TOL lauds Valenzuela, PNP collaboration for peace and order
REELECTIONIST Senator Francis ‘TOL’ Tolentino lauded the Valenzuela City government for providing support that the Philippine National Police (PNP) needs to make the city a safer community.
Tolentino joined the turnover ceremonies of 25 patrol cars and 40 motorcycles from the local government to the Valenzuela police force yesterday morning.
“The transfer of resources from the LGU to the PNP is a testament to the collaboration between the local and national government to achieve peace and order,” the senator said in a speech during the ceremonies led by Mayor Wes Gatchalian, city and police officials.
Tolentino then urged the police officers: “Take care of the resources, equipment, and the trust given to you by Mayor Gatchalian and the people of Valenzuela.”
He also emphasized the importance of making the community safe for residents and businesses to encourage more investments and boost the domestic economy.
“Emphasizing peace and order is a symbol of a responsible and forward-looking local government,” he concluded.
