Vandalism is still occurring in the capital, where irresponsible
people who do not appreciate the facilities that have been
provided for free, are vandalising public amenities.
Vandalism will provide a
negative impression particularly towards tourists who are the
country for the first time. Irresponsible people should
eradicate this attitude of vandalism by doing other positive
things.
Vandalism may sometimes be
considered as not a serious matter by the relevant authorities
but it does reflect the image of the people in the country. Thus
with the assistance of the relevant authorities and the public
to identify and report the individuals who vandalise public
properties, vandalism can be minimised.
