PETALING JAYA: A group of veteran Malaysian journalists condemned the Israeli military’s bombardment of homes, offices and other infrastructure, including the building that housed the offices of foreign media such as The Associated Press and Al Jazeera.
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: Not being able to fulfill his pledge to bring fugitive businessman Low Taek Jho or Jho Low back to Malaysia remains one of Tan Sri Abdul Hamid Bador s biggest regrets.
The Inspector-General of Police said he had made the promise as the police were conducting an operation to bring Low back but the effort fell through. I even flew to the country (where he was hiding) to discuss with the authorities there in an effort to bring him back. Normally such a request will be reciprocrated by authorities of another country but it was not in this case.
SHAH ALAM: Tan Sri Abdul Hamid Bador is looking forward to retirement and focusing on his hobby - farming.
The Inspector-General of Police, who is expected to retire in May, said after almost two years as the country s top cop, he was ready to retire. I can t wait to do more farming once I retire, he said in an interview with Tan Sri Johan Jaafar during a Sinar Harian Facebook Live session on Wednesday (March 17).
Abdul Hamid reminded all police personnel and officers to carry out their duties with integrity. Use the authority given to help people, instead of victimising them.
