Police Misconduct and the Mainstream Media’s Response to it: Malaysia and India

By Helen Ang
Bernama, our national news agency reported that 589 people were arrested in connection with the anti-ISA street demonstration.
I am truly impressed by the efficiency of our police. They nabbed 11.78% of the ‘criminals’ who broke the law attending an ‘illegal assembly’.
If there are 5,000 cases of snatch thefts reported a year, and police show the same level of efficiency, then they would have solved 12 percent of the cases. And apprehended 589 snatch thieves, and hopefully recovered and returned 589 handbags to grateful women of Malaysia.
