DIRECTORATE FOR OPERATIONS MISSION To assist the Chief, PNP in the exercise of command,control,

direction, coordination and supervision of all theactivities concerning operations, employment

anddeployment of the PNP. FUNCTIONS 1. Plans, directs, controls, coordinates andssupervises PNP

operations and integrates support activities; 2. Assesses, evaluates and prepares

mobilization,demobilization, assignment and/or locationemployment/deployment of units in

coordination with otherdirectorial Staffs; 3. Prepares, coordinates and issues operationalplan, orders

and directives in accordance with Chief,PNPs policies and guidelines; 4. Maintains active liaisoning with

the other OperatingUnits of the military and other law enforcement agencies; 5. Maintains close

supervision, direction, control andcoordination of operational activities of all operating unitsand

regional offices of the PNP; and 6. Performs such other duties as higher authoritiesmay direct.

LAW ENFORCER "Law enforcer" is one whose prime responsibility is toenforce the law and whose

constitutional duty is to preservepeace, to defend and protect the people. There are several law

enforcement officers appointed anddesignated by operation of law. Police officer is just one of

them.Thus, there is indeed a clear delineation of duties andresponsibilities, and definition of jurisdiction

in the application oftheir respective law enforcing authority. As distinguished from other law enforcers,a police officer isa general law enforcer who executes and enforces all existinggeneral, local, special and

penal laws other than those specificallyand exclusively assigned to other law enforcement agencies

ofthe government. HOW TO ENFORCE THE LAW: A law enforcer is presumed to know the law he has

sworn toenforce, One must not be allowed to exercise and perform thedelicate duty as a law enforcer

unless he knows how to enforceand execute the law, including its boundaries and limitationsotherwise,

abuses, anarchy and lawlessness shall prevail.

Law enforcers must: 1. Know the ability to learn how they are interpreted by thecourts; 2. Have the

ability to learn how they are interpreted by thecourts; 3. Know how to properly execute and enforce

such laws; 4. Know how and when to properly effect the arrest ofoffenders; 5. Have the technical andlegal know-how to protect anddefend the innocent from harassment, and prosecute offenderswho are

probably guilty of a felony or a crime. Unless the foregoing mandatory requirements areaccomplished

satisfactorily, a new graduate from the policeacademy and other law enforcement training centers

mustnot be allowed to join or be appointed as a regular memberof the Philippine National Police or any

law enforcementagency of the government. To do otherwise is by itself adeliberate violation of the

constitution, a disservice to thepeople, and at their useless and unjustifiable expense andprejudice.

CARDINAL RULES RESPECTING HUMAN RIGHTS (Sec 11, Art 11, 1987 Philippine Constitution) HUMAN

RIGHTS ARE THE GOD GIVEN RIGHTSINHERENT TO THE VERY EXISTENCE OF MAN. The right towear a

piece of cloth to shield himself from shivering coldor melting heat; a right to have a bowl of rice to fill

hisempty stomach for the day; the right to have a shelter tospend the night; the right of every working

man to assurehimself and his family a life worthy of human dignity; and,the right to live with honor,

dignity and respect of hisfellowmen living in a just and humane society under theblessing of democracy

Entrusted with the constitutional mandate to serveand protect the people, law enforcers should be the

veryfirst protectorate of human rights. Failing that task, thereis no Aristotelian reason for them to

navigate the legalcomplexity and technical intricacy in the enforcement oflaws. Without recognizing and

respecting the sanctity ofhuman rights as enshrined in the Constitution, they cannever induce public

respect or command obedience toexisting laws. THEY CAN NEVER EFFECTIVELY ENFORCETHE LAW BY

VIOLATING HUMAN RIGHTS!

SANDIGAN (ANTI-CRIMINALITY MASTERPLAN)I. INTRODUCTION A. PURPOSE AND SCOPE This Plan shall

serve as the Master Plan in which all plans andprograms of the PNP shall conform with and supplement.

