JOHOR police have set up a hotline for Singaporeans to call if they run into trouble or fall victim to crime in the Malaysian state across the Causeway.

The 24-hour line - 07-2212999 - will be manned by staff who can handle calls in English, Malay, Mandarin and Tamil.

Johor police have promised to respond to a call for help within 15 minutes.

The hotline was set up following a recent dialogue between the Malaysian High Commissioner to Singapore, Mr N. Parameswaran and Johor police chief Mokhtar Shariff.

They discussed various steps to take to counter crimes in Johor and to create a safe environment for both Malaysians and foreign visitors.

'The High Commission hopes that the serious efforts being continuously undertaken by the Johor Police authorities would help reduce the incidence of crimes in Johor state and would also create conditions conducive to the easier movement of people and goods between Malaysia and Singapore,' said a statement from the Malaysian High Commission here on Friday.

fishy or not... oh well but one thing for sure they have erected a big police outpost opp the shopping mall near the railway station.

The irony to this is that the police station is just right beside the Shell petrol kiosk just before the Esso one at the Msia Custom. The last case of car robbery with gunshots occurred right outside their doorstep...

Hmmm... go figure.
