Anyways, what I would like to highlight today was the
inefficiency of the Royal Malaysian Police Force (Police DiRaja Malaysia, PDRM). With all due respect, I’m
just telling the truth of what happened when my sis went reporting at the
police station after the incident. At that moment, her boyfriend was still able
to track the whereabouts of the snatch thieves (2 motorcyclists), as my sis always
switched on her iPhone’s “locations”. Immediately, they informed the police
officers, with a hope that the police is able to help recover the stolen stuff
and lock up the 2 snatch thieves.
Guess what were the replies of the police officers?
They asked my sis and her boyfriend to look for the thieves
themselves, and call the “Gerakan Khas” police force once they spotted the
thieves without alerting the thieves. A telephone number, should be the hotline
to the “Gerakan Khas” team, were given to them. My sis & her boyfriend were
stunted and stoned.
Sorry for my language but I would just like to say “WTF!”
How dare they ask civilians, whom are with no knowledge on
how to pursue criminals, no weapons for protection, to put themselves in such
dangerous front? The police officers are trained and well equipped to do such
things. Furthermore this time, they do have tips on the whereabouts of the
thieves. No more excuses. Yet, this kind of response was given. This is an international
huge joke!
In 1829 Sir
Richard Mayne wrote:
"The primary object of an efficient police is the prevention of crime: the next that of detection and punishment of offenders if crime is committed. To these ends all the efforts of police must be directed. The protection of life and property, the preservation of public tranquillity, and [at] the absence of crime, will alone prove whether those efforts have been successful and whether the objects for which the police were appointed have been attained."

The efficiency of the Malaysia’s royal police force is in need to
be questioned seriously. If they couldn’t protect the lives and properties of us
civilians, who are supposed to be responsible for that? Perhaps too many
corruptions in the country lead to the happening of such event? Seriously
disappointed.
According to a report by The Sun Daily on Oct, 2011, Deputy Prime
Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin announced that Malaysia is ranked 19th safest country in the world. I seriously doubt
this! I believe there are many more crimes go unreported because the people are
sick with the efficiency of our police force. People just don’t bother to
report anymore because they know there will be no outcome.
I felt really disappointed with our Malaysia's Royal Police Field force behaving such an attitude. How can we expect tourists to be safe when they are here for holidays? This is really suck! Unlesss somethings & actions are taken seriously to improve the situation especially on the street where everyone is suppose to move around freely, there is going to have lots of snatch thieves around. the only way to safe guard oneslef is to educate & really digest on safety wherever you are.