It shall prescribe the grand strategy to be undertaken by PNPOffices and personnel on crime prevention,control and suppression, in thetotal fight against all forces of criminality. B. SITUATION The campaign

against crime is a continuing concern. It is a warthat the police can not win alone, and can not in any real

sense fight alone.Police can not change the root drivers of crime such as poverty,unemployment, poor

housing, moral education, freedom, civil liberties,ambitions, dysfunctional families and other ills of

socio-economicopportunities. Thus, all aspects of police work should be premised uponactive

community consent, trust and participation. In so doing, developing effective crime prevention, control

andsuppression strategies has presented the PNP with a fundamental dilemma.On one hand, crime will

always be committed and, indeed, a continuingmandate. From this perspective, the police is viewed

solely as a professionalcrime buster and often criticized if public expectations are not met. On theother

hand, the community needs to believe that the police is or can becomeeffective crime buster. Thus, thePNP has been compelled to rethink and redesign itsentire approach to this main task through clearer

prioritization of targetswith emphasis on prevention, control and suppression of crime and

moreresources moved into proactive policing. C. ASSUMPTION The primary concern of the PNP for the

next five years is curbingcriminality. D. MISSION The PNP shall implement a responsive and holistic anti-

crimestrategy to effective prevent, control and suppress the occurrences of crimesto insure safety in our

community. E. OBJECTIVES 1. To reduce index crime rate 2. To improve response time 3. To improve

crime solution efficiency 4. To increase conviction rate 5. To operationalize COPS through the Police

CommunityPrecincts, for the 24-hour community security coverage.

II. DEFINITION OF TERMS (Please see appendix E)III. EXECUTION A. CPNPS INTENT Let us intensify ourcampaign against crime. Let us create anatmosphere of peace, in close collaboration with the

community, localgovernment units, NGOs and international organizations, dedicating ourresources and

enhancing our capabilities and skills to address national andtransnational threats to peace and order.

The efforts of the Police Regional Offices (PROs), Police ProvincialOffices (PPOs)/City Offices and Police

Stations shall be to set-up andimplement a localized Anti-Crime Campaign Plan based on this plan. On

theother hand, the National Support Units shall create their efforts inaccounting and neutralizing

transnational and syndicated crime groups, andsupport the PROs in their localized Anti-Crime Campaign.

B. CONCEPT OF OPERATIONS 1. Strategic Concept a. Improve the Police Security Service Package 1)

Effective law enforcement and crimeprevention and suppression system. . Foremost among the means

of effective lawenforcement is the wise utilization of all PNP available assets on the ground.One testedand tried instrument is the Police Security Containment RingSystem (PSCRS), composed of the following

five (5) major components,deployment of which depends on their availability and the situation on

theground: a) The Innermost Containment Ring, whichis composed of barangay tanods, CVOs, NGOs,

radio groups,fire/disaster/calamity volunteer brigades that provide localized and neededpolice services

to the barangays. b) The Inner Containment Ring, composedof the foot patrol elements are in uniform

for police visibility while thedetective patrol component is in civilian attire for police presence. Even


5/61

ifthere are no uniformed police around the people will still think that a policeeye is watching them

because they will see police detectives in civiliancausing the arrest of crime perpetrators. c) The third

component is the MiddleContainment Ring, which is composed of bicycle or motorcycle-mountedpatrols

at control points who shall patrol the residential areas and make thetransport loading and unloading

areas as their standby points. This willprevent mugging of commuters specially during nighttime. d) The

Outer Containment Ring is composedof designated specialized units like the mobile patrols, which shall

be

deployed at chokepoints. Their task is to prevent the escape of fleeingcriminal and react to call for police

assistance. e) The fifth is the Outermost ContainmentRing, where the special police units (like the SWAT

or anti-terrorist units)and the mobile groups shall serve as security elements at areas designatedas

strong points, where they can immediately react to call for armed supportto beleaguered police

personnel on the ground. 2) Adoption by police offices/stations of the Crimeand Information

Management System, which will systematize the recording,retrieval and analysis of crime data. Another

means of effective law enforcement isthe adoption by police offices/stations of Crime and

