JOHOR BAHARU, Feb 18 (Bernama) -- In a bid to help police beef up safety in Iskandar Malaysia, a Geographic Information System (GIS) will be set up in the development region.
Johor police chief Datuk Mohd Mokhtar Mohd Shariff said two software were given to the Johor Contingent Police from the Iskandar Regional Development Authority (Irda) to launch the system.
"We hope by using this system foreign investors will be more confident about the safety in Iskandar Malaysia and encourage them to carry out economic activities there," he said after a presentation ceremony of two GIS-equipped computers to Irda chief executive officer, Ismail Ibrahim, here Thursday.

PUTRAJAYA: The deputy prime minister has called to heighten joint enforcement initiatives among state governments, the Wildlife Department and Peninsular Malaysia Forestry Department to curb encroachment and poaching.
