This Ramadan, Telekom Malaysia Berhad (TM) shared #KeajaibanRamadan with Malaysians at large when the Company continues its collaboration with Polis DiRaja Malaysia (PDRM) for the launch of the annual safety campaign 'Op Selamat 11' today at TM Convention Centre Kuala Lumpur. This community safety and security campaign, which marks 20 consecutive years of collaboration between both parties, aimed at increasing public awareness on road safety and home security this balik kampung season during the upcoming Hari Raya Aidilfitri celebration.

Op Selamat 11 was officially launched by Tan Sri Dato' Sri Khalid Abu Bakar, the Inspector General of Police. Also present at the launching ceremony were Dato' Sri Mohammed Shazalli Ramly, Group Chief Executive Officer, TM as well as police officers of various ranks and TM's senior management team.

Speaking at the launching ceremony, Dato' Sri Shazalli said, 'As a responsible corporate citizen, TM is committed to playing its role in supporting Government's efforts towards the nation's well-being and once again, we continue our long standing collaboration with PDRM for Op Selamat 11 safety campaign this year. The safety of road users and their homes are the utmost important thing during this festive holiday season. This is why we would like to remind everybody to adopt proper and courteous driving etiquette as well as being alert of any break-in attempts in your neighbouring community. This is our beloved country, so together, we should work hand-in-hand with the enforcement agencies to keep it safe and secure for us, our loved ones and the future generations - this is Negaraku, Malaysia. As for TM, we are ready to assist Malaysians who encounter emergency situations through our 999 Emergency Call Centre and connect you with the relevant emergency agencies.'

'This year also marks 20 consecutive year of our involvement in this campaign, reflecting our unwavering support towards the Government's initiatives to reduce the road mishaps rate and to improve home safety during festive season, in line with one of the National Key Results Area (NKRA) which is, reducing crime,' he added.

Op Selamat 11 campaign continues to bring safety messages from the previous years' campaigns where the focus encompasses the safety of Malaysian homes while the residents are away for the festive holiday. This Op Selamat campaign is also part of #KeajaibanRamadan that TM intends to share with Malaysians nationwide, towards establishing a safer and prosperous nation. The 11 edition of the campaign - aptly themed 'Rumah Selamat & Selamat Sampai ke Destinasi' will be running for two (2) weeks beginning from 18 June until 2 July 2017.

For this year's campaign, TM is also contributing car stickers and motorcycle stickers which will be distributed to police officers to increase their visibility on the road.

'In the spirit of sharing the barakah of the holy month of Ramadan, TM through the participation of its TM Reaching Out Volunteers (TM ROVers), also supported PDRM in the preparation and distribution of bubur lambuk to the KL citizens today. We will end the day with a special buka puasa with PDRM officers from various ranks as an appreciation to them. It is indeed the #KeajaibanRamadan that we should embrace during this holy month,' Dato' Sri Shazalli further explained.

TM and PDRM will be distributing the bubur lambuk to the public and PDRM's ground officers around the vicinity of Masjid Jamek and Sogo.

The #KeajaibanRamadan was also shared by TM's IPTV service, HyppTV through its community-oriented activities recently such as donation drive to collect Raya clothes and duit raya as well a buka puasa session with orphans and Tahfiz students at Masjid Al-Ikhlas, Shah Alam, appreciation for the veteran artistes in collaboration with Yayasan Artis 1Malaysia (YA1M) and a food giveaway session at Bazaar Ramadan, Stadium Melawati Shah Alam.