InformationManagement System. In simple terms, the Regional, Provincial and City, andMunicipal PoliceOffices will indicate in their local maps the place and time acrime incident happened. The resulting

inputs will constitute the basis for thedeployment or redeployment of police resources to maximize

their use foranti crime efforts. 3) Deployment of dedicated Police Intelligenceand Investigation Teams

for criminal gang/syndicates, terrorists, kidnappers,bank robbers, carnappers and specific crime prone

areas. The deployment of dedicated intelligence,investigation and manhunt teams is another means of

organizationaleffectiveness. Teams for specific activities involving InternalSecurity/Terrorist Groups,

Kidnapping, Robbery, Hijacking and Carnappingare formed in all police units in varying scale depending

on the threatanalysis and availability of personnel. These teams shall conduct legaloffensives against

members of syndicated crime groups to force them out ofthe locality or, better still, to prevent them in

the commission of crimes. 4) Aggressive Anti-Illegal Drugs Campaign Illegal Drug is the countrysnumber 1 enemy.A high percentage of our populace is affected by this menace and majority ofthe

heinous crimes committed is drug- related. It is for this reason that wedo not only put to jail drug

pushers but also rehabilitate drug users. Thesupply and demand reduction strategies should be coupled

with aheightened drug education campaign. 5) Strengthening of the Programs for PublicSafety and

Internal Security The government considers the crimes such askillings; kidnappings, extortion and etc,

committed by the insurgent groupsas a criminal act not a political act. It is for this reason that

crimescommitted by them should be investigated and appropriate cases filed sothat justice is afforded

to the victims. People who feel that they are not safe in theirhouses, streets and place of work are

predisposed to crime. The policetherefore has to lend support. 6) Pursuing the objectives for Gender

AwarenessDevelopment

This concept will involve the strengthening ofGender and Development thrust of the PNP in

collaboration with governmentorganizations, NGOs and women organizations in the country, as

greatpercentage of crimes committed nowadays, involve women and children asvictims. b. Strengthen

linkages with NGOs, local andinternational law enforcement organizations, the AFP, andPresidential

Task Force and Centers as venues for interagency andinternational cooperation and support. These


6/61

organizations and agencies are venues foreffective law enforcement coordination and support. The

maintenance ofpeace and order is a multi-disciplinary responsibility and the active linkageswith these

agencies and offices will redound to the efforts to eliminatetransnational and national crimes in the

country, to include the criminalactivities of internal security threat groups and terrorists. In addition, this

linkage would turn very relevant andbeneficial during the conduct of special events, like, the holding of

honest,orderly and peaceful elections for both national and local officials of thegovernment. c. Enhance

the community participation thru theCommunity-Oriented Policing System (COPS). Through COPS, there

will be voluntary communitysupport and cooperation with law enforcement/crime prevention and

controlactivities, thus there will be enhanced police effectiveness and efficiencygiven the same police

resources. d. Operationalize the Integrated Area/Community Public Safety Plan (IA/CPSP) In order to

insure the success of linking up thecontribution of the community, the government and the police

inguaranteeing the safety and security of the communities, the existingIntegrated Area/Community

Public Safety Plan of provincial and municipalgovernment units shall complement this Anti-Crime

Strategy. Closecoordination with respective Peace and Order Councils (POCs), LawEnforcement

Coordinating Committees (LECCs), Regional DevelopmentCouncils (RDCs), Disaster Coordinating Councils

(DCCs), Drug Watch andStreetwatch organizations, shall be maintained. e. Promote the objectives of an

active CriminalJustice System Being in the frontline in the operationalization of theCriminal Justice

System, the police serves as an effective catalyst inpromoting the concepts of justice for crime victims

and of enhancingattainment of the objectives of the Anti-Crime Strategy. f. Devise an Effective Feedback

