Shop owner's note to thieves: Don't waste your time
BY PATRICK LEE, NG SI HOOI, AND A. RAMAN
A COFFEESHOP operator in Miri, Sarawak, has been leaving a note to would-be burglars at the door of his shop.
He has asked the thieves not to break in as he takes all his goods home with him when he closes shop at night, China Press reported.
The note, written in English, read: “Please, do not break into this shop. Nothing valuable inside. Cigarette, cash etc taken” had caught the attention of passers-by.
The operator said he decided to put up the note after his shop was burgled several times.
The note has been effective so far.
> The newspaper also reported that all the organs of a lorry driver who died after a car accident will be donated to people in need of them.
In showing their endless love, the family of Wong Yih Min, 47, from Kota Permai in Butterworth decided to allow his organs to be harvested so other patients could have a new life.
Doctors harvested Wong’s corneas and eight bone joints on Dec 23. Wong was severely injured in the accident on Nov 10.
He left behind his wife.
Wong’s brother Yih Jong said the family, including their mother, supported the decision.
“My brother was a very helpful person when he was alive, so we decided to donate his organs.”
Wong’s mother and three other siblings have also pledged to donate their organs.
