JASIN, Oct 4 – The Home Ministry (KDN) received good feedback from the Royal Malaysian Police (PDRM) regarding the pilot project of using body cameras on a number of officers and members of the security force.
Its minister Datuk Seri Saifuddin Nasution Ismail said he had interacted with several traffic police officers involved in the pilot project and the feedback received was positive.
“I had the opportunity to interact with the (traffic) police officers on duty… their feedback this time came out with more confidence in carrying out their duties… they did not see the aspect (use of body cameras) of their duties being supervised.
“They are more confident this time because it will increase the efficiency of carrying out their duties, increase the element of authority of the police force, that will avoid the potential of the community sometimes seeing the police assignment being given a (negative) image involving the aspect of integrity,” he said.
