Here are how police in Daegu are hoping to help prevent crime by foreign workers in Daegu:

Daegu Seobu Police have been cooperating with foreigners to jointly patrol areas where crimes by foreigners often occur.
On Wednesday, 16 members of Seo-gu Bisan 7-dong voluntary crime prevention group joined police patrols.
The area around Bukbu Bus Terminal where many foreigners hang out was their target area.
The crew included seven foreigners ― one Sri Lankan, one Chinese, three Pakistanis and two Bangladeshis.
“Bisan 7-dong around Bukbu Bus Terminal is one of the areas with a high density of foreigners. Crimes involving foreigners take place frequently,” inspector Kim Dong-sik said. [Korea Times]

And yes, that’s how sharia courts get set up in non-Muslim-majority countries… The “volunteers” help the police and start taking over some of their responsibilities… And “no one is the wiser” because crime rates appear to decrease and no one complains for fear of retaliation.
It’s Korea, so they are free to choose their own way. But Daegu civil authorities, not just the police, might want to inquire about how “law and order” happen in those waygook nations (as in how is it different than in Korea)…
