In a strong statement of integrity, the Philippine National Police (PNP) reiterated its "zero-tolerance" stance on misconduct among its ranks. This declaration aligns with Vice President Sara Duterte's recent exhortation to the PNP Academy "Sinaglawin" Class of 2025, urging them not to betray their fellow citizens.

 

PNP Public Information Chief, Col. Randulf Tuaño, reinforced this message during a press briefing at Camp Crame, emphasizing that there will be no second chances for officers who err. "What our Chief PNP stressed is the zero tolerance for wrongdoing by PNP members," he remarked, urging officers to adhere strictly to the law and uphold what is right.

 

 

 

At the PNPA commencement exercises in Cavite, President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. urged graduates to uphold honor and righteousness, even without recognition, echoing Vice President Duterte’s call for integrity. "Choose what is honorable even without recognition, and stand by what is right even when no one is watching," he advised, encapsulating the ethos expected from the country's law enforcers.

 

This reaffirmation underscores the PNP's commitment to accountability and ethical conduct, aiming to foster public trust and uphold the standards expected of those responsible for ensuring public safety.
