Conclusion: Holistic Approach in Crime Control

The Police will continue to adopt a holistic view to keep crime under control. Apart from rigorous enforcement, community engagement remains an important component in the overall strategy to combat crime.

Police will also continue to enhance our investigative and law enforcement capabilities in our fight against crime. In addition to leveraging on technology and forensic evidence in crime solving, Police also works closely with other agencies to holistically tackle crime. This close collaboration contributed to the successful dragnet operation conducted in Geylang in January 2010, where 170 persons were arrested for various criminal offences. Director of the Criminal Investigation Department, Senior Assistant Commissioner Ng Boon Gay added, “We strive to constantly enhance our enforcement and investigative capabilities to suit the needs of the times. For example, the recently launched Casino Crime Investigation Branch (CCIB) will work closely with other existing specialist investigation units and the relevant police Land Divisions towards a crime free gaming environment when the casinos open their doors."

For maximum public outreach, P olice will continue to explore new avenues such as leveraging on new media channels like online forums, the SPF Facebook, YouTube, and Razor TV ‘i-witness’ program .

Director of Public Affairs, Assistant Commissioner Ng Guat Ting said, “ Singapore remains a safe place to live and work in but we need the community to continue to remain vigilant and to work with the Police to ensure the continued safety and security of Singapore .”
