Kuala Lumpur - Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Mohd Khalid Ismail has warned that a decline in respect for senior officers could weaken the police force and undermine its reputation among other government agencies. Khalid emphasized the importance of maintaining discipline and respecting senior officers during his monthly gathering at Bukit Aman.
He stressed that being reprimanded should not be seen as a weakness, but rather an opportunity for improvement, and that criticism should be constructive in order to build character and competency. Khalid urged personnel to respect one another, accept feedback, and understand that they are not always right, fostering cooperation and solidarity within the force.
The police will celebrate Integrity Day on November 11, recognizing 35 officers who rejected bribes as role models.
