01:05Dalawa po, sa rail station po, magta talaga po tayo ng dalawang police po kasi may kasama na rin po silang gwardyo doon.

01:18For now, Abirin said they have not received any augmentation from other regions.
01:24He said they have not monitored any security threats for the long holiday break.
01:29How based po sa latest threat assessment po natin ay wala naman po tayo na re-receive na threat po sa security po dito sa NCR.
01:40But just the same, hindi po tayo nagpapakampante.
01:44Tuloy-tuloy po yung intelligence monitoring po natin in coordination po and in collaboration po sa other intelligence unit po
01:51ng Armed Forces of the Philippines and other law enforcement agencies.
01:55The NCRPO reminds the public to be cautious of criminals who take advantage of this season to victimize and exploit others.
02:04Sa mga kababayan po natin na lalabas po ng kanilang kabahayan para po mag-shopping or mag-enjoy po sa holiday season,
02:15paalala lang po natin na huwag na po tayong mag-suot ng mga mamahaling kagamitan or magdala ng mga mamahaling bagay.
02:24And sana po ay palagi po tayong alerto at mapagmatiag po sa ating kapaligiran.
