The Boroko Police Operation Centre was reopened on Thursday December 5th after four years of being relocated to Konedobu while leaving the old center for renovation works. Acting Assistant Commissioner of Police and Commander of the National Capital District and Central Province, Benjamin Turi, officiated the opening, emphasizing the importance of the facility in supporting police operations. The Centre, located at Boroko Police Station, will now be utilized by police communication officers to receive and disseminate information crucial for policing in the National Capital District (NCD) and Central Province. Commander Turi urged officers from the Centre to take their responsibilities seriously, as the facility serves as the nerve center for coordinating police responses and public assistance. He acknowledged the challenges of staff shortages and assured that management is looking into recruiting more personnel to support operations. "This Centre is vital for effective communication between victims and police units," Turi stated. Detective Superintendent Conrad Jensen, representing the Papua New Guinea-Australian Policing Partnership (PNG-APP), expressed satisfaction with the reopening. He noted that the improved setup would facilitate better interaction and communication among officers, enhancing policing efforts in the region. National Capital District Metropolitan Superintendent Silva Sika also commended PNG-APP for their assistance in completing the project. Sika stressed the importance of maintaining the Centre's operations and ensuring that all public calls are attended to promptly. He assured that the Centre would be closely monitored to guarantee efficiency in addressing crime reports and dispatching police units.
