Ordinary street officers should not be afraid that a large number of cases will reflect badly on their precinct. If they fail to report cases, not only will this not "prevent any adverse side effects," it may on the contrary lead to "countless side effects."
楊子敬也表示，基層員警不能怕因案件多而使轄區臉上無光，匿案不報不但不能「杜絕後患」，反而可能「後患無窮」。
