00:00As far as I know, a lot of people ask me why this case is a case of very serious cases, back to back, one after another.
00:14I think that's easy to say, that's the price that you have to pay as you modernize.
00:25In all the cases, or the majority of the cases, I try to ask the media, there is one thing that is common in all the cases.
00:38What is it?
00:41You are all criminal deaths, right?
00:44What is the common denominator, the common factor?
00:53What is it?
00:56Many say that Malaysians are not safe and so on, but there is just one common factor among all the cases.
01:03Zain Ryan case, the murder of his wife, yesterday in Subang Jaya, the murder and burning of a house,
01:21there are many more in the near future.
01:24What are the other cases?
01:26Kidnapping, rape, murder of children, there is one common factor among all the cases.
01:37Psycho?
01:42The victim recognizes the suspect and the suspect recognizes the victim.
01:48There is a family relationship, friendship, so in that context, there are things that happen between the two of them.
02:04There is also a relationship that becomes bad, a business that does not run well, there are also cases that happen due to misuse of illegal goods, and so on.
02:24So there is a common factor among this.
02:27In other words, in the context of Malaysia, random murder cases that happen spontaneously are so small.
02:44For example, the murder of a salmon, it happens in such a small scale, and in other countries it happens in a larger scale.
02:57So, in this context, BSU is established in the context of recognizing these factors, these dynamic factors,
03:11and then we show it to the basic makers to show a better foundation for society to change from what it is now to the future.
03:25This unit is chaired or placed under the D11 division, because there we have a qualified psychologist,
03:38and we also have an employee who is doing a PhD in psychology.
03:49So this is the way forward in the context of the crime investigation department itself,
03:55dealing with the threats of safety and crime in the future.
04:00We also apply the D6 element, that is, investigation officers.
04:08There is also a D7 element, to see in the context of gangsterism, how young people can be trapped in gangsterism, and so on.
04:19And D9 is in the context of serious crime.
04:24So, in this context, we hope that one day we will be able to have offices that have a caliber of profilers.
04:39And when we have profilers, we hope we can do predictive policing.
04:46So, that is still far away, but every thousand miles or whatever, you need to make that first step, right?
