Default CP Thief at Malaysia!!!!

It is sad to tell you all that there is CP thief at Malaysia... It happen to my friend on 30th April. His dog is barked at 3am, but he thought is nothing. And 2 pot CP is missing!!!! The pots taken were the nearest to his front gate. 1 pot CP is replaceable, but, the others is TC sarrasenias that brought from Singapore (there are few sp. inside the pot)!!!!!

So, for those grow CP outdoor... Please be caution!!!! Dont put yours CP reachable from outsider... Dont bring unknown person to yours house, even our intention is to share our hobby!!!

CP thief is happen at Singapore few week ago... And now....

Unfortunate, theft seems to be growing along with this hobby. 2 very large and respected growers in the US had very valuable nepenthes stolen from them. Keep a look out on ebay, one thief has already been found there.

I have lost some plants too. They're at my parents place out of town. Most of the time I do not notice them lost until I specifically want to look for that species when someone ask. Usually it's TS... haa, haaa... He'll be asking me, "eh, how's your N. etc. etc..." Then I'll be like... Hmmm... now that you mention it I've not see it in a while.

Then only I realise it's gone. I'll be frantically asking my parents about them and whether they gave that plant away, but they never give my plants away without asking me after the N. sumatrana insident.
