PRESIDENT MARCOS URGES 50 NEWLY PROMOTED STAR-RANKED PNP OFFICERS TO LEAD WITH INTEGRITY

Fifty newly promoted star-ranked officers of the Philippine National Police (PNP) took their oath of office this morning, December 17, 2025, in a ceremony administered by President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr.

Also in attendance were Executive Secretary Ralph Recto, Department of the Interior and Local Government Secretary Juanito Victor C. Remulla Jr., Acting Chief PNP Police Lieutenant General Jose Melencio C. Nartatez, and his wife, Mrs. Mary Rose O. Nartatez.

The oath-taking formally recognized six newly promoted Police Major Generals and 44 Police Brigadier Generals, marking a significant milestone in their careers and commitment to public service.

In his address, President Marcos emphasized that promotion to star rank is not merely recognition of past service, but a call to meet higher standards in leadership, accountability, and public trust. “Be firm, be fair, be decisive while remaining fully respectful to the rights and dignity of every single Filipino,” the President urged.

“Promotion is not merely a recognition of past performance, but rather a clearer and higher expectation of how you must lead from this point forward,” President Marcos added. He highlighted that higher rank entails broader authority and greater influence over police operations, personnel welfare, and the public’s confidence in the PNP.

The Chief Executive encouraged the newly promoted generals to continuously improve themselves personally, professionally, and institutionally. “Do not be complacent. This is the stage where leadership is measured by your judgment, restraint, and consistency in upholding the law,” he said.

President Marcos also reaffirmed the administration’s support for PNP reforms that enhance operational capability and morale, including the updated base pay and increased daily subsistence allowance to Php350. Recognizing the importance of police families’ welfare, he assured continued government support, noting their well-being is key to effective public service.

With the holiday season approaching, President Marcos reminded the PNP officers to maintain heightened vigilance and visible presence in public areas, transport hubs, and communities to ensure the safety of citizens and the peaceful celebration of the season.

“Tiyakin ninyo ang kaligtasan ng bawat mamamayan upang tunay nating maramdaman ang saya ng Kapaskuhan nang may kapanatagan at pagkakaisa, at may tunay na ligaya,” he said.

“Public service does not pause even in times of celebration. So, continue to serve with honor, lead with purpose, always act in the best interest of our great nation and of the Filipino people,” President Marcos concluded.

The ceremony underscored the PNP’s continuing dedication to professionalism, integrity, and committed service to the Filipino people, alongside their vision of “Bagong PNP para sa Bagong Pilipinas: Serbisyong Mabilis, Tapat at Nararamdaman.”

Acting Chief PNP PLTGEN Nartatez, who was present at the event, expressed his pride in the newly promoted officers, noting that their leadership will play a crucial role in advancing the PNP’s mission of ensuring public safety and upholding the rule of law.

DALAWANG LALAKI, ARESTADO SA CAMARINES NORTE; MGA MATATAAS NA KALIBRE NG BARIL, NASAMSAM NG PNP

Bilang pagtupad sa utos ni Pangulong Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. na paigtingin ang kampanya ng pamahalaan laban sa mga loose fi****ms at kriminalidad, nagsagawa ang Philippine National Police (PNP) ng operasyon sa Sta. Elena, Camarines Norte nitong Miyerkules ng umaga, Oktubre 8.

Sa operasyon, dalawang lalaki ang naaresto at nakumpiska ang ilang parte ng mga high-powered fi****ms. Pinangunahan ito ng PNP Highway Patrol Group (HPG) - Special Operations Division, katuwang ang PHPT Camarines Norte at Camarines Sur, Sta. Elena MPS, 2nd PMFC Camarines Norte PPO, PRO BAR, NCRPO, at Special Action Force (SAF).

Ayon sa ulat, pinahinto ng mga pulis ang isang puting Mitsubishi Strada. Sa isinagawang inspeksyon, nadiskubre ang isang tagong compartment sa ilalim ng sasakyan na naglalaman ng mga parte ng M16A1 rifle gaya ng upper receiver, lower receiver, at barrel; isang caliber 9mm pistol na walang serial number; isang magazine; at ilang front sights na pinaniniwalaang para sa M16 rifles.

Dinala ang mga nakumpiskang ebidensya at ang mga naarestong suspek sa PHPT Camarines Norte para sa dokumentasyon at pagsasampa ng kaso sa ilalim ng Republic Act 10591 o Comprehensive Fi****ms and Ammunition Regulation Act.

Pinuri ni Acting Chief PNP, Police Lieutenant General Jose Melencio C. Nartatez Jr., ang mga yunit na nagsagawa ng operasyon:

“Sa bawat iligal na baril na nakukumpiska natin, isang malaking kabawasan ito sa banta ng karahasan at kriminalidad. Ang tagumpay na ito ay bunga ng ating patuloy na pagbabantay at pagsunod sa direktiba ng Pangulo na tiyakin ang kapayapaan sa pamamagitan ng maagap at epektibong pagpapatupad ng batas.”

Dagdag pa ni PNP Spokesperson, Police Brigadier General Randulf T. Tuaño, bahagi ito ng PNP Focus Agenda sa ilalim ng Enhanced Managing Police Operations (EMPO):

“Sa pamamagitan ng EMPO, pinalalakas natin ang ating mga intelligence-driven operations at ang koordinasyon sa iba’t ibang rehiyon upang mabilis na matugunan ang mga banta, maging ito man ay illegal na droga, baril, terorismo, o cybercrime. Sa ganitong paraan natin pinatitibay ang seguridad at kapayapaan para sa bawat Pilipino.”

Tiniyak ng PNP ang patuloy na pagsunod sa direktiba ng Pangulo na tuluyang alisin ang mga iligal na baril at iba pang banta sa kapayapaan at kaayusan ng bansa, para sa isang mas ligtas at mas mapayapang Bagong Pilipinas.

PNP SEIZES HIGH-POWERED FI****MS IN CAMARINES NORTE; TWO MEN NABBED

All recovered evidence and the arrested persons were brought to PHPT Camarines Norte for proper documentation and filing of charges for violation of Republic Act 10591 or the Comprehensive Fi****ms and Ammunition Regulation Act.

Acting Chief PNP Police Lieutenant General Jose Melencio C. Nartatez Jr. praised the operating units for their coordination and efficiency, saying:
