Zambales Police Provincial Office launched its revitalized KASIMBAYANAN program.
Police Provincial Director Police Colonel Fitz Macariola said KASIMBAYANAN, which stands for Kapulisan, Simbahan, and Pamayanan reaffirmed the collaboration among various sectors for sustaining peace and development in the community.
“Despite our differences, we public servants want to encourage especially the church and the entire community to unite for the continued growth not only of our country but also of our relationship with each other,” he said.
Macariola stressed that peace can only be attained through unity and it is the most fundamental asset to community building, to personal growth, and to the very survival of our planet.
“As law enforcers and advocates for peace, we are looking forward to a unified society specifically here in our beautiful and peaceful province. I believed that with you as our support system, we will never fail,” he added.
The launch was highlighted by the signing of Memorandum of Understanding between the police and key members of KASIMBAYANAN, recital of pledge of commitment, and ceremonial pinning of KASIMBAYANAN pin button.
Messages of support were also given by representatives of faith-based organizations and other stakeholders. (CLJD/RGP-PIA 3)
