When going out, take good care of your personal belongings including your wallet and credentials (i.e. passport, and student ID, etc.), especially inside crowded places like shops and buses. In case something is lost or stolen, report the loss to the local police station.
Lock the door of the dorm room when you are out to prevent possible loss of property.
Pay attention to the safe use of electric appliances, do not connect electric wires without permission and do not use high-power electric appliances, turn off power when leaving the room to prevent fire.
Ask the driver for a receipt and keep it when taking a taxi in case you need to reclaim something left in the taxi, ask also the shop assistant for a receipt and keep it when purchasing a high-price article from a store, so that you may change or return the article when you find its quality is not up to standard.
In case of emergency, call 110 for police; call 120 for medical rescue.
Do not stay up too late as it may interfere with the study the next day. |
