MCPF Penang appreciates the great support shown by our Chief Police Officer YDH CP Dato’ A. Thaiveegan who, in spite of his very tight schedule, turned up for the event, demonstrating his keenness to imbibe inputs and ideas as to how the menace and scourge of Drugs can be battled more aggressively.