Mechanism The continued feedback from all recipients of publicsafety services received from the

citizens through the Project 117 of theDILG, the Ugnayans conducted by the PNP and other

governmentagencies, and other sources of reports, complaints, needs, or rejoinders,

shall be the basis for improving the delivery of police services to thecitizenry. This feedback mechanism

shall serve as the trigger to set off aseries of adjustments and if need be, a realignment of the

foregoingstrategies to attain the purpose of maintaining a peaceful and prosperouscommunity. 2.Operational Concept The NHQ-PNP, through its directorial staff, shall superviseand support the Police

Regional Offices in implementing the strategic agendaand operational concept of this anti-crime

strategy. The PNP leadership,through the NALECC, the NDCC and the NPOC, shall coordinate

andcooperate with other national government agencies in the realization of themission of this anti-

crime strategy. The Police Regional Offices, through the policeprovincial/city offices and municipal/city

police stations, shall implementtheir localized anti-crime plans based on this master plan. Their plans

shallbe focused towards the implementation of localized activities to attain: (1)reduction of crime rate;

(2) improvement of response time; (3)improvement of local crime solution efficiency; (4) increase in

convictionrate for cases filed in court; and (5) the operationalization of community-oriented policing

system (COPS) thru the Police Community Precincts, for the24-hour community security coverage. The

national support units, through their specializedoperating units and various regional offices, shall

concentrate their effortstowards supporting all the anti-crime efforts of the PROs, except in thepursuit

of specific anti-crime tasks assigned to them. Schematic Diagram of the SANDIGAN MASTERPLAN refer

SANDUGO (THE PNP ISO MASTER PLAN)I. INTRODUCTION The insurgency problem, whether of the

communist or the secessionisttype, has social, economic, political and security dimensions. The

securitypart, as manifested by armed guerilla activities, is the most visible sign orsymptom of theproblem. The security acts only because of the politicalorganization that provides the leadership and the

direction. On the otherhand, the dissatisfaction and grievances of the people resulting from thesocio-

economic and political conditions in the area provide the insurgencymovement the reason for its being.

Thus, insurgency may not be solved bypolice/military solution alone (although police/military action is

vital and animportant part), but by a package of government policies and programs thatcan effectively

and simultaneously address the socio-economic, the politicaland the military aspects of the situation.

Accordingly, the whole governmentmachinery and instrumentalities must strongly and coordinately be

made tobear on the problem. A. PURPOSE AND SCOPE This serves as the long-range and holistic master

plan of the PNP inwaging an internal security support operations nationwide. Premised on theestimate

of the national situation and other considerations, it prescribes thecounterinsurgency support strategy,operational concept, scheme ofimplementation, service support, and coordinating instructions in order

toaccomplish the PNPs internal security support mission. All subsequent and supplemental Programs of

Action, LOIs, andother related issuances to be prescribed and executed by PNP units andpersonnel at all

levels which would have a bearing on internal security, musttherefore conform with the intent/spirit

and strategic and operationalguidelines embodied herein. This is to ensure the continuity,

unity,consistency and synergy of all internal security efforts at all times. B. DEFINITION OF KEY TERMS

(See Annex 1) C. NATIONAL SITUATION AND CONSIDERATIONS: 1. General The Government, through the

AFP and the PNP, hadlaunched various campaigns and pacification drives in the past decades toresolve

the continuing communist insurgency threat. As a result, thecommunist insurgent movement

experienced a downtrend in its partybuilding, army building and alliance work. This downtrend wasattributedamong others to the vigorous implementation of the series of the PNPsSandugo COIN

campaign plans and the AFP Campaign Plan Lambat-Bitag. These developments, however, did not lead

to the downfallof the Communist Movement. The CPP/NPA, instead, staged a strategicwithdrawal to

avoid decisive defeat by the government forces.

