JOHOR BAHARU, Oct 31 (Bernama) -- Two thousand units of closed-circuit television (CCTV) cameras costing RM41.4 million will be installed at Iskandar Malaysia by the end of 2010, said Home Minister Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Tun Hussein.
He said the installation of the cameras was specified in the Iskandar Malaysia Security and Protection Master Plan aimed at turning the corridor into a Safe Town and achieving the National Key Result Area (NKRA), namely to reduce the street crime index by 20 per cent at the end of 2010.
"As a futuristic development area, Iskandar Malaysia must place the security aspects and Safe Town elements as its priority. This will give an impact and direct implication to the confidence of investors, tourists, foreigners and the local people on peace and safety in the area," he told reporters after the handing over of the police station and facilities in Danga Bay, here Saturday.
He said that besides the CCTV cameras, emphasis was also given on the deployment of auxiliary policemen which would involve an allocation of RM7 million as well as 138 Community Police Posts costing RM55 million.
At the same time, Hishammuddin urged more private companies to contribute in helping the government to provide facilities including community police stations, CCTV cameras, mobile police stations and patrol cars in the housing schemes developed.
