Op Selamat 15/2019 campaign for the upcoming festive season launched to promote community safety and security

Telekom Malaysia Berhad (TM) continues to collaborate with Polis DiRaja Malaysia (PDRM) for community safety and security in conjunction with the upcoming Hari Raya Aidilfitri celebration with the launch of the annual safety campaign "Op Selamat 15/2019" todayThe campaign, which marks the 22nd consecutive years of collaboration between both parties, aimed at increasing public awareness on road safety and home security this Raya celebration season.​

The campaign was launched by Dato' Seri Abdul Hamid Bador, the Inspector General of Police, who also flagged off the 'Traffic Monitoring Team' and a convoy of motorcyclists and cars to symbolically emphasise the campaign's message. Also present at the event were Tuan Haji Rosli Man Chairman, TM, Imri Mokhtar, Acting Group Chief Executive Officer, TM, senior management of TM Group and other police officers of various ranks.

Speaking at the launching ceremony, Tuan Haji Rosli Man said, "As a responsible corporate citizen, TM is committed to its role in supporting the Government's efforts towards the nation's well-being. This year, once again, we continue our long standing collaboration with PDRM for Op Selamat safety campaign. The safety of road users and their homes are of the utmost importance during this festive holiday season. This is why we would like to remind all members of the public to adopt proper and courteous driving etiquette as well as be alert of any break-in attempts in your neighbouring community."

"This year also marks the 22nd consecutive year of our involvement in this campaign, reflecting our unwavering support towards the Government's initiatives to reduce the road mishaps rate and to improve home safety during festive season. Our participation is also in line with our #MoreForYou campaign that encapsulates our pledge to do even more for our customers specifically, and Malaysians in general, and in this respect, towards making Malaysia a safer place for all," he added.

Op Selamat 15/2019 continues to bring safety messages from the previous years' campaigns where the focus encompasses the safety of Malaysian homes while the residents are away for the festive holiday. This 15th edition of the campaign - aptly themed "Rumah Selamat, Selamat Sampai ke Destinasi" will be running for two (2) weeks beginning from 29 May until 12 June 2019.

For this year's campaign, TM is contributing various necessities for Op Selamat operation centres at 14 states nationwide. These necessities are for the convenience of the police officers on-duty along the roads identified as accident-prone areas.

At the same time, members of the public who will be going back to their home town or 'kampung' during the upcoming Hari Raya break are advised to inform the police to ensure the safety of their homes.
