IBP-NegOr lauds
lifting of EO 464
BY JUANCHO GALLARDE
The Integrated Bar of the Philippines-Negros Oriental chapter is supporting all measures to seek the truth in the ongoing Senate probe, on the cancelled National Broadband Network deal between the Philippine government and ZTE of China.
President Samsodin Tahir of the IBP Negros Oriental chapter said their group will rally behind efforts for the truth to come out in the anomalous transaction, and punish the guilty ones, no matter what.
The group lauded President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo for lifting Executive Order 464 so that Cabinet officials will not be prevented from exposing the truth, before the Senate inquiry, it said.
| Sibulan to train tanods 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. |
