As the holiday season approaches, the Philippine National Police (PNP) is ramping up preparations to ensure public safety. PNP Public Information Office Chief Police BGen. Jean Fajardo announced that the agency will implement a ‘no leave policy’ for all police officers from December 15 to January 12, 2025.
“Security comes first,” Fajardo stated, emphasizing the importance of maintaining a strong police presence during the festive period. The decision comes in response to the anticipated surge in crowds at strategic locations across the country during Christmas.
Fajardo explained that the holiday season typically sees a significant increase in public activities, necessitating heightened security measures. The no leave policy aims to maximize the availability of police personnel to address any potential threats and ensure the safety of the public.
