Bali Police Chief Reminds Officers to Serve Public Quickly and Humanely
Bali Regional Police Chief Daniel Adityajaya has reiterated to his ranks the need to provide maximum, professional and humane service to the public. In doing so, public confidence will increase.
During a leadership roll call in the front courtyard of Bali Regional Police Headquarters on Monday, 9 March 2026, Daniel reaffirmed that the Indonesian Police exists fundamentally as a protector, guardian and servant of the public.
A police officer must not see themselves as above the public, but rather position themselves below, with humility, readiness to help, and presence to provide solutions to every problem faced by the community.
“As police officers, we are protectors, guardians and servants of the public. For this reason, we must truly position ourselves as servants. Never feel above the public. Place ourselves below, because our duty is to serve the public sincerely, professionally and humanely,” he emphasised.
Daniel also stressed that good service is not merely a matter of speed, but also about empathy, courteous communication, and police presence that can provide a sense of security and comfort for the public.
With this commitment, it is hoped that the entire Bali Police apparatus will draw closer to the community, build public trust, and present a humane, responsive police force that is always present as a solution in the midst of public life.
To maintain stable public security and order ahead of the celebration of Nyepi Day Caka 1948 and Idul Fitri 1447 H, the Bali Police Department has conducted personnel readiness drills in the front courtyard of Bali Regional Police Headquarters on Monday (9/3/2026).
This enhanced routine activity represents a proactive step by the Indonesian Police in anticipating potential security vulnerabilities on the Island of Bali during major religious celebrations.
Bali Regional Police Operations Chief, Senior Commissioner Soelistijono, in his remarks stated that this activity is being carried out to maintain public security and order ahead of the Nyepi and Idul Fitri celebrations.
“This activity is implemented through increased patrols at several vulnerable points, securing places of worship, crowded centres, and vehicle inspections to anticipate various potential threats to public order and security,” said the Bali Police Operations Chief.
“Additionally, personnel are also conducting preventive and preemptive activities by issuing appeals to the public to work together in maintaining environmental security,” he added.
Soelistijono also noted that this step represents the commitment of the Bali Regional Police in providing a sense of security and comfort for the public who will carry out a series of worship and celebrations of major religious days in Bali.
