Camp Sgt Quintin M Merecido, Buhangin, Davao City โ Police Regional Office 11 (PRO 11) clarified that the Bajaj Maxima Cargo vehicle bearing the police logo and currently being used by the RPSB in Cateel, Davao Oriental, was not issued or procured by the Philippine National Police (PNP).
The vehicle was provided through an initiative of the Municipal Government of Cateel under Mayor Emilou C Nuรฑez and donated to the RPSB Cluster 4 to support its mobility, particularly in delivering basic services and implementing the teamโs Quick Impact Project in the community.
The initiative provides the RPSB team with additional mobility to reach residents and carry out activities closer to the community, particularly in areas where transportation is essential to the delivery of basic police services.
PRO 11 appreciates the support extended by the Municipal Government of Cateel, recognizing it as a concrete example of local government and police partnership in bringing services closer to the people. Such initiatives help complement the efforts of police personnel on the ground and strengthen community-based policing.
The initiative also reflects the Community Engagement and Collaboration and Good Governance priorities of PRO 11 Acting Regional Director PBGEN BENIGNO L GUZMAN, which emphasize working closely with local government units and other stakeholders in addressing the needs of communities.
Through sustained partnerships with LGUs and communities, PRO 11 continues to strengthen community-based police service and support efforts toward safer and more responsive communities, in line with the direction of Chief, PNP PGEN JOSE MELENCIO C NARTATEZ JR and his mantra, โBagong PNP para sa Bagong Pilipinas: Serbisyong Mabilis, Tapat at Nararamdaman.โ
