Since last being on BFM, the Safer Malaysia project has been taken under the Bar Council's wing. We speak to Richard Wee of Safer Malaysia, who speaks to us on both a personal and professional level about the issue of escalating crime in Malaysia, who is responsible for it, and what can be done about it.

Safer Malaysia is holding an open forum this Saturday 27th April at 4pm to tackle the problem of escalating crime. If you are interested in taking part, please visit http://safermalaysia.com/forum-towards-a-safer-malaysia-2/ and register your attendance online.
