Making Singapore safe : thirty years of the National Crime Prevention Council

Information About

Tells how the National Crime Prevention Council (NCPC) has quietly worked with grassroots organisations, industry and the Government to transform an apathetic public into a proud movement of community activists. Looks at how this bold experiment in harnessing the community complemented the Singapore Polices "radical" move to neighbourhood policing, allowing a zero-tolerance approach to crime that is governed by public consensus, not fear.
