INDEX1980-1998



The Public Safety Index declined during the period from 78.4 points in 1980 to 72.1 points in 1998, mainly due to an increase in road accidents, while changes in the crime rate were constant except in 1985-1986 and 1997-1998, coinciding with the period of economic downturn.(______public safety)


The economic factor have shown ability to produce an effect for a crime index in a 1985-1986 and 1997 - 1998. Have a few reason why economic downturn give a impact for a crime index and make it worse. When economic downturn, inflation will attack a malaysian economic. It's give a bad impact for a Malaysia social life. People will lose their job because of company cannot running the business. All that make Quality Life of Malayisan people make it worse and worse. Because all of the factor above make the crime rate grow and a quality of life will turn down.


Malaysian as a development country have take many workers from outside like Indonesian, Bangladesh, Nepal and etc. Foreign workers that coming to illegaly to work in Malaysia will contribute a crime problem, for example:robbery, kidnap, snatch thief and etc.



Crimes per thousand population increased from 5.3 in 1980 to 7.2 in 1998, while the average crime rate for the 19-year period was only 4.7. For the period 1980-1989, the average crime rate was 5.1, as compared to 3.8 for the period 1990-1996, indicating an overall decline in crime rate during the period of strong economic growth. Crime rate however, rose to 5.6 and 7.2 in 1997 and 1998 respectively during the period of economic slowdown.(________public safety)
