- Jonathan Llanes

The Police Regional Office Cordillera’s Advisory Council will continue to be its main adviser to make inputs and recommenda­tions on how the police in the region can level-up its performanc­e through strategic plans and programs.

During the Regional Advisory Council Summit, former Baguio City Mayor Reinaldo Bautista Jr. said “being a father to them, there is no choice for me but to make sure that they are well. Just like my own kids, I will drive them to where I want them to be, being respected”.

“It is our task to police our police, and we have. Today and with everything, one will hear about the police, one and is not surprise to see that all is well at home. In PRO-COR, all is well,” Bautista added.

During the summit, Police Deputy Director General Ramon Apolinario congratula­ted PRO Cordillera for being one of the top performing regional offices nationwide in the institutio­nalization

of the performanc­e government system.

“This Police Regional Office have set so many standards in so far as the PNP P.A.T.R.O.L. Plan 2030 is concerned. To mention just a few, its best practice is the basic elearning which was adopted by the national headquarte­rs to fast track the cascading of the P.A.T.R.O.L. Plan and ensure that each and every individual personnel of the PNP is reached,” Apolinario said.

Apolinario also pointed out the national headquarte­rs adoption of the geographic informatio­n system base analysis created then by former PRO-COR Chief General Benjamin Magalong for crime mapping purposes which is a huge innovation for commanders of PNP units to feature crime trends in specific locations within the areas of responsibi­lity, by crafting effective strategies to address crime trends.

PRO-COR regional director Chief Supt. Elmo Francis Sarona have asked the retention of the former mayor to be its leading adviser for the men and women of the regional office to which, Bautista accepted.
