MIRI: Having too many groups setting up security patrolling teams in the commercial and residential areas may not be good for Miri, says deputy mayor Julaihi Mohamad.

Speaking after the Miri City Council full board meeting, Julaihi said a large number of these “voluntary patrolling” units might cause confusion among the public.
