Police: Call 999 for emergencies


PETALING JAYA: “If there’s something strange in your neighbourhood, who you gonna call?”The above is a line from a song featured in a popular 1980s movie but although it was a comedy, the question is apt in any emergency situation.

There was confusion several months ago when a robbery victim shared on Facebook that she was told to contact the police operations room instead of 999.
