THE nationwide Rakan Cop programme is steadily becoming popular with 88,000 members registered in Kuala Lumpur alone since it was launched in 2006.
Kuala Lumpur police headquarters public affairs and Rakan Cop director ASP Suffian Sulaiman said police were now focusing on taxi drivers to channel information to Rakan Cop.
"This is because taxi drivers are regarded as the eyes and ears for the police," he said.
"Taxi drivers pick up people from all areas and it is possible that some of their passengers are shady characters... this can indirectly help us obtain information, especially on crime cases."
Suffian hoped more Malaysians would take part in this programme to help police fight crime. For enquiries, call the Rakan Cop hotline at 03-21159999 or send SMS by typing polis KL and send to 32728.
