ABOUT TODAYS CRIME WORLD
Crime is a big problem in the world many believe
that nothing can be done to prevent it. 
The contemporary world has witnessed an increase
in crime rates earlier. This is a prevailing and
worrying aspect that made many to believe it's
impossible to prevent it.
Today's society characterized by the 'money could
buy anything' attitude has washed away the
ethical or moral value system. Values, which have
gradually diluted through the generations, are
now irrelevant. While old values have become
obsolete, new values have not even been shaped.
What then is the solution? The solution lies in
changing the fabric of the society and the
government.
Everyone need to discover all over again values
like kindness, respect for another and tolerance.
These may repetitive, even mundane in today's
context. But these are the only ingredients of
peace and survival.
