Camp Olivas, Pampanga—A total of 2,420 police officers were promoted on Tuesday to sustain the government campaign against illegal drugs and other crimes in the region.
Of those promoted, 203 were police superintendents and police inspectors while the rest were police officers 2, 3 and 4.
The law enforcers commissioned were mostly superintendents and police inspectors who graduated from the Philippine National Police Academy (PNPA) in different years, while those non-commissioned were undergraduates.
The newly promoted police officers will be distributed in the different provincial, cities and municipal police stations in the region.
Chief Supt. Aaron Aquino, regional director of PRO 3 who officiated the oath-taking ceremony, reminded the newly promoted officers that the promotion was not a reward for work well done but a recognition that every PNP personnel has the potential to do more.
