Dela Rosa: Police are not gangster, criminals

By Antonio L. Colina IV of MindaNews

DAVAO City--“Police are not gangsters and not criminals,” said incoming Philippine National Police (PNP) chief Ronald dela Rosa as he allayed fears that his approach in dealing with drugs and criminality may violate human rights.

In an interview out-

side the “Malacañang of the South” within the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) 11 compound in Panacan, Dela Rosa told reporters that the authorities will follow proper police operational procedures so that his men will not violate human rights.

Duterte: Dead or alive, P3m bounty for drug lords mindanaodailynews@gmail.com

By Lilian C. Mellejor

DAVAO City--Presidentelect Rodrigo Duterte has announced he would reward PHP3 million to police and military officials who can get big-time illegal drug pushers, dead or alive.

“I am not saying you kill them but the order is dead or alive,” Duterte told reporters in a press conference at the Presidential Guest House,

also called the Malacañang of the South at the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) depot in Panacan here.

He said he has the money for the reward that came from people who donated funds for his campaign.

He said he has the unspent money ready for the drug pushers. “I don’t want to get (of the money) for too long. Hindi ‘yan kasali sa sinabi ni Trillanes (That

is not included in what (Sen. Antonio) Trillanes has said).”

Duterte said the amount of reward money would depend on how influential the drug trafficker is -- PHP1 million for supervisor and PHP50,000 for small-time drug peddlers.

This developed as Duterte vowed to cleanse the country of illegal drugs in three months as promised during the election

campaign.

Getting the country of illegal drugs is one of his campaign agenda – the other two are solving criminality and stopping corruption.

Duterte even plans to use the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) in the fight against illegal drugs.

Duterte however said the operation versus illegal drugs must be done within the bounds of the

law, emphasizing that law enforcers know when an operation becomes unlawful.

According to him, a police officer does not kill a man who surrenders, but shoots those who fight back.

“I don’t want to see a police dead,” he added.

Duterte also wants his incoming National Bureau of Investigation Director Dante Gierran to kill any of his agents involved in illegal drugs.

He will also ask Congress to amend the probation law to exempt drug cases.

He said many drug pushers who were able to avail of the probation law have jumped bail and continued with their illegal activities.

“Ganun lang ang paraan para mahinto ang droga (That’s the only way to stop drugs). Do not destroy our country, do not destroy our children because I will kill you,” Duterte said. (PNA)

Mitigating the impact of climate change on food production The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) warned that climate change might affect food production in the country.

PAGASA, said there has been an increase in global sea surface temperature of 0.85 degree Celsius since 1880, and is projected to rapidly increase in the coming years due to climate change.

We have already observed that dry and wet spells brought about by El Niño and La Niña phenomena greatly and directly affect agricultural production.

these?

Accordingly, the DA had to tap P900 million from its operational budget in order to implement some of its climate change mitigation programs.

Congress must see to it that the budget for the various climate change mitigation and adaptation programs of the government, particularly those aimed at ensuring food security would be included in the General Appropriations Act .

our country with an average of 19 weather disturbances yearly (data from Pag-Asa) especially during the last quarter of the 2016.

Already, the Department of Agriculture (DA) Field Operation Service told Congress that the Department need the amount of P3 billion for the implementation of its El Niño Action Plan in 2015. What has happened to that? The Department of Budget and Management (DBM) replied that it was not able to release the said amount apparently due to some changes in the budgeting process. Now, how can we implement the government’s mitigation plans with scenarios like

On Distant Shore Val G. Abelgas

“What are the details of federalism, how will it affect taxes? How will it affect the division of natural resources?” Recto asked, adding that lawmakers and policy makers should ponder these questions if federalism would be discussed.

But it’s not just the issue of taxation or division of natural resources that need to be discussed if a shift is to be made. Federalism is a complete stranger to Filipinos and jumping into it would not be as easy as 1-2-3 or as elementary as A-B-C. Proponents of federalism love to point to the United States and Malaysia as examples of highly successful federal countries. But they also forget to mention that these countries did not start as one nation. Writer Michael Henry Ll. Yusinco stressed that federal states such as the US, Malaysia, Australia and Germany all began as “a loose collection of disparate political entities that gradually, and with painful upheavals, transformed themselves into a unified nation-state through the process of federalization.”

