11 NOV 1997 LEAD Agong-Police KING CONFIDENT OF CONTINUED EXCELLENT POLICE SERVICE KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 11 (Bernama) -- The Yang di-Pertuan Agong Tuanku Jaafar today expressed confidence of continued excellent service by the police force despite the added workload that comes with national progress. Policing was no longer confined to fighting crimes but now required the force to also deal with social ills, smuggling and influx of illegal immigrants, among others, he said. His majesty said the police leadership was constantly looking for ways to improve the performance of officers and men of the force. "I'm confident that with the changes and innovations introduced to make the force compatible with changing environments, the police will continue to give exemplary service in line with the country's advancement," Tuanku Jaafar said. The King was addressing officers and men at the presentation of colours to the Royal Malaysia Police, the second in 36 years, in recognition of the sacrifices of officers and men of the force to the nation. A total of 1,967 officers and men led by ACP Mohd Sabtu Osman mounted a parade to mark the event at the Police Training Centre, here. It coincided with the official renaming of the Police Field Force (PFF) as the General Operations Force (GOF), the largest police unit with paramilitary function. Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Mahathir Mohamad, who is also Home Minister, and the deputy ministers Datuk Tajol Rosli Ghazali and Datuk Ong Ka Ting were present. The event also marked the official dissolution of the PFF's two elite units, the Special Action Force (SAF) and the '69 Commando Unit (VAT 69). They are now combined into the Special Operations Force (SOF). The police emblem on the new colours also underwent a change with a lion's head being replaced with that of a tiger, symbolising strength, bravery and fighting spirit. Tuanku Jaafar presented colours to the GOF, the SOF, the Marine Police, the Federal Reserve Unit (FRU), the Police Air Wing and 17 batallions under the GOF. His majesty later blessed the police's main colours, presented for the second time in the force's 190-year-old history. It first received the colours 36 years ago to the day, on Nov 11 in 1961, from the Yang di-Pertuan Agong then, Tuanku Syed Putra. -- BERNAMA SN ZUL rn .

We have made significant strides in eradicating hardcore poverty, we have developed a diversified economic base, increased the quality of life of the average citizen and created a progressive civil service which embraces change. But it is also clear that we face significant challenges to achieve the ambitious goals of Vision 2020, by the year 2020. I am confident that this Government Transformation Programme (GTP) Roadmap is what we need to help chart our path towards Vision 2020. It details a bold and unprecedented programme to begin to transform the Government and to renew the Government’s focus on delivering services to the rakyat. The scope of this GTP is broad, and will encompass every Ministry within government.
