"Kita tambah kat Utara, kes berlaku di Selatan. Kita tambah kat Timur, kes berlaku di Selatan."

Yes...this was quoted from one of the many policemen we have in Malaysia. Thanks to our PDRM academy for training such an idiotic officer and thanks to JPA for even consider hiring such an irresponsible officer.

This was the answer my dad and I got when my dad asked if they would take any action on my case...perhaps increase the frequency of police patrol around the neighbourhood?

And he answered 'we increase in North, cases happens in South. We increase in East, cases happens in West'

I was not joking or trying to make up some case here. This was real and I have heard it myself. Those words were from an Inspector during the investigation session on the robbery case that happened on me recently...Yes I have have to admit that it was my wrong for not rebutting or filed any complain on this incident.

Firstly, after the robbery I was emotionally and mentally half paralyzed. I could not further question him on his remark. Secondly, I didn't believe and do not believe and not convinced with the performance and efficiency of these officers. They have always claimed to uphold their most dignity with the slogan 'Bersih, Cekap dan Amanah' but I doubt it. Thirdly, filling another complaint against that officer might get me into more trouble. 2 police report and 2 investigation sessions were enough for the day. Who would want to stay on in that damn cold place for minutes or hours longer?

Not to forget to mention about the so called investigation that took place. It was barely a Q&A session. I was seated right opposite that officer while looking at him writting at a super slow speed...but applause for the tidynesss in his handwriting...see...the investigation trend that we have here...oups or perhaps his way, 'investigation = Q&A'....unlike what we have seen in those CSI...so if I was the robber, I will surely continue looking at the way the officer carried out their investigation was going no where, no conclusion or solution...

So from this experience I could conclude on how the officer carried out his duty...

Investigation = Q & A

Hence

Policemen = Documenter a.k.a Clerk

Then days after my case, there was an accident which happened right infront of my house. It happened at close to 11pm involving a car with 1 driver in it and a motorcyclist on a motorcycle. The motorcyclist was badly injured, so my family called the police station and for an ambulance.

The scene was crowded with passerbys aka 'kay poh ci' and the traffic was initially in the state of chaos. But thanks to a group of people from the efficient and well networked tow and mechanic shops, the traffic was under control. They arrived at the scene within minutes...and they were using walkie-talkie just like the PDRM but I guessed theirs would be older and less expensive models.

Could you guess how long it took for the 'clerks' to arrive at the scene? They arrived 40 minutes later with their loud siren on...announcing their late arrival to the public...the police station was at most 15 minutes away counting in the traffic lights...but wonder who actually believe police car with siren on would wait for traffic light?

Can we still trust policemen? I mean as in relying on them to maintain our national safety and protect lives. With the increasing criminal rates and more cases reported on the media daily, are we safe now?

Looking at these 2 cases, I have lost my very least confidence on PDRM...and counting in bribery practise, I dispice them...dispice the career...dispice the force...
