Petaling Jaya, 11th June 2020 - Police work is never done, and neither is providing healthcare. Day and night, whether at the frontline or the backroom, the pressure is on policemen to keep us safe, and on doctors and nurses to save lives.

For them, even with the significant relaxation in restrictions under the recently enforced recovery movement control order (RMCO), there is little or no respite.

There is little chance of spending more time with the family, much less taking that long-awaited holiday. But these heroes of the Covid-19 war will take their responsibilities in their stride.

"This is the life of a policeman, with or without the Covid-19 pandemic and the MCO," Petaling Jaya police chief ACP Tuan Nik Ezanee Mohd Faisal told The Sun yesterday.

He pointed out that with the relaxation of the rules, criminal activities are bound to increase.

"So while we continue to monitor everyone to ensure that the compliance level remains high, we also have to continue with our crime-busting duties."

"We must ensure that criminals know we are on top of our game," he said, adding that his district would be launching several initiatives soon in anticipation of a spike in crime.

ACP Tuan Nik Ezanee said being away from his family, during or after the MCO, is part of his job and sacrifice as a police officer, and he believes this sentiment is shared by his comrades-in-arms.

The 42-year-old father of one added that they are duty-bound to live up to the "guardian angel" moniker given by the public.

ACP Tuan Nik Ezanee said working long hours has become part and parcel of life for him and his colleagues. As a result, the needs of their own families have been relegated to second place. "The priority should also be to serve the people," he added.