He added: “It would essentially be the reverse in our case. Consequently, we face a much harder, more complicated, and possibly harsher version of federalization. It is thus disconcerting that purported advocates of federalism seem oblivious to the gravity of this sociopolitical reform.

They quickly harp on the promise of enhanced local autonomy without even considering the readiness of the local leadership to

assume the big responsibility of local governments under federalism, as if the fitness of the current crop for this form of government were already a given.”

We have had a brief look at having an autonomous state in the failed experiment called the Autonomous Region of Muslim Mindanao (ARRM) that only spawned a stronger, abusive political dynasty in the Ampatuan clan, an even chaotic governance, and an economy that insured the ARRM became the poorest region in the country.

As clearly demonstrated by the Maguindanao example, federalism will further strengthen political dynasties. There is no denying that established political clans have been in control of local politics for generations. With greater powers under a federal set-up, what will stop them from further solidifying their hold on Philippine politics? A regional, instead of national elections for senators, would put more of these political dynasties at the national helm by being elected to the Senate.

Yusinco also contends that the shift to federal form of government would not succeed with political dynasties still entrenched in our political system.

He pointed to a groundbreaking study by the Asian Institute of Management Policy Center in 2012 titled “An Empirical Analysis of Political Dynasties in the 15th Philippine Congress,” which showed that lower standards of living, lower human development, and higher levels of deprivation and inequality persist in the communities governed by political dynasties.

Mitigation programs should be focused on crop improvement through breeding approaches; Project SARAI or Smarter Approaches to Reinvigorate Agriculture as an Industry; and MODECERA or Monitoring and Detection of Ecosystems Changes for Enhancing Resilience and Adaptation in the Philippines.

Indeed, there is a need for legislative action to ensure that mechanisms are in place to mitigate the ill effects of climate change, especially on food production. This is a serious issue that should be addressed by the Duterte administration. How can the masses cooperate with the administration’s anti-crime campaign when there is no food on the table?

You and I cannot begin to measure up their world-class standard of golf !

Years ago I had to learn a new language. After 3 months of study and practice, I felt quite good about my progress. Compared to the tourists, I was a whiz and very fluent. But compared to the locals, I talked like a 5-year-old little boy.

In the same way, we may look at some really bad people and feel quite good about ourselves. Compared to them, we almost look like saints! But compared to God, how good do we look? Well, who doesn’t look like dirt compared to our perfect Creator! Even if we locked ourselves away from all temptation and prayed all day for the rest of our lives, we still could not come even close to being as pure and perfectly good as God is.

CCS STAKEHOLDER PARTNERSHIP, MAKING THINGS HAPPEN

By PAUL Y. BADON, PhD City Central School

May 30-June 4, 2016 marks another year of partnership of City Central School with its stakeholders in building the future of the CCS children. This partnership is more than just sponsorship. It is giving the members of the society an opportunity to participate in nation building. As a saying goes, “It takes a village to raise a child”.

By joining this nation-wide activity, the community will be able to live-out how Filipinos make things happen through bayanihan. Although Brigada Eskwela will culminate on June 4, 2016 at 1 o’clock in the afternoon, its closing ceremony will signify the hope of the school administration to keep the partnership through-out the school year. Hence, CCS welcomes volunteers and hope to build more partnerships to help realize the dream of the Filipino children.

This year, the school administration is very thankful of the joint effort of the following organizations and private individuals the school ready for the opening of classes on June 13, 2016:

GAP certification pushed Cagayan de Oro City -- “ To ensure food safety and high quality produce for the consuming public, there is a need for farmer-producers and food processors to be GAP certified,” underscored Juliet B. Araos, chief of the Regulatory Division of the Department of Agriculture – Regional Field Office 10 (DA-RFO 10) before a crowd of media practitioners during the recent conduct of a Media Interaction, held in this city.

Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) is a set of consolidated safety and quality standards for the production, harvesting and on-farm postharvest handling and storage of crops, which take into account the quality management principles from farm-

to-table continuum with emphasis on food safety, quality of the pro duce, workers’ health and safety and environment protection.

“Meanwhile, GAP certification is a certification program governed by Administrative Order 10 series of 2013 – Guidelines on the Certification of GAP for Crops. It is voluntary and not mandated by law,” explained by Christine A. Lumawag, Agriculturist II, Regulatory Division of DA-RFO 10, in her presentation.

