Police, military retirees in Pangasinan hold thanksgiving rally

From the Philippine News Agency (Jan 19): Police, military retirees in Pangasinan hold thanksgiving rally

Hundreds of retired members of the police and military services in the province held on Tuesday a thanksgiving rally to thank Philippine senators for their support to them all these years.

The activity, which was conducted in front of the provincial capitol building here, was led by retired Col. Sonny Verzosa, president of the Pangasinan PNP Retirees Association,Inc.

Verzosa said the activity coincided with the nationwide thanksgiving rally by the AFP/PNP Retirees.

He said that the former police and military personnel thanked the senators especially Sen.Juan Ponce Enrile, who supported the retention of pension indexation in the proposed Salary Standardization Law of 2015.

Others who joined the peace and thanksgiving rally were retired members of the Bureau of Jail Management and Penology(BJMP), Bureau of Fire Protection(BFP), and the Philippine Coast Guard(PCG).

They said that this is unprecedented for pushing the indexation of retirees in the police, military and other uniformed personnel.

The group also thanked former Senator Panfilo Lacson for helping them and the PNP Retirees Association,Inc.(PRAI), Association of Generals and Flag Officers, Inc.(AGFO), and the Coalition of Uniformed Services Retirees.
