M’sians Praise Kind Abang Polis For Going Beyond Call of Duty to Help Motorcyclist Who Ran Out of Fuel

Personnel of the Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM) have been getting some bad press recently due to some bad apples in the ranks. With that in mind, it’s important to not generalise everyone in uniform based on these regrettable instances as they’re only a minority and not representative of all police personnel.

One video that has been making its rounds on social media showcases how helpful and kind the police could be, showing how several policemen of the PDRM Traffic Enforcement and Investigation Department (JSPT) went out of their way to help a motorcyclist who was stranded on an expressway after running out of fuel.

Abang Polis going beyond the call of duty

As shared by PDRM on its official Facebook page, Sergeant Azrizal Che Rahim, Lance Corporal Mohamad Zafri Rusli, Constable Wan Muhamad Amirul Wan Azrul and Constable Muhamad Nur Iman Mohd Kamaruddin of the Petaling Jaya District Police helped out the stranded motorcyclist.

Furthermore, one of the PDRM personnel can be seen helping out the motorcyclist by pushing the motorcycle with his foot as both of them ride to the nearest fuel station.

According to the post, the incident took place at the Damansara-Puchong Expressway (LDP), with the policemen going beyond the call of duty by helping push the motorcycle across a considerable distance. The original video was posted by TikTok user Nazreen Nasharuddin.

PDRM shared,

“The kind actions of the policemen should be followed by all police personnel, in line with the ‘police and society are closely entwined’ slogan”.

You can only find Abang Polis such as this in Malaysia

In the comments section, many Malaysians praised the Abang Polis for his kind actions and stressed that not all police personnel are as bad as how the media in our country are seemingly portraying them to be.

One commenter thanked the policeman for his selfless act and hoped that he would be getting good karma from it.

Meanwhile, one commenter that only in Malaysia can we find such sporting and helpful police personnel. Speaking from personal experience, the commenter said that he had been assisted by the police similar to the video many times before.
