Report vandalism

There has been an outbreak of vandalism in the "fish" area of Ettalong.

We have had a car with its windscreen smashed and one with graffiti down the side.

We had two very large and heavy flower pots stolen, and another smaller one hurled at the door of the front villa.

We have notified the police, but I understand that many people do not bother to do this as they think nothing will be done because the police are understaffed and overworked.

However, the police say that if they are not told how can they know the scale of the problem and maybe get more funds/manpower allocated?

They urge everyone who experiences vandalism to notify the police on 131 444.
