On Thursday January 26th the Community Police Officer, Inspector Felix Richards officially launched his project called “Customer Friendly Upgrade”. This project is one that inspector Richards has been working on for a while in collaboration with external partners who have been very instrumental in the whole process and which consists of several fazes. Realizing the financial situation that is being confronted with Officer Richards took on this challenge and reached out to external partners and involved them in the project. In doing this new avenues of communication and working cooperation between them and the police force were opened. The first faze of this project of this project is to enhance and upgrade the main entrance of the Police Headquarters in Philipsburg and at the same time create a more customer friendly environment for anyone visiting the police station. Part of the project also includes the improvement of the privacy and security of the public and for the officers and any other person beyond the public waiting area.
A presentation of this project was given to the Police management team by officer Richards and Mr. Delano Richardson, managing director of Design House International. The presentation was quite impressive and with the approval of both the Minister of Justice the Honorable R. Boasman and the Police management the project has started.
