PNP statement on the passing of former Senator and DILG Secretary Alfredo S. Lim

The Philippine National Police joins the Filipino nation in mourning the untimely demise of a national leader, former Senator and DILG Secretary Alfredo S Lim.

We extend our deepest condolences to his family and offer our comforting thoughts and prayers in this time of bereavement.

General Lim passed on to the great beyond on the same day (August 8, 2020) that the PNP commemorates the establishment of the Police Service in the Philippines 119 years ago. He must be really destined to go this way in the name of the profession that he truly loved and cherished.

The PNP will always be grateful for the legacy of efficiency left by General Lim, that shall serve as our own standard of performance in the police service.

His undying words: “The law applies to all, otherwise, none at all,” reminds us that we live under a regime of law where the law is supreme, and nobody but nobody is above the law.

The PNP is honoured to pay him our last respects and accord him the final honors befitting a police veteran and a statesman.
