On January 5, 2011, the first in the past 12 years case of FMD occurred in Bulgaria. In any future outbreaks, we would take a much more precautionary approach and announce a ban as soon as a case of FMD is confirmed. FMD is a highly contagious disease affecting cattle, buffaloes, sheep, goats, swine and other cloven-hoofed animals.
Every officer should have the highest integrity and character. However, when we asked police officers what they saw as the most important qualities to performing work as law enforcement officials, they thoughtfully offered these additional traits.
One of the most important skills of a police officer is the ability to communicate in a range of situations with a diverse mix of people. You already have skills in communication that you will be required to use in your role. However you will find yourself in situations that will demand advanced communication skills. Effective policing is about bringing volatile situations to order and even taking people into custody if that is needed. Not everyone stops what they are doing when they are told to.
