I greatly appreciate your kind assistance. Here’s the good news – I’ve been reclassified into third class constable from fourth class, meaning I’m out of probation in advance due to my achievements, especially the great improvement in my oral English which they mentioned on my evaluation. I have to say this is a very exceptional reward which has greatly encouraged me to work even harder and keep on learning and training.
