Director General ALAN L. PURISIMA

Top official urged uni-formed personnel to set as good examples in fulfilling the mandate of serving and protecting the citizenry to foster public trust and community partnership. Director General PURI-SIMA has also cited the need to concentrate on individual job description

and deploy more investiga-tors in police stations. “ Let us improve the delivery of public safety services. Police visibility is not enough; instead, police presence shall be felt by the public.” he said during the command conference. Gen. Purisima has or-dered all commanders

regionwide to conduct ag-gressive operations against illicit logging operations and to account for loose

firearms that may sow violence in the upcoming mid-term elections. “Code-P: 2013 and Be-

yond”, consistent with the PNP’s long-term program PNP Patrol Plan 2030, stands for competence,

organizational develop-ment, discipline, excel-lence and professional-ism. (PSUPT MMG)

PNP Chief eyes total transformation in entire police force



The PNP has gained its momentum in resolving the police force’s organizational dysfunctions, in improving the quality of police services, and in strengthening law enforcement capabilities.

Ironically, some of our erring personnel destruct the very essence of our sublime calling as servants and protectors of the people. With this regard, top officials of this regional command would like to gather information as regards to your bad experiences with

our ill-bred comrades on the ground. Should you have information like being mistreated by any PNP personnel, please send us his/her complete name and unit assignment.

Our sincerest gratitude for your relentless cooperation.
