Batu Ampar Urban Village Bimaspol Member, Aiptu Riyan assessed the integrated security post was very effective in preventing or minimizing the occurrence of brawls which usually occurred every weeknight at that location.
"Perhaps, this is because of the quiet area. But, now, it can be controlled after the post was set up," he explained.
RW 03 Batu Ampar Chairman, Abbas explained that on regular days, the post is guarded by residents from RT 09 and 10, starting from 9 PM to 4.30 AM.
