The PKB legislator assessed that\nwith the ratification of the law, the National Police is expected to be\ncloser to and trusted by the public. He stated that regulatory changes\nmust be followed by a change in perspective. \u201cI am optimistic that the\nnew Police Law will further strengthen the transformation of the\nNational Police into a modern institution that is close to the people\nand trusted by the public,\u201d said Abdullah. \u201cThis new Police Law must be\nsupported by National Police personnel who possess a new paradigm, in\nline with the spirit of the new KUHP and KUHAP which uphold legal\ncertainty, substantive justice, professionalism, and respect for\ncitizens\u2019 rights,\u201d he continued. Through the current Police Law,\naccording to him, the National Police Commission (Kompolnas) has greater\nauthority in monitoring the law enforcement process. He confirmed that\ntransparency and accountability of the National Police institution are\nprioritised in the law. \u201cThe strengthening of Kompolnas is expected to\nsupport external oversight of the police institution,\u201d said Abdullah.