Nonetheless, recognizing that it is not compulsory in nature, Araos added that since GAP’s main component is food safety, it is anchored on the Food Safety Act of 2013 or Republic Act 10611 that strengthens the

food safety regulatory system in the country to protect consumer health and facilitate market of local food and food products, and for other purposes.

“It is one of the mechanisms to solidify such law. And, since it is voluntary, we cannot simply penalize those farmers who are not GAP certified. It is for those interested farmers who value in marketing their agri-products with consumers’ safety in mind; thereby, voluntarily submitting themselves to undergo the process of GAP certification,” she said.

One of the members of the press corps raised on why the agency should make a distinction between GAP certified farms to those that are not, when in fact, it is the

DA that has taught farmers to adopt GAP in growing their crops.

“When one is into certification, it would be easy to sell one’s products as they speak for themselves. Importers are already looking for certification as they demand for safe and quality products, especially that they do not get to witness the processes involved in the growing of their crops,” Araos clarified.

She likewise elaborated that since validity of t he GAP certification is valid for one (1) year, this will also serve as a monitoring mechanism by the agency whether farmer-producers have diligently complied the set GAP standards in their respective farms.

Further probed on how marg ina lize d

farmers can keep up in having their farms a s G A P c e r t i f i e d, the regulatory chief responded and expressed her optimism that the certification process is doable.

“The agency is doing partnerships with other offices, including the Agricultural Training Institute, the DA’s training arm, to ensure that more marginalized farmers and other agricultural clienteles will understand the concept of GAP certification.

Should farmer-producers be interested to have their farms be GAP certified, the DA through the Regulatory Division will be with them in every step of the way in going over the certification process,” Araos assured.

Me anw h i l e, Lu mawag likewise re-

minded that individual farmers, partnership/joint ventures, co op erat ives, corporations, associations/organizations and demonstration farms of government, academic and/or research institutions can avail the certification.

She further encouraged applicants to signify their interest at the soonest time, as to date, GAP application and the administrative expenses that come along with it, is freeof-charge.

Currently, there are three (3) GAP certified farms in region 10, namely: Del Monte Philippines, Inc. (PhilPack and Outgrowership Program), both in Manolo Fortich, Bukidnon, and Sweet B e e/UFVC Far ms, Inc. in Impasug-ong, Bukidnon. # (JLOlson, DA-RFO 10) COMMUNITY

Community Development Studs Find Home in Kalahi-CIDSS

Butuan City -- After their immersion into Kapit-Bisig Laban sa Kahirapan – Comprehensive and Integrated Delivery of Social Services (Kalahi-CIDSS) communities in Caraga, Community Development (CD) students from the Mindanao State University (MSU) – Main Campus (Marawi City) are all smiles as they complete their 4-month long practicum which is considered the last part of their journey before completing their bachelor course.

Dr. Marian Myrtle G. Onod, MSU – Marawi CD Department Head was all praises as the pilot partnership between the MSU-Marawi CD Department and the Department of Social Welfare and Development Field Office Carag became successful.

“We chose Caraga as a learning ground for our students since we have been hearing good reviews about the Community-Driven Development program of DSWD, and that the region is among the best implementers of the program.

We have CD graduates who now work for Kalahi-CIDSS here in Caraga, and they would attest to the performance of the region. This is why we chose Caraga” Onod said.

During the conduct of

the Practicum Recognition held at the DSWD Caraga Conference Hall last May 16, 2016, Onod was thankful that CD has found a true family, a home to call their own through Kalahi-CIDSS, the National Community Driven Development Program (NCDDP) of the government.

“Before, schools offering CD courses were dependent on agencies with CD engagements.

Now, with Kalahi-CIDSS, Community Development has found a family we could call our own.

We now have a home which will house our students. Hopefully, more programs will utilizethe CDD approach”, she added.

Mita Chuchi G. Lim, DSWD Caraga Assistant Regional Director for Operations, lauded the success of the partnership and hoped that the practicum program would be regularized. “We are proud that we have been part of the growth of these students. Maybe in a few months we could have Kalahi-CIDSS workers coming from this group” Lim said.

