Christine Joy A Capalar’s advice on people who wanted to enter the PNP organization

PBGEN ALFRED SOTTO CORPUS, RD, PRO 12 in his message lauded the newly installed patrolmen and patrolwomen. He also advised them to abide and stick with the rules and regulations of the PNP and to never sully their uniform but instead prove that PRO 12 personnel are more than worthy for the PNP Badge.

“You will now be a full pledged patrolman and patrolwoman wearing your rank and badge, so you must give prestige to it, hindi kayo patrolman o patrolwoman LANG kundi patrolman and patrolwoman NA kayo.

You surpassed the challenge of becoming a full pledged police officer, the next challenge is how to make people see that we are greater and beyond our badge. Thus, you should not limit yourselves from what you have now always think outside the box, explore and innovate and be the best police officer the organization will be proud of.” said RD CORPUS.
