POLICE FORCE VS CITIZEN'S THOUGHTS

.
Be it shine or rain, in their shining black sunglasses & Boots, small cap, white gloves, they drench in sweat and dirt while smiling and waving at you in the streets. Many occasions their boots is flooded with rain water, and drench with polluted city rain. The sun and rain never show mercy upon these people, and most of them suffered plenty of sun burn enough for their skin to immune to it. Some of them have pot bellies, not because they’re lazy but they work so hard they could hardly have time to workout or exercise to keep fit.

Furthermore, during PUASA MONTH they sacrifice their lunch time and work for sake of others with an empty stomach.When people are celebrating their public holidays, they maintain the conditions of the roads and patrol around the city to keep public peace. For some their pay is lower than a sale promoter yet they work hard for the sake of others. There’re times when they have to leave their families to replace the insufficient man power in other states. No matter what is the outcomes whether they support DAP or BN, they have to maintain neutral.

They constantly found themselves ‘yamcha’ with death god unwillingly and carry a high risk of danger. Most of the time they sweat enough to at par with how much they drink.When we see them chasing after Mat Rempits, we are at ease and relax. When we see them chasing snatch thieves, we’re glad and happy. When we have them by our side, we felt safe and secured (Although, for some they may disagree for reasons I think best you keep to yourself =P).

When we shout for help, they rush to our aid immediately even when they’re in the toilet doing their business or just applied the soap or shampoo in the bath tub. Many times they risk their life by rushing into dashing vehicles to stop them with their red flags to maintain a proper traffic rules. Sometimes they have to go for diet so they can hide behind the poles to catch traffic offenders. Sometimes, they found themselves stuck in a small “pondok” at the side of the highway under the blazing sun light equip with nothing but a small hand fan and a camera.

However, more than often we take them for granted. Many occasions when we stuck in traffic jam, we push all the blame to them despite their effort in controlling the traffic. When they just trying to rest after a long hard work in the kopitiam, we say them ‘curi tulang’. When they stuck in their station dealing with endless paper work and complain, we say they’re lazy to make their round. For some they have a sour day and may suffered a bad mood (They’re human after all) but when we confront them in the station at the counter, we accuse them of being impolite and rude with added bonus of sue case or complain filing.



Little do we know, for some of us we come to look down on them. Many view them as ‘Tak Boleh Harap’ and some were even disgusted to look at them. When they are summoned to wear the badge “Saya Anti Rasuah” we say ‘What the use? Look nice nia, but when we give angpow they still take.’ Furthermore, some rather turn to their friends or other alternatives when they need help rather than them who actually able to help us with not more than RM10.



When we wear our branded John Master, Pierre Cardin, and Crocodile shirts/pants/shoes to work, they only wear 1 brand which made in Malaysia. All come in either Dark Blue or Black or White or Yellow, with all same style. Most of them have to wear the same stuffs 7 days a week while we change our clothes everyday.While we drive in our Mercedes, BMW, and even Kancil. They challenge the sun and rain with their Ex5 Honda 100cc Motorbike. We grumble of carrying our laptop and books to campus due to their weight but we can benefits from them, but they have to carry batons, guns, & etc, that they themselves might never even have a chance to use it in their lifetime.

Last Monday when I ride through one of the major highway, I found 5 Whites and 2 Dark Blues doing their usual roadblock under the merciless blazing steaming sun. After safely pass through them, I ride to the nearest petrol station to purchase 7 Mineral Water and rode back to them and distribute to them. I hope it can keep them from dehydrated, so now that I think of it… most of us take them for granted. Those who drives, perhaps you might want to prepare some mineral waters in your cars. Is the least we can do to show that we care, as a True Malaysian.

So who win this match?
You decide~!
