For me, it\u2019s all about interaction, assistance and that one-on-one with the officers because I\u2019m a people person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>READ:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.news24.com\/news24\/community-newspaper\/peoples-post\/read-the-latest-edition-of-the-peoples-post-here-20240528\" target=\"_blank\">Read the latest print edition of the People\u2019s Post here<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cSecondly, it was good to meet our neighbourhood watch, meeting the CPF chair Aslam Clarke and engaging with the community itself, doing patrols and, you know, just saying \u2018hi\u2019.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-parliament\">Parliament<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Her experience as a police officer includes four years in Parliament.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, strictly confidential, she was able to say: \u201cWorking at Parliament is totally different than working at a station. There, our priority is to guard the President, the Deputy President and all the ministers, which entail guarding their properties.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Originally from Blackheath, Koopman spent the past 30 years in different roles. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She began as a clerk at Nyanga Police Station.
