A better police force

The prime minister has recently emphasised on the accountability of the police, while the president advised the force to be friendly to common people. These suggestions were very timely.

As the Police Week is being observed, we honour brave police officers whose contribution to the society should be remembered. At the same time, we are also concerned about officers getting involved in illicit activities.

We hope the Police Week will lighten up the force's inner conscience and encourage it to be dutiful, professional and respectable.
