Attention, international students in Australia! ⚠️ Here are some life-saving tips for you. 💡

Dear friends who are studying in Australia, no matter when or where, prioritize your personal safety and give your family peace of mind! 🙏🙏🙏 The following tips may not be comprehensive, so feel free to add more! 🕵️🕵️ 1. Be cautious of unfamiliar phone calls, regardless of who they claim to be (even if they pretend to be from the embassy or "police"). They could be scams, so be careful. ⚠️ 2. When renting a place, choose a community with good security. Theft is common abroad, so avoid keeping too much cash or valuable items at home. Consider installing surveillance cameras and alarm systems. 3. Minimize going out at night, and if you do, avoid going alone. It's best to travel with a companion, whether in the CBD or remote areas, as there may be many homeless people and individuals with suspicious intentions. 4. Traffic safety is crucial. Remember that Australia follows left-hand driving. At pedestrian crossings, press the button and wait for the traffic lights. Some areas have automatic sensors, so no button is required. 5. Don't be afraid of encountering missionaries, but try to avoid them. Otherwise, they might try to take you to a small church and influence your thoughts, wasting your afternoon. 6. When going out for gatherings or to bars, don't accept drinks or cigarettes from strangers or let them make you smell something. Don't drink from a beverage that has been out of your sight. Keep your drink close to you at all times! ‼️ 7. Avoid showing cash and wallets when outside, as you may encounter strangers who ask you to treat them or potential thieves who specifically target Asians! ⚠️ 8. Have an emergency contact person while abroad and don't join in just for the sake of it. 9. Memorize the emergency hotline number for your area. 🚨 10. Be cautious when making friends. Interact more with positive and proactive friends, participate in healthy group activities, and stay in touch with your parents to reassure them. 👪 11. Protect your personal information and avoid revealing it to others casually. 12. Before getting into a taxi, always check the license plate number. 👀 13. When dealing with contracts or agreements, carefully read the terms multiple times to avoid being deceived. 🙏 14. Install a video doorbell at your doorstep. If someone lingers or suspicious activities occur, you can receive alerts on your phone. 15. For women living alone, you can create an illusion of having male presence at home by placing items such as men's shoes, cologne, or camouflage clothing.
