting than boring monochrome letters.

So now we know how vandalism affects schools and its students. Why can’t we channel our creativity in more nondestructive ways? Why waste our talent away on a piece of wood? Why damage school property? We’re humans and we’re full of imperfections. And it’s only human nature to flaw pretty things. Let’s try to change ourselves and practice more self-control. 

From this day onwards, no more mathematical workings on the table, no more engraving names, no more ‘spilled’ permanent ink and no more vandalism

title : Introduction to Vandalism


Hello everyone. So here we come back with the introduction to Vandalism. What do you guys know basically about Vandalism? We just know that it is a bad action.
But now let us define you with the real meaning of Vandalism. Vandalism is  the behaviour attributed originally to the Vandals, by the Romans, in respect of culture: ruthless destruction or spoiling of anything beautiful or venerable. The term also includes criminal damage such as graffiti and defacement directed towards any property without permission of the owner.

Vandals are actually the ancient Germanic people. The term Vandalisme was coined in 1794 by Henri Grégoire, bishop of Blois, to describe the destruction of artwork following the French Revolution. The term was quickly adopted across Europe. 
Here are the examples of Vandalism.
Some examples of vandalisms include dumping trash anywhere, smashing lights, removing signs, breaking windows,cutting down trees without permission, spraying paint anywhere and ransacking a place. Pertaining to vandalism of private property, some countries have severe punishments like in Singapore, a person who will be caught is liable to imprisonment for three years and in UK, vandalism is treated as a environmental crime and may be dealt by ABSO (Anti-Social Behavior Order)15 but for other countries, like in the Philippines, it seems like the authorities are not aware of the crime.
That's all for now, we are going to give you more informations on Vandalism. Meet you guys soon.  Keep on visiting our blog for current updates.
