Neighborhood Observation is a local communities network with an awareness of crime occurring around the neighborhood and reporting suspicious crime activities to the police. Therefore, in monitoring the crime, the government has encouraged community involvement in the "Voluntary Patrol Scheme" (SRS) to curb crime. Although the involvement of the community in the SRS has helped the police many times, the crime rate in Malaysia has grown steadily over the years, leading to increased levels of security and peace. Based on that increase, does the question of whether community involvement, lack of knowledge or the role of local leadership in SRS cause or influence SRS's effectiveness in reducing neighborhood crime rates?.In this regard, in answering the questions and problems of this study, focussing on the influence factors of community involvement, knowledge and leadership with SRS effectiveness in reducing neighborhood crime rates should be researched.The method of this study is a mixed method. The data were collected through questionnaire (366 SRS members) and interviews (District Unity Officer). Data obtained in this study were then analyzed using SPSS18.0 computer package using two methods of statistical analysis namely descriptive (frequency, percentage, mean and standard deviation) and inference (pearson correlation, multiple regression, FA and SEM.The results showed that high levels of respondents' knowledge of SRS, involvement in SRS and leadership as well as involvement of authorities and RTs in SRS were effective in reducing crime rates. Based on regression analysis, FA and SEM found levels of knowledge of SRS, involvement in SRS, views on SRS leadership have a strong impact and influence on the effectiveness of SRS in reducing crime rates. This shows that the implementation of community policing in the SRS in Kedah has given positive results to the public, the private sector and the PDRM.Thus, the findings from this study have contributed to policy or policy in the area of community policing related to the surveillance and gathering of information and knowledge of new forms of cooperation between law enforcement and the community especially SRS in crime prevention activities.