Subsequently, the CPP/NPA launched a rectification campaign to regaincontrol of LCM lost areas and

restore its influence in the rural areas.Additionally, the CPP, having experienced a regression in the

Yearly sub-stages of the Strategic Defensive Stage focused its activities on ideological,political and

organizational (IPO) work to rebuild the party, its army andmass organizations. During the Philippine

Constabulary/Integrated NationalPolice (PC/INP) era, internal and external security were tasks relegatedtothe Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP). The PC/INP then, as one of thefour major services of the

AFP had played an indispensable role in counter-insurgency until its deactivation in 1991, with the

passage of RA 6975,which resulted in the birth of the PNP. RA 6975 further placed the PNP as thelead

agency in the maintenance of internal security although it took until1995, for the PNP to fully assume its

primary role in internal security.However, when RA 8551 was passed into law in 1998, internal security

wasonce again given to the aegis of the AFP. Moreover, Executive Order No.110 issued on June 15, 1999


11/61

mandated the PNP to support the AFP in ISOfor the suppression of insurgency and other serious threats

to nationalsecurity. The military and police counter-insurgencycampaigns and other complementing

efforts by concerned civil governmentagencies LGUs and NGOS, may be classified into three major

operations oractivities, namely: (1) Internal Security Operations (ISO) by the AFP and thePNP to provide

security to the people and the government; (2) NationalDevelopment operations by the civil

government agencies to address the rootcauses of insurgency; and (3) Peace Process by the Office of the

PresidentialAssistant on the Peace Process (OPAPP) to complement the overall governmenteffort to

attract rebels back to the mainstream of society, in the spirit ofequality, peace, reconciliation and

unification. Essentially, these three mutuallycomplementing efforts are the governments three-pronged

strategy inaddressing the countrys insurgency problem. In line with the governments three-pronged

strategy inaddressing the insurgency problem, the PNP and the AFP have expanded theirroles and

actively participated in the civil governments development activitiesthat strike at the root causes of

insurgency. As one recognized weakness of thisundertaking is the lack of coordination and unity of

efforts among themilitary/police and civil government agencies, thus the National Peace

andDevelopment Plan (NPDP) was formulated. Amidst these changes in the operationalenvironment,

coupled with the recent political events in our country, the PNPhas to formulate and adopt a

comprehensive plan that would define the generalguidelines/concepts of operations and tasks to be

observed and followed by allPNP units/offices in supporting the AFP in the suppression of insurgency

andother serious threats to national security in conjunction with the NPDP andExecutive Order No. 110.

2. Strategic Guidance a. The National Peace and Development Plan This Plan sets forth the governments

overall plan for addressinginsurgency. It recognizes insurgency as a multi-dimensional problem requiring

aholistic and collaborative response and involvement of all sectors of governmentand of the citizenry. It

prescribes the ClearHoldConsolidateDevelop(CHCD) operational methodology and envisions to

launch a concerted,

integrated and collaborative campaign to address insurgency and its root causesthrough the left hand and the right hand responses. The left handresponse involves the conduct of political and

socio-economic reforms toaddress the root causes of insurgency and win the hearts and minds of

thepeople, while the right hand response involves the conduct of offensiveoperations that directly

contribute to the decisive defeat of the insurgents andthe dismantling of their politico-military

infrastructures. These offensiveoperations include diplomatic, political, intelligence, psychological and

militaryoffensive. b. Strategy of "Total-Approach" The National Peace and Development Plan has

adopted the Strategyof "Total Approach". Its holistic approach to effectively address armed conflictsin

the country consists of a security component, a political component and asocio-economic component.

The security component directly addresses violentconflicts, the political component seeks to tap the full

cooperation of localgovernment units and civil society to promote good governance and local

peaceinitiatives, while the socio-economic component focuses on ways and means toeradicate/alleviate

poverty. c. AFP ISO Campaign Plan BALANGAI: This is theimplementation of the National Peace and

DevelopmentPlan and consistent with the National Strategy of Total Approach and theClear Hold

Consolidate and Develop Methodology prescribed in the nationalplan. It envisions the clearing of

barangays one after the other bysimultaneously and decisively defeating CPP/NPA armed groups,

dismantlingLCM politicomilitary infrastructures and more importantly Winning the Heartsand Minds


12/61

of the People. The SOT concept is applied in dismantling the politicomilitary structure of the enemy

and employs the TRIAD of intelligence,combat and psychological operations as separate weapons

system to decisivelydefeat its armed groups.II COUNTER - INSURGENCY STRATEGY A. C, PNPs INTENT I

intend to have all the PNP Offices and units consistently andvigorously perform our tasks as mandated

by RA 8551 and further providedin EO 110. The Police Regional Police Offices and other tasked PNP

