Police website builds bridges to community (China Daily) Updated: 2004-03-19 01:24 The Guangdong Provincial Bureau of Public Security
is seeking to establish a better reputation with the launch of a new website to
make its work more transparent.
Apart from some major criminal cases still under investigation or involving
national secrets, the website shows all the information the police are working
on within the province, according to Zheng Shaodong, deputy director of the
bureau.
Addressing a news conference in Guangzhou, capital of South China's Guangdong
Province, Thursday, Zheng said the police will be under the supervision of the
public and the news media through the website.
And people will be told everything they have the right to know through the
Internet.
The website which officially began operating Thursday will also help further
improve relations between police and local residents, Zheng said.
Residents will be able to complain about police work that used to seem
mysterious, and report police who are bending the law or regulations while they
are on duty to higher authorities, via the website, Zheng added.
In addition, the online service will allow residents to apply for passports,
travel documents, identity cards, frontier certificates and temporary resident
certificates.
Companies can also apply for police to check their fire prevention equipment
and citizens can also apply for vehicle license plates which can be used in both
Guangdong Province and bordering Hong Kong and Macao special administrative
regions.
All application results are released and updated on the website.
Officials are hoping the innovations will improve the bureau's efficiency and
management and help ensure honest police work for the good social order and
economic development, Zheng said.
