POLICE AND MILITARY officials again thanked Mayor Beng Climaco for 8 brand new prowl cars the local government recently handed over as part of its support to the security sector.
Climaco turned over 7 units of Toyota Rush to the Zamboanga City Police Office and a Toyota Hilux pickup truck to the Philippine Marines here. The vehicles, she said, form part of her continuing commitment to security forces under her flagship program on Security, Health and Education (SHE).
Apart from the donation of vehicles, the local government also shells out about P22 million for the local police force for its fuel, vehicle maintenance, among other necessities. Colonel Thomas Joseph Martir, the city police chief, received the prowl cars from Climaco during a simple ceremony attended by policemen who praised the mayor for her “relentless support” to the Zamboanga City Police Office.
The patrol cars were assigned to Police Station 11 under Major Elmer Solon; Police Station 7 under Captain Jupertson Pelovello; Police Station 6 under Major Mark Anthony Karanain and Police Station 5 under Major Salvador Galvez, and also the Police Traffic Management Group under Major Raymond Samson, Zamboanga City Police Office Headquarters and Emergency 911 through Alan Aizon.
Climaco also handed over the pickup truck to General Alvin Parreño, the Philippine Marine Corps Commandant; and Task Force Zamboanga Chief, Army Colonel Leonel Nicolas and Marine Battalion Landing Team 11 Commandant, Lieutenant Colonel Michael Ariel de los Reyes.
Parreño presented Climaco with a token of gratitude and thanked her for the donation. “Thank you for your love and support to the Marines. God bless you more!” reads an inscription on the token.
Climaco said the Task Force Zamboanga is also set to receive its share of the Toyota Rush vehicles soon. “The City Government will never get tired of supporting and assisting the police and the entire security sector in Zamboanga and all these for the dedication of the soldiers and policemen in securing our city and our people,” she said.