Unitsshall be employed accordingly to help support the AFP neutralize the LCMnationwide. This way, the

armed components, the infrastructures, and thepolitical machinery of the CPP/NPA/NDF will be

dismantled by thegovernment. I likewise intend to have the organization help LocalGovernment Units

(LGUs) re-establish or strengthen government authorityand control over insurgency-affected barangays,

and have linkages withother security and development agencies and organizations to help attainthe

aims of the National Peace and Development Plan of the government. Inso doing the PNP would be able

to effectively implement and succeed in thiscampaign plan as the PNP will be greatly involved in

harnessing allgovernment resources in the fight against insurgency and its root causes. B. OBJECTIVES 1.

Broad Objective

The PNP, in strengthening its participation and involvement in thegovernments peace and developmentmachinery, and concurrent with itsstatutory functions and mandate through Executive Order 110, shall

support theAFP in ISO for the suppression of insurgency and other serious threats tonational security

and to perform its tasks in the National Peace andDevelopment Plan. 2. Specific Objectives a. To develop

the capability of field units to fullyoperationalize this ISO support plan for the government and the AFP

inparticular. b. To support the AFP in the isolation of the undergroundinfrastructure and front

organizations of the insurgents in the towns andcities from the general population c. To enhance

intelligence activities against threatgroups d. To enhance the conduct of legal offensive against

theinsurgents. e. To support the governments National Peace andDevelopment Plan to include the

Peace and Reconciliation plan. C. CONCEPT OF OPERATIONS: 1. Strategic Concept a. The PNP shall

basically support the AFPs ISOCampaign Plan Balangai through the conduct oflimited internalsecurityoperations, sustained law enforcement and PCR activities, intensiveinformation gathering and

the conduct of investigation and prosecution ofISO related cases. b. The PNP campaign plan shall also

follow the Clear-Hold-Support operational methodology as herein indicated in support to theintegration

efforts of the military and other civilian agencies of thegovernment as envisioned in the NPDP and the

strategy of Total Approach. e the conduct ofcombat, Intelligence and

Psychological operations as separate weaponssystems to directly lead to the destruction of the

insurgent armed groups.The end state of this phase is dismantled LCM politico-military infrastructurein

the affected barangays and the decisive defeat of the main enemy armedgroups in the targeted guerilla

fronts. The PNP will support the AFP who isprimarily responsible for the Clear Stage.

shall involve the utilization of theterritorial defense forces to limit the freedom of action and movement

of theCPP/NPA, limit its access to resources and reduce mass base support to theCPP/NPA/NDF. This

phase shall have the following end state. IntegratedArea/Community Public Safety Plan (IA/CPSP) is

organized and established, inorder to protect the people, defend communities and secure vital assets

andinstallations. The PNP will be primarily responsible for the Hold Stage in areaswhich are turned over

to the PNP or where there are no AFP units assigned.


13/61

However, other areas especially in those areas where AFP units are present orwhere AFP supervises

CAFGU then the IA/CPSP is responsible.

police support to consolidation and development activities ofother agencies of government. The PNP

within its capability shall play asupportive role in these activities, including but not limited to the

conduct ofmedical and dental civic action, adult literacy programs and providingsecurity in support and

in coordination with AFP to civil government agenciesin their delivery of basic services in far-flung and

strife-torn area.

contested barangays and develop thecapability of local officials to effectively govern their barangays.

This stagehas the following end-state; 1) Government authority and control in contestedareas

reestablished or strengthened, 2) Government services delivered, 3) Counter-organizations further

expanded andconsolidated, and 4) Mass support for the government is enhanced.

