There has been a slate of crimes in Johor recently, with the latest being two kidnappings in the space of just one week, Shin Min Daily News reported.
Singaporeans visiting Johor should be wary of these 10 crime spots.
From last year, the Malaysia police have set up 25 sentry points at these crime focal points. Through 24 hours surveillance, they hope to instill a sense of confidence in the public and stop criminal activities.
Johor police chief Mohd Mokhtar Mohd Shariff once said that only 0.02 percent of Singapore visitors are affected by crime. However, as a precaution, Singaporean visitors should continue to exercise caution when visiting Johor, especially when visiting these places.
Top 10 Crime Spots:
Taman Century: housing development where the popular Holiday Plaza is
Taman Pelangi: housing development with shops, restaurants and nightlife
Taman Tampoi: a suburb near downtown Johor Bahru
