MUKAH – The Mukah District Education Office (PPD) and the Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM) have reinforced their partnership through a consensus meeting aimed at improving student discipline and safety.
The session, designated as Mukah IPD Consensus Meeting No. 01/2026, was held on 23 April 2026 at Dewan Sri Tapou, Mukah District Education Office.
The meeting was attended by Mukah District Police Chief YDH DSP Muhamad Rizal Bin Alias, alongside division chiefs and police station heads from the district.
Chairing the session was YBrs Mr Abdul Rahim Bin Mohtar, the Mukah District Education Assistant Officer (PKHEM). A total of 32 senior assistant teachers responsible for student affairs from both primary and secondary schools across Mukah also participated.
The gathering focused on strengthening collaboration between the education office and the police in addressing issues such as bullying, drug abuse, traffic offences, and inappropriate behaviour among students.
Both agencies agreed to enhance intervention strategies through awareness programmes, crime prevention talks, and continuous monitoring.
School Liaison Officers (PPS) will play a more active role in bridging communication between schools and enforcement authorities.
This initiative is expected to foster a safer and more conducive learning environment, ensuring that disciplinary issues are managed effectively.
Officials highlighted that the cooperation between PPD and PDRM is not only about enforcement but also about nurturing responsible behaviour among students.
By combining educational guidance with law enforcement support, the partnership aims to produce a generation that is disciplined, resilient, and prepared to contribute positively to the nation’s development.
At the conclusion of the meeting, DSP Muhamad Rizal presented nine pairs of cloth uniforms to teachers involved in the Police Cadet Corps at three secondary schools in Mukah.
The gesture symbolised the police’s commitment to supporting school-based initiatives that instil discipline and civic responsibility among students.
The consensus meeting reflects a growing emphasis on community-based policing and education collaboration in Sarawak.
With schools increasingly facing challenges related to student welfare and discipline, such partnerships are seen as vital in ensuring that preventive measures are both practical and sustainable.
