In a commanding call to action, Traffic Chief, Senior Superintendent Mahendra Singh, addressing all Traffic ranks gathered at the Region 4A Divisional Headquarters in Georgetown on Sunday morning, emphasised the importance of professionalism and courtesy in their line of duty.

During the inspection, Singh reviewed the ranks on parade, addressing them on crucial matters concerning Welfare, Performance, and Conduct. The Chief’s emphasis was not just on enforcing the law but on being ambassadors of trust.
He reminded the ranks that their interactions were windows through which both foreign nationals and residents perceive the nation.
Earlier this year, Commissioner of Police, Clifton Hicken conducted a general inspection for appearance and conduct with ranks from the Police Headquarters at Eve Leary, Georgetown, and sounded warnings against indiscipline during the conduct of their duties.
The top official reminded the ranks that demand will always be great, noting that excellent work gives you more.
He also charged the ranks to maintain discipline and professionalism despite challenges faced in or out of the line of duty.
Punctuality, discipline, and absenteeism were other areas that Commissioner Hicken spoke about during his remarks. He also spoke extensively on the steps that the Guyana Police Force is taking concerning modernisation and building the capacity of the Force to serve the nation. (G9)
