The Philippine National Police will rally behind the leadership of Police Lieutenant General Camilo Pancratius P Cascolan who takes command of the 209,000-strong PNP as Officer-in-Charge upon the retirement of PNP Chief, Police General Archie Francisco F Gamboa tomorrow September 2.
The PNP Officer Corps and rank-and-file gladly welcome his designation as PNP-OIC to ensure continuity of command in the supervision of all administrative and operational execution of the PNP mission as the weight of responsibility of the PNP increases due to the pandemic and the threat of terrorism.
Refueling our energies and strengths in this time of health crisis is what we need in order to provide the best public service to our people.
The momentum has been established for the next leader to push steadily forward towards a more productive and effective police service, and with the capabilities and expertise of General Cascolan, the PNP will surely continue to excel in preserving peace and order and security, especially in critical issues of illegal drugs, crime, terrorism and corruption.
PLTGEN Cascolan brings with him the occupational specialty in command and control, honed by vast experience in field operations and strategic management.
