00:00 PNP Chief General Benjamin Acorda ordered all of the regional directors to come to the case folder of the police who have cases against them,
00:14 like the NCRPO.
00:17 At the same time, Acorda brought the missing case folders.
00:21 Patrick De Azuz was surprised.
00:25 PNP Chief General Benjamin Acorda Jr. alerted the police of the missing case folders of the police who have administrative cases.
00:37 First, NCRPO Director Police Major General Jose Melencio Natatez Jr. stated that this is the reason why the police were not able to easily punish the accused.
00:51 Next, PNP Chief General ordered all police regions in the country to check if there is a similar incident and to conduct a review of their system in handling such documents.
01:05 It's alarming because if you see, part of our focus agenda is integrity enhancement and cleansing and imposing the right penalty.
01:19 I'm encouraging all other regions to review and check on their system or in their records if there are similar incidents.
01:27 And I commend, for the matter, I commend the efforts of NCRPO because discipline is very important.
01:35 He also gave advice to those who have experience and are involved in this kind of work.
01:41 Those record holders, I mean, whoever has a record of the documents, they should be punished.
01:49 The documents cannot be saved or the folders will be lost.
01:55 I have observed that also the same when I was in DRDA and I was a member of the Regional Appeal Board and there are instances like that and we are investigating.
02:07 Meanwhile, there are new items used by the Philippine National Police under their Capability Enhancement Program.
02:14 Among the new items that are worth Php 485 million are patrol jeeps, motorcycle, night vision monoculars, tactical vest, and capote.
02:27 According to the Accord, these are a big part in their duty.
02:32 I encourage all our operating units to really make use of our equipment.
02:38 You know, life cannot be replaced by anything.
02:42 It hurts me every time I give flowers or I offer flowers in honoring our fallen comrades.
02:54 I hope that statistics will not increase with this equipment that we have.
02:59 The PNP chief also added that new equipment is also needed to improve the maintenance of the country's orderliness and peace.
03:07 This is after the Philippines became the safest country in Southeast Asia based on a study by Washington-based Gallup Analytics.
03:16 The PNP also plans to procure 22,000 body-worn cameras that could be completed this year.
03:25 Patrick De Azuz for the nation.
