low tide for police

No part time business for police officers. Now the deputy IGP is talking. Why he took so long to say it? In fact he should nip in the bud a long time ago. The man on the streets knew about police officers running part time businesses. Last year I heard a police officer had amassed a tune of over $40 millions which he didnt declare although the General Government Orders required all government servants to do so periodically including the Cabinet Ministers. I dont know what happen to the police officer. The police should have a check and balance on themselves which the IGP claimed he had. Then why exist part time businesses by the police officers? I once read about a female police officer in UK who was moonlighting I think as a striptease in one of the night clubs in London. When she was expose, I think she face disciplinary action for not getting clearance from her superior. When one is in uniform services, one shouldn't go for part time business which can jeopardise one's reputation and integrity. So the deputy IGP was correct to get his officers to toe the line which is better than never. Right now the police officers should improve their public image which had lately been tarnished by some over-zealous officers in carrying out their duties. The last incident was the 60 years old woman who was ruffled up in lock up. Why ask sarcastic questions? Why treat a senior citizen badly? The police force should know how to recruit personnel in their workforce - those who are willing to sacrifice for the county and people and not for personal gratification just because of the badges and uniforms

Good day Malaysia.............talk less more action to ease the public misconception
