Effective contemporary crime prevention relies heavily on partnerships and multiagency approaches. These partnerships and multiagency approaches involve using different resources, skills and capacity. Some of these resources and capacity are not available within the police themselves. Partnerships and multiagency approaches help us to harness these resources and capacity. In using the resources, skills and capacity of our partners, we can find ways of maximising our strength and, at the same time, minimising our weaknesses. Currently, out of the 1 116 police stations, 95% of these have community police forums. This is one area where we expect the implementation of a national youth service as a living example that the youth of today are not only interested in crass materialism.
