Message From The Director

As the 21st century progresses, we come to realise that the police can do their job of controlling crime far more effectively if they can rely on community participation.

Preventing crime is no longer a task just for our hardworking police, but a responsibility, which lands at every doorstep - yours and mine. It is in our own interests. We must not forget that more than 90 per cent of crime is against property.

The success of schemes such as the Neighbourhood Watch shows that a community working together can generate security and confidence, which deters criminals.

The purpose of this web site is to remind you of some practical ways you  can prevent crime by protecting

• Yourself
• Your family
• Your home
• Your possession
• Your community

The advice offered here should improve your personal and household safety and, just as importantly, your peace of mind. We also encourage you to accept the challenge to make your community safer. By participating in crime prevention you will make Sarawak a better and safer place to live in.
