民政党峇都区部于上周日（1月13日）在冼都新镇菜市场，连同当地的居民协会安排了一场居民和警方的对话会，以便了解目前冼都新镇居民所面对的治安问题。民政党峇都区部也在对话会进行的前几天，特地走访冼都新镇菜市场一带，促请商家们踊跃出席这场对话会。
参与活动的峇都区民政党服务中心协调员刘华才博士指出，举办这场对话会的目的是基于民政党峇都区部长期收到该区居民的投诉，指当地的罪案屡增、治安问题亮起红灯。对话会获得当地商家和居民们的踊跃参与，当中他们就向警方反映了多项当地治安问题，包括24小时便利店遭抢劫、卖水机遭破坏偷取硬币、轻快铁站掠夺案频传、学生旷课和非法售卖香烟、醉酒闹事等等问题。
"通过这场对话会，我们集合了居民的投诉和意见，而警方也针对每一项问题做出了解释和解决方案。当中警方就表示居民提出的多宗罪案都已经破案，也奉劝24小时便利店提高警惕，做好防备措施。至于学生旷课和非法售卖香烟，警方只能在校方、家教协会代表和吉隆坡市政局官员的陪同下，才能逮捕有关涉嫌犯罪的学生。而那些醉酒人士也须是在闹事而影响他人的情况下，警方才能对他们采取逮捕行动。"刘华才说。
"其实，我们发现很多时候警方都不太了解人民真正的需要，而人民也不晓得警方的各种权限。通过这样的对话会，才能真正让人民与警方直接进行接触与沟通，针对每一项人民面对的问题对症下药，以达到更显著的效果。当警方问起居民们是否知道冼都警局的电话时，大部分的居民都不晓得。对此，警方劝请当地居民记下冼都警局的直接联络号码是03-62590093，或在面对任何紧急时发短讯给警察之友Rakan Cop热线32728，以让警方可以及时采取行动。"刘华才补充。
除此之外，国阵政府也将在近期在冼都斯里霹雳区建立新的警亭，加强当地的巡逻，维护治安。另外，政府也将在冼都一带建立一所城市转型中心，综合多个官方部门，以方便冼都的居民处理官方的手续。这一切都是国阵政府为峇都区发展所做的努力，民政党也期盼来届大选能获得峇都区人民的委托，持续服务峇都国会选区的居民，解决他们的生活起居问题，并提高他们的生活素质。
Batu Gerakan arranges dialogue between residents and police
To resolve the security issues in Bandar Baru Sentul
Press statement by Batu Gerakan Service Centre Coordinator
Dr. Dominic Lau Hoe Chai
14 January 2013
Last Sunday (13 January), Gerakan Batu Division visited the Bandar Baru Sentul market and together with the local residents they held a dialogue between the residents and police in order to find out the security issues that the residents in Bandar Baru Sentul are facing. A few days before the dialogue took place, Gerakan Batu Division also specially went for a visit to the nearby area in Bandar Baru Sentul market and urged the business owners to attend the dialogue actively.
Batu Gerakan Service Centre Coordinator Dr. Dominic Lau Hoe Chai pointed out that the objective to hold the dialogue is because Gerakan Batu Division has been constantly receiving complaints from the residents living in the area saying that local crime has increased and the security is alarming. The dialogue was well received by the local business owners and residents, they have reflected many security issues in the local area to the police during the dialogue, including 24-hour convenience store was robbed, drinking water dispenser was vandalised in order to steal the coins, snatch theft in LRT station was commonly heard, truancy and illegal selling of cigarettes, drunken brawl and many more problems.
"Through this dialogue, we have gathered the complaints and opinions of the residents, while the police have offered explanations and solutions for each question. During the dialogue, the police have clarified that most of the cases have been successfully solved and they also advised the 24-hour convenience store to stay alert and prepare for the safety precautions. As for the truancy among the students and illegal sales of cigarettes, the police can only arrest the students involved with the companion of school and PIBG representatives as well as DBKL officers. As for the drunken people, the police can only take action under the situation where they are causing trouble to other people," said Dr. Dominic Lau.
"In fact, we found that most of the time the police do not understand what the people really need, while the people also have no idea about the purview of the police. Only by organising such a dialogue, the people and the police can directly interact and communicate with each other to solve each problem and achieve significant results. When the police asked whether the residents know about the phone number of the Sentul police station, most of them did not have a clue about it. As a response, the police advised the local residents to jot down the direct contact number of the Sentul police station which is 03-62590093, or SMS to Rakan Cop hotline 32728 in any exigency so that the police can take immediate action," added Dr. Dominic Lau.
Apart from this, Barisan Nasional government will also establish a new police kiosk in Sentul's Sri Perak area in the near future, to step up the local patrol and maintain law and order. Besides, the government will also build an Urban Transform Centre (UTC) that integrates a few government departments in order to facilitate the Sentul residents in dealing with official procedures. All of these are the efforts made by the Barisan Nasional government on the development of Batu area, Gerakan hopes that the party will be entrusted by the people in the upcoming general election, continue to serve the residents of Batu parliamentary constituency, solve their livelihood problems and improve their quality of life.
