Col. Salvadora cites Bataan Force Multipliers, cites their role for promoting peace

For risking their lives and limbs in helping promote peace and order and public safety,
Bataan PNP directress Col. Marites A. Salvadora lauded Friday members of the Bataan Community Force Multipliers.

Community Force Multipliers are actually civilian citizens who are voluntarily helping the police in promoting an atmosphere of peace, despite the risk, amidst no compensation from the local government.

The recognition of said civilian group was in relation to the celebration of the 30th Police Community Relations Month with the theme: “Sa Bagong Pilipinas, Gusto ng Pulis Ligtas Ka."

Salvadora pointed out that said activity aims to further strengthen the collaboration between the PNP and its community partners, in line with the directives of PGEN NICOLAS D TORRE III, Chief PNP, and PBGEN PONCE ROGELIO I PEÑONES JR, Regional Director of PRO 3 empowering local volunteers with the knowledge and tools necessary to effectively assist in crime prevention, emergency response, and community development, fostering a safer, more resilient Bataan for all.

The General Assembly with the Community Force Multipliers on July 25, 2025, was held at the MDRRMO Building, Camino Road, Brgy. Sto. Domingo, Orion, Bataan.

The activity was graced by Col. Salvadora, Provincial Directress, and was facilitated by the Bataan Police Community Affairs and Development Unit headed by Lt. Col. Alexander Aurelio.

It was attended by Community Force Multipliers from all cities and municipalities of Bataan, said Col. Salvadora.

During the assembly, Major Roselyn Asparo, Chief, Provincial HRAO, served as guest lecturer for the Human Rights Stakeholder Forum with the topic “Initiative Intervention for the Protection of the Vulnerable.”

Meanwhile, Captain Shayne Roco, Chief Provincial Medical and Dental Unit, lectures the participants on life-saving skills, essential tools for community responders during emergency situations.

Ms. Zaila Joy Pamittan-Aggabo of the Blood Services, Philippine Red Cross, also shared her expertise.

In taking cognizance of their invaluable services, the activity concluded with the awarding of certificates of recognition to each Community Force Multiplier.

"This is in appreciation of their unwavering commitment and continued partnership in promoting peace, order, and public safety in the province," said Salvadora.
