“I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to all of you for your lawful service in our combat against the pandemic, from the evacuation of our standard foreign and domestic tourists from March to May 2020, manning our borders and enforce lock down restrictions, aiding quarantine isolation facilities and securing our vaccination sites. Being at the frontline, you are committed to work 24/7.
The Department of Tourism is full of hope with our collaboration and support we could achieve a safer Western Visayas for us and to our visitors,” Director Mansinares added.
The celebration is an opportune time to recognize the community participation in crime prevention. It also serves as a vehicle in forging stronger police-community partnerships.
