Sahimi Hussin; Deputy Head of the Commercial Crime Investigation Department, Supt. Mohd Ridzuan Nor Ihsan.
The panel discussion focused on key issues currently affecting the Sungai Siput community.

The event was officiated by the Perak Police Chief, Dato’ Noor Hisham Nordin.
In his officiating speech, he expressed appreciation to all parties involved in organizing the program, especially the local residents who attended and gave their strong support to the initiative.
