00:00My colleague from Kulim Badar Baru raised the issue of shooting in the wild.

00:06Specifically, he raised two things.

00:09Is the government ready to consider adding a training module for private security control companies?

00:16And also, does the government have a plan to increase the safety guidance line?

00:22The safety guidance line is already there.

00:26The first is under the local authorities.

00:29The second is under the Bomb and Rescue Department.

00:33And the third is under the Government of State Police Chief.

00:36The guidance line is already there,

00:38where a business center is located.

00:41It is connected to the PBT guidance line,

00:44the bomb guidance line,

00:46and the safety guidance line under the State Police Chief.

00:49What's new?

00:50Is the government ready to add a training module for private security control companies?

00:57In this country, KDN is a security agency that provides lessons to the security control companies.

01:04The security control industry is large.

01:06It is between Rp10 billion to Rp12 billion per year.

01:10So, the number of security control companies that we provide lessons to is around 1,200.

01:19Before they can operate,

01:22the security control must first go through the training module provided by the police force.

01:28The latest incident opens up a new dimension.

01:33Because the situation at that time,

01:35in a shopping mall,

01:37the lives of the public were threatened,

01:39and the shopping mall

01:42was able to serve the security control of the security control companies.

01:48Regarding the incident that happened,

01:50I have made an immediate discussion with the Malaysian Security Industry Association.

01:56And they welcomed it well,

01:58and they are ready to include that suggestion,

02:02which is to add a training module.

02:05Especially in terms of theory and practice,

02:08the safety of the public was prioritized at that moment.

02:17What immediate steps can the security control take?

02:23Their role and responsibility at the scene,

02:26before the police arrived.

02:29That has already been discussed,

02:32from the recent events.
