Be careful ! Take care yourself..

I read this shocking news from the star online about a woman who was murdered at one of budget hotel here in Kuala Lumpur. The motive is still unknown. Police rule out the motive as robbery as all his personal belongings are still intact.

A hotel staff member who rushed to the third-floor room when receive call from the victim and found the guest sprawled on a blood-soaked bed, with slash wounds on her chest and neck.

She was found stabbed three times on her chest and slashed once on her neck. The alleged intruder, believed to be a Myanmar national, then escaped.

I urge all our guests to take a good care of yourself and belongings. It is unfortunate that this has happened. I'm sure the police has already start working on this case at this very moment..
