SHAH ALAM: The Emergency is needed to curb the spread of Covid-19 and not for any other purpose, says Tan Sri Abdul Hamid Bador.
The Inspector-General of Police said the police, together with the Armed Forces and the Health Ministry, agreed over the need for the Emergency. There was a spike in Covid-19 cases during the recovery movement control order (MCO) last year after interstate travel was allowed. We told the government that there were repeat SOP violators and fake news was being spread, thus we needed more power (for enforcement). There is no intention of apple-polishing politicians as we are sincere and express our concerns based on facts, he said in an interview with Tan Sri Johan Jaafar on Sinar Harian s Facebook live show on Wednesday (March 17).
SHAH ALAM: Police personnel and officers with high integrity will be able to withstand any challenges in the course of their duties, says Tan Sri Abdul Hamid Bador.
The Inspector-General of Police said more officers and personnel are becoming more aware of the need to reject certain negative cultures in the police force. Senior officers such as Comm Datuk Ayob Khan Mydin Pitchay are a good example. I knew him for a long time since he was in Special Branch. He is firm, brave and he has high integrity. I expect such officers and personnel will be able to face and overcome any challenge, he said in an interview with Tan Sri Johan Jaafar during a Sinar Harian s Facebook live show on Wednesday (March 17).
Approximately 95% of police officers and personnel across the country are ready to receive the Covid-19 vaccine shots, according to Inspector-General of Police (IGP) Tan Sri Abdul Hamid Bador. He said only 3% of them will not be able to do so due to health reasons.
KUALA LUMPUR: All state police chiefs have been instructed to ensure that their personnel perform duties responsibly at roadblocks, says Tan Sri Abdul Hamid Bador.
