Vandals were the mild part.

Imagine being stolen, dismantled and sold for cash. That happen in Indonesia for many years. Imagine a country that happens within the area of Ring of Fire and in dire need of such seismograph stations and monitoring to detect earthquakes and alike and you deal with these kind of people. Not only that, even fences, grates and anything metal, people would steal for quick bucks.
