The Philippine National Police (PNP) has acquired new vehicles worth PHP64.5 million which will be used for administrative purposes.

PNP chief, Gen. Archie Gamboa led the blessing and turnover of the 50 new unmarked light transport vehicles in Camp Crame on Tuesday, ahead of his mandatory retirement from service on Wednesday.

Gamboa said these latest assets are part of the continuing effort of the PNP leadership and the national government to further enhance the police force’s modernization program.

“Actually, the units will be issued to the deputy directors and executive officers of the directorates here in Camp Crame. That’s around 24 or kung kasama ang (if you include the) DIPO (Directorate for Integrated Police Operations), that’s around 30 and I think this is the first time that deputy directors and executive officers who are generals will have their own PNP issued vehicle,” Gamboa told reporters.

PNP Director for Comptrollership, Maj. Gen. Marni Marcos, who is also the chairman of the National Headquarters-Bids and Awards Committee, presented to Gamboa the new vehicles acquired through funds sourced from the Capability Enhancement Program (CEP) for this year.

Marcos said the new mobility assets will be distributed to the Command Group, D-Staff, National Support Units, Office of the Secretary of Interior and Local Government, PNP Peace Process and Development Center, Philippine National Police Academy, and Philippine National Police Training Institute to boost its administrative capabilities.

Aside from Gamboa, members of the Command Group and Acting Director for Logistics, Brig. Gen. Angelito Casimiro were also present during the ceremony. (PNA)
