Virac
PNP is most
citizen-friendly
The
National Police Commission has adjudged the
Virac police station as the most
citizen-friendly in the province of Catanduanes.
The
award worth P10,000.00 given last month kicked
off a fruitful year for the police station
manned by Supt. Rande V. Rosero and his
personnel, which bagged all but one of the
awards during last week's celebration of the
10th Philippine National Police (PNP) Day at
Camp Francisco Camacho.
The
Virac police office was picked over the 10 other
stations in Catanduanes on the basis of its
excellent relationship with the community,
through the conduct of informal discussions,
support for community activities and
availability of policemen in case of need;
services rendered beyond the call of duty,
through the provision of counselling services to
troubled youth and providing solutions for key
police-community "friction" points;
involvement in community projects and
activities; and, concern for the environment by
maintaining health and sanitary facilities and
clean and green surroundings.
The
Selection and Awards Committee for the
provincial search was composed of Napolcom
acting provincial officer Adelaida A. Sarmiento
as chair; PNP deputy provincial director Supt.
Ramon Ranara; DILG provincial director Orlando
L. Mendoza; Virac PLEB member and Kag. Virgilio
A. Candelaria; and, Francia, Virac barangay
captain Nelly V. Arcilla.
The
national search, which will award P1-million to
the winning police station, was held in
celebration of the 5th Police-Community
Relations Month last January 2001.
