Under the leadership of the 15th Inspector-General of Police (IGP), Dato' Sri Hj. Mohd Khalid Hj. Ismail, the Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM) is embarking on a transformative journey. The focus is clear: to modernize the force through advanced technology while maintaining the highest standards of integrity.

1. Organizational Modernization & Strengthening PDRM is prioritizing the refinement of work procedures and systems through the adoption of information technology and modern management methods. The procurement of high-tech equipment and computerized systems is set to streamline operations nationwide.

2. Enhancing the Force’s Image There is a renewed emphasis on providing professional, efficient, and friendly service. By fostering a "rakyat-centric" approach, PDRM aims to bolster public confidence and strengthen its reputation as a world-class law enforcement agency.

3. Human Capital Excellence To produce a committed and ethical workforce, the strategic plan includes:

  • Advanced Training: Continuous basic and specialized development schemes.

  • Career Advancement: Implementation of schemes to attract and retain high-caliber, highly-educated personnel.

  • Welfare: Prioritizing health, self-worth, and family well-being to ensure a balanced and motivated force.

4. Strengthening Strategic Networking Collaboration is key. PDRM is expanding its reach through Community Policing and partnerships with various government and non-governmental agencies. Internationally, PDRM remains active in regional policing seminars and bilateral cooperation to tackle global threats.

The 15th IGP’s Core Focus: Artificial Intelligence (AI) A primary pillar of Dato' Sri Hj. Mohd Khalid’s vision is the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI). By leveraging cutting-edge tech, PDRM aims to enhance its capabilities in combating increasingly sophisticated transborder crimes.
