PERMATANG PAUH: Modern policing is expected to assist community-based policing in efforts to reduce crime at a faster rate.
Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi said modern policing involves the latest equipment and assets, which will be given to police at all levels, especially at crime hotspots.
"Modern policing is not only about putting on smart attire. It means the police must be equipped with modern assets at all levels.
“We are confident that the cooperation with the people can further strengthen modern policing and reduce crime at a faster rate,” he said.
Zahid was speaking at a Malaysian Crime Prevention Foundation (MCPF)’s town hall engagement session at Politeknik Seberang Perai here, today.
