“We are here to help you. So please, General, ‘wag po kayong mahihiya. Kung ano po ang maitutulong namin in our personal and official capacity para po lalong matingala kayo bilang mga ‘Tagaligtas’ sa buong bansa, please let us know and it will be a privilege to continue to help,” he also said, assuring PNP-SAF Director General Police Brigadier General Edgar Okubo of support.
The senator added that he is honored “for the opportunity to be able to advocate” for the PNP-SAF as he pushed for its additional funds in the national budget this year. Under the 2023 national budget, Cayetano supported the P170-million funding for key facilities and equipment of the PNP-SAF in Camp Bagong Diwa in Taguig City.
Among the projects approved in the budget are the construction of multipurpose buildings and site development for Phases 2 and 3 of the SAF Headquarters Building, amounting to P75 million each; multipurpose building construction worth P10 million; and repair of SAF’s V-150 armored vehicle which costs P10 million.
