Kuala Lumpur, 26th September 2021 - Some spots in the city that were previously quiet are now packed with people after restrictions were relaxed for sports and recreational activities.
Recent observations by police found that places like Tugu Negara and Padang Merbok which did not see large crowds for some time were now abuzz with activity.
The Dang Wangi police have decided to deploy drones as a holistic approach to monitor standard operating procedure compliance, especially during the weekend.
Dang Wangi Officer Chief of Police District, ACP Tuan Noor Dellhan Yahaya said, they did a trial run with one drone last week and realised the potential benefits it could bring to their compliance teams.
“On weekdays we have 10 teams conducting their checks day and night but on weekends, we have increased our efforts with 10 teams during the day and 19 teams on duty in the evening and night.
“Having the drones in the air means we have a bird’s eye view of certain areas, which makes it easier to deploy our personnel and monitor crowds,” he said when met at Dataran Merdeka as members of the force deployed three drones yesterday.