Stage has the following for itsend state: 1) Root causes of insurgency effectivelyaddressed, and 2)

Political and socio-economic reforms plannedat the beginning of the campaign are sustained. c. The

overlapping and interrelated phases of thismethodology may be conducted simultaneously or

sequentially depending onthe prevailing situation in the targeted area. The efforts of the PNP shallfocus

in supporting the AFP on the Clearing and Holding phases, and withinthe local unit capability they shall

provide appropriate support to localgovernment units and other concerned agencies in the

Consolidation andDevelopment Phase. d. The principle of integration of efforts shall be appliedto

accomplish an ISO-related mission. This principal thrust requires the PNP,military and the civil

government agencies to work cohesively, and to unifyefforts to ensure a focused, effective and holistic

approach in addressinginsurgency. The role of the police aside from supporting the AFP inneutralizing

the insurgent politico-military infrastructure is to help create aphysically and psychologically secured

environment conducive for socio-economic development. 2. Operational Concept a. The NHQ-PNP,

through its directorial staff, shallsupervise and support the Police Regional Offices in implementing

thestrategic agenda and operational concept of this counter-insurgencystrategy. The PNP leadership,

through the NALEC, the NDCC and the NPOC,

shall coordinate and cooperate with other national government agencies inthe realization of the intent

of this counter-insurgency strategy. b. The Police Regional Offices, through the policeprovincial/city

offices and municipal/city police stations, RMGs and PMGsshall implement their localized counter-

insurgency plans based on thismaster plan. Their plan shall be focused towards the implementation

oflocalized activities to attain: (1) development of the capabilities of fieldsunits to support the AFP in the

resolution of ISO problem; (2) isolation of theunderground infrastructure and front organizations of

insurgents in townsand cities from the general population; (3) enhancement of intelligenceactivities

against threat group; and (4) enhancement of legal offensiveagainst the insurgents. c. The Special Action

Force is designated as the reservemobile/strike unit of NHQ, PNP. It shall be deployed/committed to

supportthe police Regional offices as situation warrants and/or upon request. d. The PNP National

Support Units, through theirspecialized operating units and various regional offices, shall assist/support

thelocal police units in the conduct of ISO related activities in accordance with theirmandated mission

and functions. e. Role of PNP and AFP on Enemy Affected Barangaysparticularly in areas with guerilla

frontsInfluenced Infiltrated Threatened As shown in the above schematic diagram, the AFPtakes the

primary responsibility in responding to affected areas, particularlyin areas with very active and active


14/61

guerilla fronts. In these areas, the AFPwill seek to dismantle/neutralize the insurgent political and

armedcomponents by mobile battalions of a tasked unit applying the SpecialOperations Team (SOT)

concept and the TRIAD concept of Intelligence. Inbuilt - up areas not affected by insurgency, including

cities and urban center,the PNP takes the lead role. It shall continue its normal police functions,such as

the enhancement of law enforcement activities, maintenance ofpeace and order to ensure public safety

intensified intelligence, policecommunity relation activities and other related police operations. f. In

areas where the AFP due to its limited resources,cannot physically occupy or adequately secure an area,

and where PNP unitsare present or available, the PNP within its capability shall initially providesecurity

in the area until AFP reinforcements shall have arrived. However, inareas where there is preponderance

of AFP forces or where it is declared byMOA/policy that they are the OPR, the PNP shall, through the

conduct oflimited combat support operations assist the AFP mainly because the policepersonnel to be

committed on this aspect are the same personnel that areperforming law enforcement functions. On

the ground, the Regional Directors, PDsand Chiefs of Police are enjoined to enter into memorandum of

understanding

with their AFP counterparts purposely to delineate and define their respectiveresponsibilities/tasks andcommand relationship based on their capabilities,limitations and the prevailing threat situation and

