Will MHA give Police DAC Lu a medal for doing nothing?

Deputy Assistant Commissioner (DAC) Lu Yeow Lim, was questioned by the committee for more than four hours over his decision to hold the ground instead of trying to disperse rioters as they torched police patrol cars and an ambulance.

Former police commissioner Tee Tua Ba said the perceived police inaction at the time could have made the rioters bolder.

DAC Lu hit back by saying that the police doctrine was to hold and "wait for superior forces" before moving in. His small group of officers could have been overwhelmed, which would have forced police to open fire, he said. But COI chairman and retired judge G. Pannir Selvam, replied: "It is just your imagination and self-delusion."

An armed police force, big or small, must always suppress the rioters with full force to prevent the rioting from escalating and spreading. What the shitty DAC did was wrong, a reflection of his cowardice to take firm action and responsibility. He is not fit for the job of DAC.
