The new Public Order Management equipment will assist the Fiji Police officers in not only conducting their work, but will augur well with boosting Fiji’s reputation of delivering specialized training in this field for the region.

The Mobile Force yesterday received the equipment from the Australian Federal Police.

Acting Commissioner of Police Juki Fong Chew says the handover is a testament to the enduring partnership under the Vuvale and Solesolevaki agreements at both government and institutional levels.
