Sungai Siput on September 08 ~ 05 ~ Ibu Pejabat Balai Polis Sungai SIput

Sungai Siput Balai Polis have been confirmed relocated to new area. When? I don't know but i guess it earlier than July 2008... Is it permanent? Don't Know either.

This matters really made me questioning why the relocation is needed. For the past few decade, Balai polis Sungai Siput is located in the middle of the town. It is most convenience, strongly sense of police presence to maintain security, Beautiful (it been undergo major renovation last time...maybe 10 years ago...?) and one of the landmark for sungai siput town.

Now if you see the below picture, the "new" police station is far from being better than previous location. Location wise is failed...at least for 5-10 years from now. That area is too far from town. For those stay at Jalong Tinggi, Rasah or Sg Buloh...you guy have to travel from south point to north point of sungai siput map!

Structural Failed. I know police @ kementerian Dalam Negeri have announced that in future police station might be your housing neighbour or shop lot neighbour. But i really don't think the "new" police station have any better point than the previous.

About dozen of double storey shop lot plus numbers of single Terrance house have been fenced as police station area. Friendly neighbour? I have no idea how big is the area but one thing for sure, it doesn't look like a proper police station and police hostel. Its give me feeling that the developer of the housing area have been gladly sold a big portion of the area to police station as occupant rate for his project is too low.....demand too low.

And the most important question is What they going to do with the old police station at middle of the town?

I do hope the "new" police station will only be temporary relocated same as Balai Bomba.. Because the whole scenario giving me impression that the Superior landmark of Sungai Siput police station have been exchanged with some inferiors deal.


The old Police Station at middle of the town... likes abandon homes


New Police Station attached with shoplot...



Fenced area are belongs to police Station


Main Entrance to Police station... Behind you can see got housing area... Part of the housing area + double storey shoplot are fenced as "New Police Station"


Old police station is at middle of the town , just beside river and balai bomba. Now it had been relocated to northern area further up after Hospital Sungai Siput.

No good! if they move because the balai police is also part of Sungai Siput history....part of our memory. I heard that the balai bomba is only temporary relocated to Ramble Panjang and on the old plot they will built a new balai bomba. Hopefully, balai polis also only move to temporary site.
