SJ VPU

Voluntary Patrol Unit (VPU)
Voluntary Patrol Unit (VPU) is initiated by residents of Subang Jaya/USJ to jointly patrol with polise and MPSJ to increase safety for ALL in light of the ever increasing crime. VPU is in its 16th week of patrol.

Objective of VPU
VPU objective is to deter crime through joint patrol between residents, police and MPSJ in patroling vehicle - NOT ON FOOT. VPU believed that by increasing the presence of patroling cars in residential areas would deter crime slowly, but surely.

Modus operandi of VPU
VPU patrols Mon - Fri, 9am - 5pm. There are 4 shifts per day. Shift hours are 9-11am, 11am-1pm, 2 - 2:30pm and 3:30 - 5pm. Currently VPU Do Not patrol during the weekends, public holidays or in the evenings. We plan to patrol during weekends, public holidays as well as evenings once we have more volunteers and the patrol vehicle to do so.

Now everyone can PATROL. It's only 2 hours.

VPU seek ALL residents of Subang Jaya and USJ to volunteer ONLY 2 hours of their busy working time PER MONTH to jointly patrol. We have busy bank staffs, retirees, senior citizens and ladies as volunteers. Everyone can volunteer.

For those busy working people, we ask you to seek your boss' permission to allow you to do COMMUNITY WORK 2 HOURS PER MONTH to patrol.

How to get your boss' permission
You know which day and time your company is not so busy, seek your boss' permission to allow you either to go in late, for example: 2nd Tuesday of every month, to patrol from 9am to 11am, and then go in to work. Or leave early, every 2nd Tuesday of the month, to patrol 3pm-5pm. That's how I get bank staffs to volunteer too. So there is NO reason for you not able to patrol.

Please give 2 hours per month of your time to make Subang Jaya/USJ a SAFER place for ALL.

If you would like to volunteer, please contact mcmak64@hotmail.com or sms 012.383.6508
