Safer streets in Mont’Kiara

Thought you might interested in as many cases of theft were reported at Mont Kiara's condo. But really not sure, this program actually gonna to be implemented in our area as I know Sunrise has not vested interest in this area.

RESIDENTS of Mont’Kiara and Dutamas can look forward to a safer living environment with the launch of the Sunrise Community Watch.




Recognising the importance of a safe and secured environment, Sunrise Bhd, a wholly owned subsidiary of UEM Land Holdings Bhd, spearheaded the community-based campaign in partnership with the police.

“With this campaign, we hope to minimise crime besides promoting closer community ties with the law enforcers,” said UEM Land Holdings Bhd CEO Datuk Wan Abdullah Wan Ibrahim.

The campaign includes joint patrols by the police as well as the auxiliary force in addition to crime prevention talks, dialogues and exhibitions by the police.

“Sunrise is currently incorporating modern technologies and we are running trials on the Intelligent Video Analytics (IVA) system that can detect and send alerts instantaneously in response to a crime,” Wan Abdullah added.

The neighbourhood has adopted innovative solutions to enhance security; there are foot patrol beats, LED screens to display safety tips and emergency numbers and regular crime prevention awareness activities at the Community Centre. Sunrise had been implementing several security measures since 2005.

As of last year, Sunrise Bhd had set up an Auxiliary Police Unit with 60 trained personnel patrolling the Mont’Kiara and Dutamas vicinity as well as monitoring CCTV surveillance of public roads for suspicious criminal activities.

“We have a total of 45 cameras with the installation of seven additional units at the end of Jalan Kiara to provide coverage for our latest development,” he said.

Kuala Lumpur chief police officer DCP Datuk Mohmad Salleh said this initiative could only be successful with the cooperation and assistance of people who frequented the area. “Neighbourhood watch schemes can help reduce crime by keeping an eye on suspicious behaviour within the neighbourhood. A partnership with the police is the best weapon to fight against crime,” he said.

The launch also featured several booths from the Narcotics Crime Investigation Department, Commercial Crime Investigation Department, Rakan Cop and traffic police displaying illegal drugs, fake bank notes, photos of road accidents as well as informative brochures on the departments.
