Deputy Director General Avelino Razon, Jr. expressed elation with the announcement of President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo Monday that he is the next chief of the Philippine National Police (PNP).

Razon, the incumbent PNP Deputy Chief for Administration, will take over the post on October 1st when Gen. Oscar Calderon reaches the mandatory retirement age of 56.

“I am happy and I thank so much President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo for trusting me,” Razon said.

“I will take this as a challenge for the PNP to be of better service to our countrymen,” he added.

Razon will have a little over a year to head the 120,000-police force since he will meet the mandatory retirement age of 56 in late September of 2008./DMS
