BLOODY THIEVES - GENERATE ECONOMY TOO

 

An interesting piece from a Malaysian? 

A brilliant essay written by a Grade 8 student. 

No doubt research was done extensively.

*With the Blessings of Thieves!*

A school teacher assigned homework to the children about thieves — asking them to write an essay on the topic.

One clever student from 8th grade wrote the following essay.

Thieves are also an important part of our country’s economy.

They significantly contribute to employment generation and the nation’s development.

You might be surprised to read this — let me shed a little light on it.

Safes, locks, lockers, cupboards — all these are made because of thieves.

Many factories and workshops that manufacture these items provide employment thanks to this profession.

Even at home, the need to install window grills, latches, and stronger doors gives work to carpenters and laborers.

For the protection of homes, shops, schools, colleges, offices, and factories, it becomes necessary to hire guards and watchmen.

People get jobs in companies that make CCTV cameras, metal detectors, and security systems.

Because of thieves, police, courts, judges, lawyers, and other staff also get employment.

For the police — barricades, weapons, bullets, sticks, uniforms, vehicles, and motorcycles are all bought, boosting the economy.

Thanks to thieves, we have jails, jailers, and jail staff who are employed.

Also, when mobiles, laptops, cars, motorcycles, electrical appliances, purses, lipsticks, and other such items are stolen — people have to buy them again, which increases trade and boosts business.

Famous and notorious thieves often end up in politics, leading to even bigger thefts.

Much more can be said — the contribution of thieves to our country’s economy is indeed very significant !

The teacher awarded this research-filled essay a full 100% marks and included the student in the merit list !😀. "

I like the 2nd last para, the part when the student mentioned that the notorious and famous thieves often ended in politics. Indeed very true. We do have plenty of them already in the govt, some ended up as PM and DPM.
