In July, Anwar announced a RM150mil allocation for the police force to, among other things, refurbish old police quarters and stations and ensure the wellbeing of police personnel so that they would be able to work in a conducive and comfortable environment."They risk their lives daily to ensure that the country is in safe hands, away from danger.
