RAKAN COP REWARD PROGRAM

Rakan COP Reward Program is the extension and enhancement to the current Rakan COP
Community Program to reward points to public individual who cares to report criminal cases to
police department using SMS via their mobile phones. Points rewarded/earned are based on the
seriousness of the case reported as well as the quality of the report made.
It is found that the current Rakan Cop system does not get high public participation and the
quality of report is much to be desired. Hence the primary objective of this project is to
encourage and thus inculcate better interaction between public and police personnel for better
combating crimes in Malaysia.
The secondary objective is to have a reward system that can help to support the National Key
Result Area (NKRA) under the crime category. This project also encompasses elements for
building sense of loyalty and community participation to inform the police on crime cases before
the crime is committed. Author also will define the boundaries of the system that will be
implemented in which the development is to be studied, analyzed, designed, implemented and
finally improved.
Methodology that will be used during the system development is prototype methodology.
Besides that the author also emphasize on the community responsibilities towards fighting the
crime in Malaysia.
The results and discussion will discuss on contribution of the system, next step need to be taken
and other aspect that needs to emphasize in the project. Future work will include on integration
between the author's enhanced Information Monitoring & Management System (IMMS) that
support the Rakan COP Reward Program with USSD gateway.
