Amazing lack of security in hotels

It occurs to me that by showing this video clip, it not only help hotel guests to prevent possible illegal entry into their rooms, but also helps those with criminal intent to learn how to gain entry. But hopefully, with more exposure, more people would take precautions and more would-be thieves will be deterred from the publicity. Hotel security management should also beware of people walking around with such a simple tool.



This reminds me of the simple tools used in several thefts of mobile phones in our house in PJ. This thief just needed to carry a 3-ft pvc pipe, a wooden stick of about the same length which fits into the pipe, a small piece of rubber cut from a slipper, and strong glue to be used at time of operation. The glue helps to stick the phone or wallet which can be fished out easily from an open window. So air-conditioning helps in a way to prevent such thefts.
