AGI-ORSITE 2009 for PRO-COR Culminated with a Fruitful Result

Camp Dangwa, Benguet: The Annual General Inspection – Operational Readiness and Security Inspection Test (AGI-ORSITE) 2009 covering the period of June 2008 to June 2009 was conducted simultaneously in PRO-Cordillera in its different Police Provincial Offices on June 29, 2009 to July 3, 2009 by team of inspectors from the PNP Internal Affairs Service and representatives from different Directorates at NHQ Camp Crame Quezon City led by the Team Leader Pcsupt IFOR Magbanua.

After a weeklong inspection of all Units within PRO-COR AOR, the AGI-ORSITE inspection team through the Assist Team Leader PSSUPT Eduardo Octaviano commented that “PROCOR is still the PRO to beat in terms of AGI requirements and have shown great enthusiasm in the execution of different ORSITE scenarios” during the AGI Exit Briefing held last Friday at the Log Cabin of Camp Dangwa. This was attended by all AGI-ORSITE team inspectors; Command Group and other Officers of PRO-COR with the Regional Director of NAPOLCOM Hon. Danilo S Pacunana as guest of honor and speaker. The NAPOLCOM Director also extend the help of his Office to address concerns of some police personnel who have not yet acquired their eligibilities as noted in the inspection.

In Abra PPO, their campaign against insurgency in line with the thrust of the PNP was given due recognition because of their accomplishments throughout the year by being instrumental in the restoration of stability in the Province with the active participation of the populace and the Local chief executives. Neutralization of Wanted Persons resulted to 59 persons arrested and the arrest of other high profile NPA leaders to include Jovencio Balweg Sr.

Despite the political peculiarity which has adversely affected the law enforcement efforts, Abra PPO still managed to provide a favorable atmosphere in the province to move forward and return to normalcy for the attainment of progress and development.

Lack of personnel noted during the inspection in Abra will soon be filled-up after the training of newly graduated PNCOs who are undergoing their SCOUT training in the said Province and return of Police Commissioned Officers (PCOs) who have undergone the mandatory Public Safety Officer’s Basic Course as part of their career development.

AGI-ORSITE team inspectors expressed their admiration and congratulated the operational readiness of police personnel in all Police Provincial Offices within PRO-COR; the ingenuity in the discharge of their duties and responsibilities as law enforcers despite the terrain and geographical location of their areas of responsibility (AOR); and their good police community relations to serve and protect the community.
