Police gain followers on micro blogs
POLICE in many Chinese cities have started using their own Twitter-like micro blogs to keep the public in touch and informed of fraud alerts and public security news.
Guangdong police took the lead in the creation of an online Public Security Bureau, and that's proved a step in the right direction to keep connection between officers and residents, China News Service reported today.
Now all 21 cities in Guangdong have their micro blog account. Beijing Police also followed suit yesterday by starting not only a micro blog, but a public relations department too.
Using social networking is a great new working method for Chinese police, the report said.
But change was difficult. When police in Guangzhou city first started to use micro blog on sina.com.cn this May, they were lambasted for not allowing other users to comment on its tweets.
One day later, the ban was lifted. Now over 6,400 people are following the web police department.
The micro blogs are updated frequently every day and alert residents to dangers such as street hustlers, robbers and roadworks.
Police are also using the micro blogs to solicit suggestions from residents, Deng Jianwei with Guangdong police said.
All comments will be responded to within 24 hours, Deng said.
