Following the order of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr., the Philippine National Police (PNP) conducted a wide-ranging series of Mandatory Career Courses and Specialized Trainings from August 26 to October 7, 2025. These programs reinforce the administration’s goal of a motivated, professional, and highly competent police force that can efficiently and effectively serve the Filipino people.

During this period, the PNP Directorate for Human Resource and Doctrine Development (DHRDD) successfully conducted 56 career courses nationwide, benefiting a total of 2,738 personnel. These included 183 participants in the Public Safety Officers Senior Executive Course (PSOSEC), Public Safety Officers Advance Course (PSOAC), and Public Safety Officers Basic Course (PSOBC), as well as 2,555 participants in various leadership programs such as the Public Safety Officers Candidate Course (PSOCC) and the Public Safety Senior and Junior Leadership Courses.

These training initiatives aim to strengthen the operational competence, leadership capability, and overall readiness of our police personnel in fulfilling their duties to serve and protect the public.

In addition to career courses, 354 specialized trainings were conducted across administrative, intelligence, investigation, operational, and police-community relations categories, engaging 16,539 participants.

All these initiatives fall under the PNP’s Focus Agenda on morale and welfare, highlighting the importance of cultivating a trained and well-equipped police organization.

Acting Chief PNP Police Lieutenant General Jose Melencio C. Nartatez Jr. emphasized, “Investing in the training and development of our personnel is not just an operational necessity, it is a commitment to the Filipino people. The strength of the PNP does not come from numbers alone, but from the quality, commitment, and character of our men and women in uniform.”

PNP Spokesperson Police Brigadier General Randulf T. Tuaño added, “Each training completed is an investment in public trust. By continuously enhancing our skills and professionalism, we ensure that every police response reflects excellence and every action earns the confidence of the community we serve.”

Through these programs, the PNP demonstrates its firm commitment to maintaining a professional, capable, and citizen-focused police force, fully aligned with the vision of the Bagong PNP in the Bagong Pilipinas.

PNP SEIZES OVER ₱15 MILLION WORTH OF ‘PAIHI’ FUEL AND ILLICIT CI******ES IN BATANGAS AND QUEZON

Under the firm direction of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. to intensify the campaign against smuggling and economic sabotage, the Philippine National Police (PNP) scored a major breakthrough with the seizure of ₱15.18 million worth of illegal petroleum products and counterfeit ci******es in separate operations in Batangas and Quezon provinces.

The operations also led to the arrest of four suspects, including a Chinese national, in what authorities describe as a strong warning to those engaged in economic crimes.

The President’s marching order—to tighten enforcement and protect the nation’s resources—continues to echo through the ranks of the PNP, as law enforcers go after criminal networks exploiting the country’s trade systems.

In Batangas, operatives from the Criminal Investigation and Detection Group (CIDG) swooped down on a gas station in Brgy Balagtas around 11:50 p.m., arresting three individuals identified as Ed, Sam, and Sid. The suspects were caught red-handed in the alleged illegal trading and distribution of petroleum products, locally called “paihi.”

Recovered from their possession were two fuel tankers loaded with 26,000 liters of diesel, 10,000 liters of unleaded, and 4,000 liters of premium fuel, all valued at ₱9.14 million.

Charges for Violation of Presidential Decree 1865 (Illegal Trading of Petroleum Products) are being readied against the suspects.

In Lucena City, Quezon, CIDG agents simultaneously conducted a buy-bust operation against Joseph, a Chinese national residing in Barangay Ibabang Dupay, for allegedly selling counterfeit and untaxed ci******es.

The raid on his warehouse along Barangay Mayao resulted in the recovery of 95 master cases of fake ci******es, with an estimated market value of ₱6.03 million.

Acting Chief PNP, Police Lieutenant General Jose Melencio C. Nartatez Jr. commended the CIDG teams for their precision and vigilance, emphasizing that the PNP’s anti-smuggling operations form part of the government’s broader effort to restore discipline and order across all sectors of society.

“This is not just a victory for law enforcement—it is a victory for every Filipino taxpayer. Guided by the vision of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr., the PNP stands firm in its duty to dismantle the machinery of smuggling and economic sabotage. We will continue to pursue those who exploit our economy for personal gain, because every peso lost to illegal trade is a peso stolen from our people," he said.

The suspects are now in the custody of CIDG RFU 4A and face multiple charges for violations of RA 8293 (Intellectual Property Code), RA 10643 (Graphic Health Warnings Law), RA 9211 (To***co Regulation Act of 2003), and RA 8424 (National Internal Revenue Code) in relation to RA 10175 (Cybercrime Prevention Act).

