MANILA. The Philippine National Police (PNP) has pledged to advance its modernization initiatives and uphold impartiality throughout 2025, as part of its ongoing commitment to better serve the public.
PNP Chief Police General Rommel Francisco Marbil outlined key modernization efforts, including the deployment of body-worn cameras, the implementation of real-time crime mapping, and the strengthening of cybercrime prevention units. Marbil emphasized the importance of these technological innovations in enhancing the police force’s ability to respond effectively to modern-day challenges.
“We envision a modern police force for a modern Filipino society—responsive, professional, and attuned to the times,” Marbil stated in a recent press release. He further acknowledged that technology would play a pivotal role in the PNP’s efforts, noting the use of advanced analytics and artificial intelligence to track and prevent criminal activities.
As the Philippines prepares for three significant elections in 2025, including the May midterm polls, Marbil reiterated the PNP’s unwavering commitment to impartiality, ensuring that the organization remains free from political affiliations and undue influence.
“We are a police force that prioritizes the welfare of the people, untainted by political affiliations or influences,” Marbil assured the public.
In addition to technological advancements, Marbil called for enhanced collaboration between the PNP and the public, emphasizing that the success of modern policing lies in strong community partnerships.
“Let us move forward into this New Year with hope and determination. The PNP is here to serve, protect, and modernize for the benefit of every Filipino,” he concluded.
