Malang, (malangkota.go.id) – The Kandani or Your Communication with the Police Program received appreciation from the Mayor of Malang, Drs. H. Sutiaji. According to him, the program initiated by the East Java Police Chief and run by the ranks of the Polres, including the Malang City Police, is one of the means of absorbing and resolving residents' problems. The program, which collaborates with the ranks of the TNI, the Malang City Government and various parties, has also received a warm welcome from residents.

These were some of the things conveyed by the number one person in the Malang City Government on Tuesday night (27/9/2022) after the Kandani event at the Penanggungan Village Office, Klojen District. Mayor Sutiaji said that in addition to providing solutions for residents, this program also increases public literacy. The reason is, residents can understand various things that may have previously been considered a problem.
As with traffic congestion, road repairs, culverts, and other public facilities. "So when there is a damaged road for example, it does not mean that the government does not want to come down or fix it, but basically just waiting for the decision and the specified time. From an explanation like this, residents will understand and not trigger horizontal conflict," explained Sutiaji.
From the event that is held routinely and goes around to each sub-district, he said, it is a collaborative program. This means that not only problems related to police services will be resolved, but almost all citizen problems will be covered. "We from the Malang City Government will respond quickly to what the citizens' problems are, so that the government's presence in the community can really be felt and is beneficial," explained Sutiaji.
A similar statement was made by the Malang City Police Chief, Senior Commissioner Budi Hermanto. According to him, with this program, his party is optimistic that they can help residents optimally. "We will make various breakthroughs so that the community is protected, such as SIM making services to the sub-district, public order services and reducing traffic jams. Together, everyone can do it," he explained. (say/ram)