SANGYAMAN (PNPs MASTERPLAN TO HELP PROTECT AND PRESERVE OUR ENVIRONMENT, CULTURAL

PROPERTIES AND NATURAL RESOURCES)I. INTRODUCTION A. PURPOSE AND SCOPE This master plan

prescribes the guidelines to be followedby tasked PNP Units/Offices in assisting lead government

agencies in theenforcement of laws over Philippine territorial waters, lakes, rivers,mountain ranges,

forest, to include laws and ordinances that have been setforth to preserve, protect and enhance our

environment and naturalresources, in close coordination with the Department of the Environment

andNatural Resources, Department of Agriculture, National Museum and othertasked government

agencies and non-government organizations. B. SITUATION The Philippines is one of the countries in the

world blessed withsignificantly rich natural resources. In fact, almost all kinds of minerals,metals,

precious stones, animal species, plants, and trees can be found inthis very unique archipelago. However,

Filipinos and foreigners alike have exploited theseresources, and even worse, to the extent of over

exploiting and destroyingit. The most affected are our marine, aquatic and forest resources.

Thecontinuing degradation of our remaining natural resources has reachedcritical proportion due to

illegal destructive methods for business or personalmotives. Further contributing to the deterioration of

our environment is theexacerbating pollution emanating from vehicles brought about by the rapidurban

growth and industrialization.The following are the five (5) immediate concerns that should be

addressedin order to insure protections of the environment: Forest Protection;Protection of Fisheries;

Marine Life, and Aquatic Resources; Ensuring Cleanand Safe Land, Air and Water; Preservation of

Endangered Species andOther Wild Life; and Protection of Cultural Properties (Annex B

FiveImmediate Concerns).II. DEFINITION OF TERMS (See Annex A)III. CPNPs INTENT It is the C,PNPs

intent for the PNP through its National Support Units(NSUs), Police Regional Offices (PROs), Police

Provincial Offices (PPOs), Cityand Police Stations to assist concerned government agencies in

protectingand conserving the countrys natural and man-made resources, including itscultural sites and

heritage. Coordination may be undertaken with non-government organizationsto further improve the

current status of the nations wildlife and other

OBJECTIVES: A. BROAD OBJECTIVES To protect, conserve and develop our environment and

naturalresources, in coordination with and in direct support of all concernedgovernment agencies. B.

SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES Protect Lives - People must learn to properly utilize and protect ourenvironment,

cultural properties and natural resources. It is unfortunate forour country to have experienced disasters

that claimed thousands of liveswhich can be attributed to peoples reckless and erroneous utilization of

ournatural resources. The disaster that had happened in Ormoc is a clearpicture of natures way of

retaliating to mans irresponsiveness. Enhance Public Safety - Public safety remains to be the top priority

of the PNP.Destruction of lives and property caused by continuous misuse, abuse, andmalpractices of

the people on our natural resources must be fully stopped inorder to protect these resources and

promote public safety. Hence, the PNP,being deputized to enforce environmental laws, should

relentlessly conductoperations that would effect the arrest and conviction of violators andpreempt the

same from ensuing. The PNP shall assist in the enforcement of environmental andcultural properties

laws in close coordination with tasked governmentagencies - ( See annex B - Summary of Pertinent

Provisions ofEnvironmental, Cultural and Natural Resources Protection Laws ) 4. Community

Participation in the protection,conservation and development of environment and natural resources.


23/61

Community participation is an indispensable element in theprotection, conservation and development

of natural resources. Therealization of the vision to live in a community with vast source of

naturalresources and an environment worthy of emulation will come about throughthe voluntary

for the protection of lives andproperties in a given locality. The IA/CPSP concept requires the

totalmobilization of all available resources and the simultaneous conduct ofcomplementary programs

that will involve the civilian, police and militarycomponents of society. The primary responsibility of the

PNP is to assist the DENR,National Museum, DA and other tasked government agencies in the conductof

anti-crime operations implementing appropriate environmental, culturaland natural resources

protection laws. 2) The employment of both territorial Units/offices andselected National Support Units

(NSUs) in the conduct of an all-out andsustained campaign to protect and preserve our environment,naturalheritage and natural resources should be executed in tandem with concernedgovernment

agencies. Selected NSUs with suitable/relevant capabilitiesshall be task-organized to track down crime

groups involved in illegalactivities that contribute to the degradation of the environment and

naturalresources. B. OPERATIONAL CONCEPTS The NHQ-PNP, through its directorial staff, shall
