China Daily | Updated: 2007-05-14 07:14

Getting police officers to rid themselves of rude words marks a significant progress in law enforcement, says a commentary in Beijing News. An excerpt follows:

Since April, Beijing police officers are being exposed to a series of special activities and educational programs to help them get rid of speaking or acting rudely while on duty. Punishment for rude speech or actions are being imposed in cases that can be proved.

Under the campaign that runs till July, police officers are required to be polite and professional in the discharge of their duties. They are asked to use terms like "thank you" and "please" when necessary. Even while dealing with someone who has broken the law, they are being told, propriety should be observed.
