From the Philippine News Agency (Sep 22): Police, Army sign MOA for interoperability in Bohol
The Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) and the Philippine National Police (PNP) signed a memorandum of agreement here in Camp Dagohoy on Friday for better interoperability.
The pact is for Regional Joint Peace and Security Coordinating Council undertakings and coordination for operations, civil military operations, intelligence, administration and investigation.
The alliance can be a huge help against the increasing threat of terrorism and in the war against illegal drugs.
Police Regional Office-7 Chief Superintendent Jose Mario Espino and Philippine Army 302nd Infantry Brigade commander Brigadier General Arnulfo Matanguihan led the signing witnessed by all local police chiefs in Bohol and commanders of the military under the 302nd Brigade.
At the same time, local business leaders in Bohol gave citations to both police and military for their action in neutralizing the Abu Sayyaf Group which entered the province.
Matanguihan received the citation for the military and Bohol Provincial Director Senior Supt. Felipe Natividad received the award for Bohol police.
Security forces have been cited for solid action against the Abu Sayyaf terror threat in the province back in April.
Interoperability is critical in keeping the peace and maintaining Bohol's status as insurgency-free. Bohol has been insurgency-free since 2010.
