Police officers with uniforms drinking beer could be an offense under the Police Act - What do you say Mr. Commissioner?

THIS photograph below of PNG policemen in uniforms drinking beer in public could be an offense under the Police Act 1998.

Who knows, only the Police Commissioner knows anything about this and his officers. Well they are cops, so it means they can do anything they wanted including breaking laws???

The Government of Papua New Guinea is 
spending a lot of money to train young men and women for six (6) intensive months at Bomana Police College to provide policing service to the community. The policemen and women are no difference to the hard working teachers and nurses employed by the government throughout the country who serve with humility, dignity and pride for their country.

Their working conditions are almost the same with housing a bigger problem for all. They are being paid by the people of PNG through tax.

While hard working teachers and nurses can diligently perform their jobs with great concern and pride which was evident through great respect from the public, the police on the other hand have lost public trust and in most cases their become very hostile to citizens. So they don't get a respect from the public.

Police brutality is one of the biggest issues in PNG. Successive governments have failed to solve this ongoing problem of police brutality. When will it stop??


Police Force is supposed to be one of the well disciplined forces in the society but the behaviours of many policemen and women indicate that they do not care or rather they do not know how to behave in a mannerly approach when dealing with cases.


So Mr. Police Commissioner, do you wanted to encourage officers to take alcohol on working hours with uniforms on? So do you allow the Government to pay them while they are enjoying drinking and causing fear and intimidating people while at work?

Drinking beer while working day with uniforms on could be an offense under the Police Atc 1998.....,////........Mr. Police Commissioner, what do you say?

    Police top brass to deal with this. This could be an offense under police act. This uniform is a pride of RPNGC that separates disciplined officers from civilians. Drinking with uniform on is unacceptable. These two officers should have put on civilian clothes before drinking. Over to you COP.

    Dumb police man can do such. Drinking with the uniforms on. They need to be dismissed to create space for more competent and disciplined police recruits who can do better than this..

  8. Police officers whilst on duty are forbidden to consume any alcohol or drugs, they can be reprimanded or dismissed from the force it is an ongoing drinking problem!

    "The policemen and women are no difference to teachers and nurses employed by the government throughout the country who serve with humility, dignity and pride for their country.

    Here's the difference: teachers and nurses can't take their guns and their frustrations home with them in their official police vehicles, or spend an hour pulling people over on their way home to collect their Friday night beer and buai money.

    Abuse of power is institutionalised, to the point that people are joining the police BECAUSE of the possibilities of "earning" more money through blatant intimidation.
