Program Bandar Selamat Putrajaya (Safe City Programme)
Putrajaya's formal Safe City Programme — coordinating PPj, Ibu Pejabat Polis Daerah Putrajaya, and community stakeholders to sustain a low-crime urban environment. In 2025, Putrajaya recorded only 111 index crimes (IND-27 rate: 8.87 per 10,000 population), among the lowest in the Federal Territory, certified under MURNinets 2.0.
Overview
The Program Bandar Selamat Putrajaya is the formal, government-mandated Safe City Programme that positions Perbadanan Putrajaya (PPj) as the lead Public Local Authority (PBT) responsible for sustaining a low-crime, high-safety urban environment through the coordinated deployment of technology, institutional collaboration, and community engagement.
Operating since Putrajaya’s establishment as Malaysia’s federal administrative capital, the programme functions as the integrating framework that brings together Ibu Pejabat Polis Daerah Putrajaya (PDRM), the smart surveillance ecosystem (CCTV, IOC, PCC), and active community safety networks under a single governance structure — with annual performance certification submitted via MURNinets 2.0 (Program Jaringan Penunjuk Pembangunan Mampan Bandar-Luar Bandar Malaysia).
In 2025, Putrajaya recorded just 111 index crimes — a rate of 8.87 per 10,000 population — representing one of the lowest crime densities in the Malaysian Federal Territory and confirming Putrajaya’s status as a model safe city.
Programme Architecture
The Safe City Programme operates across three integrated layers:
| Layer | Description | Key Systems |
|---|---|---|
| Technology Layer | Automated surveillance, AI-assisted monitoring, and incident command | CCTV (1,000+ cameras), IOC, PCC |
| Institutional Layer | Formal police–PBT collaboration for crime data reporting, intelligence sharing, and enforcement coordination | Polis Daerah Putrajaya, PPj Enforcement Division |
| Community Layer | Resident-led safety participation, mobile incident reporting, and rapid emergency response | Volunteer Smartphone Patrol (VSP), Smart Panic Buttons |
2025 Crime Index Data — IND-27 Evidence
K4 (Indicator 27): Nisbah Ambang Indeks Jenayah Kali (X) Jumlah Penduduk di Kawasan PBT Bagi Tahun Penilaian
Data Source: Borang A.14 (KT4-P1) — MURNinets 2.0, Tahun Program 2026 (Tahun Penilaian: 2025)
Certifying Authority: DSP Balloo Al-Muniappan, Ketua Bahagian Siasatan Jenayah, Ibu Pejabat Polis Daerah Putrajaya (dated 14 April 2026)
PBT Coordinator: Jabatan Perancangan Bandar, Perbadanan Putrajaya
| KT4-P1 Indicator | Value |
|---|---|
| Bilangan Jenayah Indeks (2025) | 111 jenayah |
| Populasi PBT (2025) | 125,200 |
| KT4-P1 Rate (per 10,000 populasi) | 8.87 |
MS ISO 37122:2019 — Indicator 27 Formula:
[\text{IND-27} = \frac{A}{B} = \frac{111}{125{,}200} \times 10{,}000 = \mathbf{8.87 \text{ per 10,000 population}}]
Where:
- A = Bilangan Jenayah Indeks in Putrajaya, 2025: 111
- B = Total PBT population, 2025: 125,200
A rate of 8.87 per 10,000 means Putrajaya records fewer than 9 index crimes per 10,000 residents annually — demonstrating the effectiveness of the integrated safety ecosystem in sustaining a low-crime planned city environment.
Integrated Safety Ecosystem
The Smart Safety infrastructure underpinning the programme outcome:
CCTV Surveillance Network
Over 1,000 high-definition cameras are deployed across Putrajaya’s precincts, government corridors, pedestrian zones, parks, and key infrastructure — integrated with the Integrated Operation Centre (IOC) via fibre-optic Putranet backhaul. The system uses Bosch IVA (Intelligent Video Analytics) for automated anomaly detection, crowd analysis, and perimeter breach alerts.
Integrated Operation Centre (IOC) & Putrajaya Command Centre (PCC)
The IOC provides 24/7 multi-agency situational awareness with live CCTV feeds, panic button alerts, and incident dashboards. The PCC serves as the command nerve centre for coordinating response units from PDRM Putrajaya, JBPM (Fire & Rescue), PPj Enforcement, and Ambulans Malaysia — ensuring sub-5-minute emergency response deployment.
Volunteer Smartphone Patrol (VSP)
The VSP programme — a collaboration between PPj and PDRM Putrajaya District HQ — deploys trained community volunteers equipped with a dedicated PDRM-integrated mobile application for real-time incident reporting, geofenced patrol zone monitoring, and direct escalation to the PCC.
Smart Panic Button Network
A dual-layer panic button system with physical panic stations at strategic public locations and a mobile app-based panic trigger enables any resident or visitor to summon emergency response directly to the PCC within seconds.
Institutional Collaboration Framework
PPj–PDRM Data Agreement
The Programme Bandar Selamat operates under a formal data-sharing agreement between Perbadanan Putrajaya and Ibu Pejabat Polis Daerah Putrajaya — enabling annual crime index data to be submitted for MURNinets 2.0 reporting and IND-27 certification.
Data flows through a structured governance pathway:
- Polis Daerah Putrajaya — compiles annual crime index from station records
- Ketua Bahagian Siasatan Jenayah — certifies the crime count (Borang A.14, KT4-P1)
- PPj Town Planning Department — coordinates submission and coordinates MURNinets 2.0 reporting
- KPKT — receives and validates submission under the national sustainable city programme
