JAKARTA - The 77th anniversary of the Riau Regional Police's (Polwan) female police (Polwan) was marked by a meaningful moment. Policewomen took the front lines in securing the student demonstration at the Riau Regional People's Representative Council (DPRD) Building.
During the security operation, policewomen were seen at the forefront. They tried to calm the crowd in various ways, including handing out flowers. Rocky Gerung appreciated the policewomen's actions.
"I wanted to give a speech, but I saw the atmosphere was peaceful. In fact, in the peaceful demonstration, I wanted to show that I have 11 fingers, 11 fingers for the Riau Regional Police's (Polwan) female police," said Rocky on Monday, September 1.
According to him, the presence of policewomen at the front of the protesters fostered a close relationship between the guardians of justice, namely the policewomen, and the students, who are future thinkers.
"The Riau Regional Police have been very successful in demonstrating that demonstrations are okay, riots are not allowed, and policewomen are on the front lines to prevent rioters from entering," said Rocky.
Rocky emphasized that peace begins with a friendly face and a sincere smile.
"The protesters are smart, the rioters are stupid. Policewomen glorify intelligence. Therefore, this peaceful demonstration in Riau can be a model for Indonesia. Policewomen are on the front lines not to hinder, but to provide a sense of comfort. And comfort must precede a sense of security," he added.
After leaving the Regional People's Representative Council (DPRD), Rocky, the Founder of the Tumbuh Institute, visited the Riau Police's Tree Bank with policewomen. There, he associated the symbols of productive trees with the role of policewomen.
According to him, the 77-year-old policewoman is proof that this country must be nurtured with an ethic of care.
"Policewomen are crucial to the growth of prosperity and peace in this country. They are like the avocado trees here, containing folate, which is essential for new life. Policewomen are also fostering a generation of Indonesians who are healthy and green," he said.
Riau Police Chief of Human Resources, Senior Commissioner Anissullah M. Ridha, added that this series of activities demonstrates that the Riau Policewomen are present not only to maintain security but also to prioritize humanity and social awareness.
"Policewomen are on the front lines, providing a sense of comfort, maintaining peace, and fostering concern for the community and the environment. That is the spirit we carry in the 77th anniversary of Polwan," he said.
The 77th anniversary of Polwan in Riau also serves as a concrete call to strengthen the ethics of caring, both in safeguarding peaceful democracy and in preserving the environment.
