KP Police Launches Chinese Language Training for Officers

The Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa Police in Pakistan has initiated a Chinese language training program for its officers, aiming to enhance communication and security coordination with Chinese engineers and foreign project staff. The inaugural cohort of 20 Special Security Unit personnel has successfully completed the course and is now deployed at various Chinese and foreign-funded projects in the province, such as the Suki Kinari Hydropower Project, Peshawar Airport, Project Peshawar, and RWS Khyber, among others.

This initiative comes in response to previous communication challenges due to language barriers between security personnel and Chinese engineers. Deputy Inspector General of the Special Security Unit, Syed Ashfaq Anwar, highlighted this as the first instance of formal Chinese language training for SSU personnel in the province, emphasizing that the program will further improve coordination at project sites.

The department also plans to incorporate training in other foreign languages in the future as part of its broader strategy to improve interactions with foreign nationals alongside technological advancements and professional training.
