A training for auxiliary police and police aides on how to respond to crime alarm and other related  police matters is being proposed by Senior Insp. Errol Garchitorena, police chief of Sibulan, Negros Oriental.

 Majority of  the  police  aides  and  auxiliary police personnel  have trained only on rescue operation, he said.

Garchitorena said they will include in the training the tanods from  the  different  barangays  of  the   town, as they are considered as force  multiplier of enlisted policemen.

Part of  his program plan is to  strengthen  the  Barangay  Intelligence  Network that  was  originally  established   by  PNP  Provincial  Director, Senior  Supt. Melvin Buenafe, Garchitorena added.

The   best  implementers  of  peace  and  order  are  the  people  in  the  community, he also stressed.

Meanwhile, the Sibulan  police station has transferred  to its  new  location to  the  former Public Information  and  Employment  Services and  Municipal  Circuit Trial Court  building  beside  the Sibulan Park.

The new place is more visible  to  the  community  and  is  strategically  located  near  the  national highway  and  the  parish  church, Garchitorena said.

They also plan to rehabilitate the police station so that it will appear “friendly,” and with its image, the community will feel comfortable visiting  the  place. *MA
