2 POLICE STATIONS OPENED IN CEBU’S BIZ CENTERS

Some 94,000 persons work in the Cebu Business Park and Cebu IT Park, where these new substation­s are based

-

Ayala Land subsidiary Cebu Holdings Inc. (CHI), in cooperatio­n with the Cebu Business Park Associatio­n Inc. and Asiatown IT Park Associatio­n Inc., and the Philippine National Police (PNP) opened two new Mabolo police sub-stations last June 18.

CHI provided the area for the sub-stations located in Cebu IT Park and Cebu Business Park, while the estate associatio­ns funded the cost of constructi­on of the buildings.

The PNP, for its part, committed to the maintenanc­e of the facility as well as to provide police personnel to man the precinct 24/7.

The proximity of the sub-stations to the city’s leading business districts will allow police personnel to respond more quickly in the event of any incidents within and around these areas.

Cebu Business Park and Cebu IT Park host over 94,000 employees combined.

CHI president Aniceto V. Bisnar turned over the new police precincts to Police Regional Office (PRO) 7 Regional Director Debold Sinas and Cebu City Police Office (CCPO) Director Joel Doria.

“These police precincts will help maintain safety within the estates and its surroundin­g areas. Their proximity to major population areas will help authoritie­s respond faster in the event of any emergency situations,” said Bisnar.

CHI made the initiative to enhance peace and order within its growing communitie­s, which remain the preferred investment destinatio­ns south of Metro Manila.

“We hope that this will set as an example to other private sectors in the community,” said Bisnar.
