The deployment of policemen in barangays with big population and identified as crime prone is part of the NCRPO's Revitalized Pulis sa Barangay program.The policemen will undergo six months immersion in the barangays where they would be deployed.
“It is a six-month immersion program where trained policemen will be deployed and live with the constituents of identified barangays in the National Capital Region to render community services, help residents avail government programs, and assist in providing other public services as may be deemed needed in the community,” said Okubo.
“The deployment of the 240 policemen from the five police districts and Regional Mobile Force Battalion of the NCRPO will increase in the coming days,” Okubo told the Manila Bulletin in an interview. He said the illegal drugs affectation, as well as barangays with special concerns such as presence of communist rebels, were also factored in during the selection process of the deployment.
“The R-PSB is a six months immersion program. You need to understand the functions of our partner national agencies to address the issues and concerns of the community to do community or government services leaving behind the usual peace and law enforcement functions,” said Okubo.