PNP Spokesperson PBGEN Randulf T. Tuaño highlighted that the operation is part of the PNP’s sustained campaign to secure economic stability under the Bagong Pilipinas agenda.
“The PNP is fully aligned with the President’s call for a disciplined and corruption-free nation. Each successful operation strengthens the public’s trust that the police are not just peacekeepers—but protectors of national integrity,” he said.

The Philippine National Police continues to strengthen its campaign against all forms of illegal trade, ensuring that justice is upheld and public welfare is protected. This effort is anchored on the PNP’s commitment to deliver “Serbisyong Mabilis, Tapat at Nararamdaman,” serving as a guiding principle toward building the Bagong PNP para sa Bagong Pilipinas.

BEYOND THE BADGE: ALBAY COP SHOWS COMPASSION TO SICK CHILD

By order of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. to strengthen community ties and uphold genuine public service under the administration’s vision of a “Bagong Pilipinas,” the Philippine National Police (PNP) continues to highlight acts of compassion that reflect the core values of its Focus Program.

In Albay, Police Master Sergeant Yumie R. Barante of the 2nd Provincial Mobile Force Company (PMFC), Albay Police Provincial Office, extended humanitarian assistance to a three-year-old child, who has been battling a large lump on his left hand.

On several occasions, PMSg Barante and his team facilitated the child’s transport to hospitals for medical check-ups and coordinated with barangay officials for his ongoing care. Their efforts ensured that the kid received proper medical attention, reflecting the PNP’s dedication not only to peace and order but also to the welfare of the communities they serve.

During a home visit last September 21, 2025, the team also provided the child with milk, vitamins, and a simple toy, bringing smiles to the young patient and his family.

“True policing is not only about enforcing the law, it’s about touching lives and restoring hope,” said Acting Chief PNP, Police Lieutenant General Jose Melencio C. Nartatez Jr. “This is the spirit of a reformed PNP, one that serves the people with both courage and compassion.”

Meanwhile, PNP Spokesperson, Police Brigadier General Randulf T. Tuaňo, emphasized that such stories of empathy mirror the continuing transformation within the organization.

“Every act of kindness by our personnel strengthens the bridge between the police and the people. These are not isolated efforts, they are living proof of our ongoing transformation toward a truly service-driven police organization,” PBGEN Tuaňo said.

The PNP reiterates its unwavering commitment to the directive of the President in building a trustworthy and compassionate police institution dedicated to the ideals of a Bagong PNP parasa Bagong Pilipinas.

Ayon kay Acting Chief PNP, Police Lieutenant General Jose Melencio C. Nartatez Jr.: "Ang mga operasyong ito ay patunay na ang ating kapulisan ay lubos na nakatuon sa mga direktiba ng Pangulo at sa ating PNP Focus Agenda. Sa pamamagitan ng EMPO, sinisiguro naming ang aming mga hakbang ay nakatuon para proteksyunan ang komunidad laban sa ilegal na gawain."

Sa pamamagitan ng EMPO, mabilis at epektibo tayong nakakakilos upang protektahan ang ating mga kababayan at masiguro na ang mga lehitimong negosyo ay makapagpatuloy nang walang pangamba sa ilegal na gawain."

Nanatiling determinado ang PNP sa pagpapatupad ng mga direktiba ni Pangulong Marcos, pagpapalakas ng kaligtasan ng komunidad, at pagpapatupad ng batas laban sa ilegal na kalakalan.

The Philippine National Police (PNP) categorically denies the circulating Facebook post falsely claiming that PLTGEN Jose Melencio C. Nartatez Jr., Acting Chief of the PNP, urged police, military, and other uniformed personnel to disobey lawful orders of the President of the Philippines. These statements are fabricated and malicious, intended to spread confusion and discredit our institution.

Marcos Jr., and other duly constituted authorities, while upholding the highest standards of integrity, discipline, and professionalism in all our operations. Our loyalty is to the Filipino people and to the rule of law.

Authorities are currently investigating the source of this disinformation, and the PNP will pursue appropriate legal action against those responsible for spreading falsehoods.

We call on the public to exercise vigilance, verify information through official PNP channels, and refrain from sharing unverified content that may mislead others or undermine public trust.

The PNP continues to serve the Filipino people with honor, dedication, and accountability, while standing firm against attempts to misinform and destabilize the credibility of our law enforcement institutions.