Thirty (30) CD studentinterns have been strategically assigned in Kalahi-CIDSS implementing municipalities all over Caraga since January 20, 2016 where they have immersed in their areas for a

total of 1,000 hours. During their time in the area, they were able to be with the community as they implemented the program, assisting the Area Coordinating Teams in performing/conducting activities for the program. ###(MARKO DAVEY D. REYES/Social Marketing Unit/DSWD Field Office Caraga)

Guiding pupils to better social relationship among teachers and other pupils Division of Misamis Oriental

Claveria Central School Culminates Summer Reading Camp

By MARIENELLE P. TAGLE Claveria Central School Teacher

Claveria Central School conducted a twelve day Summer Reading Camp started last May 16 up to May 31, 2016. This is one of the programs of DepEd that address not only to the existing problems on reading deficiencies of the learners and to nurture their love of reading.

During the reading camp, story reading, storytelling, oral reading, problem solving and various games were introduced to

the pupils. Through these activities pupils were able to enhance their ability to read, speak, think, learn and cooperate.

As the summer reading camp ended not only knowl-

edge was developed to the pupils but confidence as well. Participating in different activities brought them happiness and enjoyment.

DepEd’s Summer Reading Camp is an effective program that gives productive summer to the pupils.

Shaping a vision of academic success for all pupils

By Jane O. Caracho, Head Teacher III Malanang Elementary School, District of Opol Diivsion of Misamis Oriental

Seeing and knowing that our pupils have been successful in their respective fields, is one but few of the fulfilling dreams and aspirations we teachers dreamt of for them. And in order for us teachers see their dreams turn into reality, we must now give and provide them the learning they deserve and which they could use for their future endeavours in life, whether be it on the academic or in the track of life.

This as portrayed that by providing our students the realm of academics they ought and deserve, they could land a good job in the

future, good job means stable finances and a fruitful life.

This in one way or another, by polishing them as early as now, we as teachers could prepare them for their years to come, specifically when it comes to the career they will land in the next years for their own betterment and development, further complementing the success of the next generations to come.

Eyeing the success of pupils, definitely starts from home and from school. In their younger years and foster years as pupils and as a child, they should be taught on life’s basics and fundamentals.

Thus, as they take their first step to lifelong learning, we must be their stairs, guiding stairs for them to achieve their success.

Thus, at this time, we should start to shape a vision of academic success for all our pupils. We should be patient in letting them learn, even if it could take us of letting them relearn and relearn, or probably even if it takes us forever as long as it could mean success and stability of their future.

In this, as teachers, we must instill in our minds and hearts that we have to shape a vision of academic success for our pupils as they may become a big thrust for their success in the future.

Indeed, good relations among teachers and pupils, including teachers is important as it may affect the learning capacity and stability of the pupils. That is why strengthening the guidance aspect among them is of much importance.

As the School Head is the key person of the school guidance services, even what the classroom teacher is able to do on his own varies with the school head’s personality, point of view, and knowledge of guidance.

This means, the school head and the teachers must work hand in hand on this matter.

Some teachers say “I could do more effective guidance if my school head must exemplify guidance in his day-by-day person-

nel relations with parents, teachers, and pupils. Teachers may expect the principal to understand the nature of guidance and to have a vision of what it may accomplish, to develop the guidance programme cooperatively with his staff, and to carry out the will of the group.

It is his responsibility to select new faculty members who have the guidance point of view, to educate and obtain from his Board and the public necessary financial resources, to provide necessary time and, to release the creative energies of every member of his staff.

The school head works with his staff members as individuals and also sits with various groups and committees as a listening

non-dominating member.

His personal contacts can be most effective. Most teachers appreciate having someone with whom they can discuss a problem at the time it is uppermost in their minds.

The school head serves as a sort of supply depot for ideas, time, materials, and special services. If some of the teachers have had no guidance courses in their teacher education, and others want to improve the guidance work they are now doing, the principal will provide in-service education.

With this, to effectively implement guidance among the pupils, the school head, the teachers, the pupils including the parents must set as good examples for pupils to follow and live up on it.

Being part of a townhouse community who are in relatively the same status and upbringing could mean that neighbors are more likely to know one another and be more interactive, cooperative and even helpful.

This works well for those who travel often or those who need to leave at home kids or seniors who may need some assistance or even just to occasionally watch over one’s home while everyone is away.

A condo unit in the city may be an option if only meant as a second home but one’s investment generally covers just but an airspace for living, not a direct ownreship of a piece of land.

More than the land where your townhouse stands, you still have more land space for your garage and a yard for a garden just enough especially for a busy person to keep.

These are just the basic benefits a family gets in opting for a new home at Montierra, a subdivision of Asian-themed townhouses for middle-class families on the hills of Cagayan de Oro City.

