SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
"The HKP (Hong Kong Police), 'Asia's Finest', is a battle-tested professional organisation with strong leadership, competent staff, and deep culture. It is also a continuously learning and reforming agency in pursuit of organisational excellence. Policing in Hong Kong: history and reform is the first and only book on the development of the Hong Kong Police from an inside out and bottom up perspective."--Back cover
