The National Capital Region Police Office (NCRPO) on Thursday downloaded more than 500 personnel to the five police districts in Metro Manila as part of Philippine National Police (PNP) chief Gen. Avelino Razon’s commitment to deploy 90 percent of the entire police force to the field.
Razon headed the send-off ceremony for the 510 policemen, which was held at the NCRPO headquarters in Taguig City. Present to accept the downloaded cops are the commanders of the Eastern Police District, Southern Police District, Northern Police District, Manila Police District and the Quezon City Police District (QCPD).
“The downloading today of these policemen realizes my directive to increase police visibility so we can answer the requirement of addressing street crimes,” Razon said in his speech.
Razon urged the deployed cops to perform their duty “to serve and protect the community,” saying they are the “representatives of the PNP before the citizenry.”
“You will be the Ms. and Mr. Policeman,” Razon said.
NCRPO chief Director Geary Barias described the 510 policemen as “strong, mentally awake and morally equipped.”
QCPD chief Sr. Supt. Magtanggol Gatdula said he intends to utilize the policemen assigned to him as highway patrol cops.
On his assumption as PNP chief last October 1, Razon vowed to implement a 90 to 10 ratio as regards deployment of cops and office assignment./DMS
