PDRM planning book on senior police officials' experience in special ops
KUALA LUMPUR: The Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM) are planning a book containing the experiences of former senior police officials carrying out special operations to act as reference for junior officers and personnel. Deputy Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Ayob Khan Mydin Pitchay said they have reached out for views and information from members of the Retired Senior Police Officers' Association (Respa) who have been involved in successful operations. 'In the Special Branch itself, we have produced a book on operations carried out, in the Criminal Investigation Department I feel many operations need to be recorded as reference to officers and personnel who have just gotten involved in such operations. 'This might be because there's too much information and experience among retired police officials, maybe there are similar operations and this book can be a guide so that new officers don't make the same mistakes,' he told reporters after officiating the 41st Respa annual general meeting here today, with Respa chairman Datuk Meor Chek Hussein Mahayuddin in attendance. He added that the effort would take some time as it required retired officers to share their experiences and information. 'Many senior officers who have retired have approached me personally, sometimes about sensitive legal issues, and I've used that a lot as a guide,' he said. In his speech, Ayob urged Respa members to update their personal details in the e-Pesara PDRM system, especially their latest addresses, health status and beneficiary's contact details so that information relating to benefits from the government could be channelled well. 'I pray that Respa continues to be successful in its noble efforts in safeguarding its members' interests and welfare,' he added. Respa also channelled donations worth RM51,712 to the beneficiaries of the Sungai Senam Camp Federal Reserve Unit (FRU) Unit 5 personnel who were involved in the May 13 crash in Teluk Intan. Ayob presented a cheque to FRU deputy commander ACP Mohd Fadhli Daud, who represented the beneficiaries.

Police to tap retired officers' experience for special ops guidebook
KUALA LUMPUR: Federal police are planning to produce a book which documents its special operations to serve as a guide for young officers and personnel. Deputy Inspector-General of Police, Tan Sri Ayob Khan Mydin Pitchay said the book, which would contain information of its special operations, could help junior officers avoid repeating past mistakes. "To realise this initiative, we will gather information and insights from members of the Retired Senior Police Officers Association (Respa), who had previously been involved in these special operations. "In the Special Branch (SB), we already have books documenting the operations conducted. "For departments like the Criminal Investigation Department (CID), I believe many operations should also be documented to serve as guidance for new officers and personnel. "This is because veteran officers hold a wealth of experience and knowledge. There may be similar operations in the future where the same mistakes could be repeated by new officers," he told reporters after attending the Respa AGM at the Police College today. He said the effort would take time as it requires gathering experiences and detailed accounts from veteran officers. "This initiative should also be undertaken by other departments such as the Internal Security and Public Order Department and the Narcotics Criminal Investigation Department (NCID). "Personally, many retired senior officers still send me messages from time to time regarding sensitive legal issues and others I often use their input as a guide," he said. Meanwhile, in his speech, Ayob urged Respa members to update their personal information in the PDRM e-Pensioner system, particularly their current address, health status, and emergency contact details. "This is to ensure smooth communication regarding benefits and rewards provided by the government. "I pray that Respa will continue to succeed in its noble mission of safeguarding the welfare and interests of its members. All the contributions and sacrifices made will always be appreciated," he said.