Montierra is amasterplanned community of 600 new homes with its own commercial hub that sits on a 7.5 hectare property enclosed by an 18-meter high perimeter fence with a grand 15-meter wide entrance.

With two-storey contemporary townhomes with carport, Montierra has since the April 8 sales kickoff been generating positive responses from the market.

“The string of successes in our recent projects has encouraged us to undertake Montierra, especially that it has been quite atime we had a project in Cagayan de Oro City,” quipped Richard Lim, Johndorf president and CEO. “We want to provide the market in Northern Mindanao with a better choice for living in a safegated livable community that value-driver homeowners aspire for. It is built for professionals and entrepreneurs who seek for a meaningful life, those who venture into challenges if only to achieve it, even crossing seas and enduring storms.”

Mi ch e l e B a c u ng an , Johndorf sales and marketing manager, said the project is positioned for startup families of emerging professionals and entrepreneurs.

Johndorf boasts of Montierra as the only middle class housing project in Mindanao with amenities and facilities usually built in higher-end subdivisions, a new trademark by the company in this market category.

Residents will enjoy the use of a grand clubhouse with a spacious swimming pool, landscaped parks and playgrounds, basketball court and jogging trail.

Each townhouse is designed to be spacious than usual at about 64 square mters in floor area and stands on 54 to 108 square mter subdivided lot, each with three bedrooms and two bathrooms.

“The concept, as our studies show, attracts businessmen and profesisonals, young entrepreneurs and some foreigners who seek for the right choice for a home to live in,” Bacungan said. “Montierra will now set the benchmark of what attainable living truly is with these well-planned and innovative amenities and facilities and after-sale and post move-in services.”

As Johndorf builds up the character of being Always There to custoemrs, it has organized a property management team that would respond to homeowners’ needs especially before the establishment of their association and concerns the organization could not address.

The project will appeal so well to the discrimnating taste of the market despite the competition with other developments and condominium residences.

to feel we’re still OK and good enough, we choose to compare ourselves to those really bad people.

But there is only one way that God can accept you and me so we can live in a right relationship with Him. God has to give us the gift of His own perfect goodness. That’s why God the Son became a human being to pay the penalty of death for all our wrongs and sins. Not His, since he has no wrongs to die for. Jesus wants to give you His perfect goodness free, so you can be good enough to become God’s child and enjoy His life with Him—both now and in heaven after you die.

But it’s up to you to ask Jesus for His free gift of forgiveness and new life. Just ask Him to forgive you for all your wrongs and living your own way. Then ask Him to take full charge of your life and start changing your character with His kind of goodness inside every day, for the rest of your life. Just Think a Minute…

who has been picked by Duterte to head the Department of Education, said in her article entitled “Financing Federalism,” said: “Students of public finance have been pointing out that the creation of an additional layer of government—namely the state—will inevitably lead to higher levels of expenditures. This is because the machinery of the states has to be maintained, along with that of the federal government and the local government units. Pressure for higher levels of expenditures will inevitably lead to pressure for increased levels of taxes.”

For example, each of the proposed 11 states would have its own supreme court, parliament, Cabinet departments, state police, etc. that would necessarily entail huge budgets.

A federal form of government will create additional layers of bureaucracy that will lead to even more red tape, corruption and confusion. Businessmen and investors will be the most adversely affected as they will have to contend with conflicting and confusing laws from various states/ regions. Can you imagine 11 states with their own agencies on commerce and industry, housing, health, transportation, education, etc. and the federal government having its own, too, all with their own sets of rules?

Instead of unifying the country, federalism could further divide the country.

Ilocanos have long considered themselves a people distinct from the Tagalogs, and so do the Visayans, the Muslims, the Bicolanos and other regional tribes or groups. Just when these groups are beginning to

blend as one, we now say they are groups distinct from one another.

If one state becomes more progressive and more powerful than the others, what will stop it from moving to secede from the union and become a truly independent entity?

With not much help from the central government, regions with very little natural resources and existing infrastructures are almost certain to lag behind, negating the primary reason proponents are pushing for federalism. Proponents say federalism would enable each state to grow on its own by using its own resources, taxation and leadership.

Under the present form of government, provinces are given proportional revenue allocations under the Internal Revenue Allotments (IRA). Metro Manila gets the biggest share not because the national government is based in Metro Manila, but because the region has the biggest contribution to the country’s gross domestic product (GDP), accounting for a more than 36-percent share.

