ational Police chief Gen. Tito Karnavian launched Saturday six phone apps in a package called Smile Police, made by the Central Java Police.
Speaking in Semarang, Central Java, Tito announced the Android-based apps: Panic Button, E-Babinkamtibmas (community policing), E-Public Service, E-Complain, E-Office, and E-Learning.
Tito said the digitization of public services was in line with an order from President Joko “Jokowi” Widodo.
“The IT-based service will improve our services,” he said as quoted by Antara news agency.
He said the package would be available for Central Java residents but hoped availability could be expanded nationwide.
“This is input for the National Police. If we cannot make a new one, just adopt this app package,” Tito said.
Central Java Police chief Insp. Gen. Condro Kirono said the apps were available for download. He said the Panic Button app has been downloaded 5,000 times in the province. (evi)