These are just some of the problems that could confront a sudden shift to a federal form of government. I also agree with Yusinco that the political consciousness of Filipinos must first be elevated before a sudden shift to a federal form of government.

Duterte and the other proponents of federalism may be right that the shift could be the solution to the country’s many problems. But they could also be wrong.

It would be to the best interest of the country that the proposal be discussed more lengthily and more cautiously before we jump into it. It’s an issue that could make or break the country.

A little more caution and introspection wouldn’t hurt. (valabelgas@aol.com)

Cabinet... from page A2

Atty. Perfecto Yasay to Foreign of Affairs, Atty. Vitaliano Aguirre to Justice, Mark Villar to Public Works and Highways, Arthur Tugade to Transportation and Communication and Ronald Dela Rosa as chief of Philippine National Police.

Duterte has yet to name his secretaries of the Departments of Health, Environment and Natural Resources, Tourism, and Trade and Industry.

‘Non-commital’ When asked if he would give Vice President-elect Leni Robredo a cebinet post, he replied he is “noncommittal” because he does not want to hurt Sen. Ferdinand Marcos Jr., who came second to Robredo in the vice-presidential race.

“Si Leni, she should understand that she belongs to the opposite side. There is no compelling reason for her to be a member of the Cabinet,” he said.

But he added “we are still studying the script of the movie.”

Duterte’s running mate, Senator Alan Peter Cayetano, had repeatedly said Duterte would Robredo would a member of Duterte’s Cabinet.

He told reporters in Davao City on Saturday that the post Duterte would offer Robredo is “tailored to what we heard from her during the campaign that she would like to handle.”

In his campaign sortie in San Miguel, Bulacan in mid-April, Duterte, then already the Presidential race frontrunner, said in response to a query from the media if he would appoint his rivals to a Cabinet position, that he would

name Senator Grace Poe to head the Social Welfare or Tourism department and Robredo will be his “assistant President.”

Section 3, Article VII of the 1987 Constitution states that the Vice-President “may be appointed as a Member of the Cabinet.

Such appointment requires no confirmation.” (Antonio L. Colina IV /MindaNews)

Criminals... from page A1

“We assure the public that we, the police, will follow the police operational procedures. Hindi kami magpapa-disadvantage sa laban na ito. Dapat kriminal ang mamamatay,” he said.

He said that he will make sure that his policemen will observe due process against suspects in the conduct of police operations.

Dela Rosa, director of Davao City Police Office (DCPO) from 2012 to 2013, said there were no extrajudicial killings and no socalled death squad during his time.

He added that they employed proper police operations to combat criminals.

“There will be due process and we will make sure to observe it. Hindi kami mga gangster, hindi kami mga kriminal kaya alam namin ang police operational procedure,” Dela Rosa said.

On Duterte’s promise to address drugs and criminality within three to six months, he said that it will require them to employ “full force of the law” and the cooperation of the people to attain it.

“Gagawin namin yan pero we will see to it na we will apply the police operational procedure to our own advantage at hindi to the advantage of the criminals.

Siguraduhin natin yan kasi sunod ng sunod ka pero tatalunin ka ng kriminal,” Dela Rosa said.

He reiterated his warning to drug pushers and criminals that they will get PNP’s wrath if they don’t stop, as he emphasized that he will crack down on drug lords when his term as PNP chief begins with Duterte’s assumption as president by noon of June 30.

“Talagang makatikim sila kung anong dapat matikman nila,” Dela Rosa warned.

“Upakan lahat ng drug lord, bahala ka na mag-interpret nyan basta upakan. It can be physical, bahala na kayo.”

He also vowed to clean the PNP of police involved in drugs and criminality and replacing them with new ones. He will also implement a reshuffling in the agency.

Earlier, the presidentelect warned of massive reshuffling in the PNP after he accused police in Metro Manila of being remiss in their duties and failure to curb criminality and drugs.

“Reshuffle natin. We must make sure that once we assume, we hit the ground running. You cannot run if yung naka-pwesto, alam mo na non-performers, medyo kulang sa commitment sa kanilang trabaho. So siguraduhin natin na yung ilagay natin ay talagang bukod na magaling na official, mga palaban din, hidni natatakot lumaban kahit sinong kalabanin nila,” he said.
