THE two-day qualifying examinations for the vacant positions of the non-uniform personnel (NUP) in Negros Occidental Police Provincial Office (Nocppo) and Bacolod City Police Office (BCPO) were held at the Kapanalig Hall, Camp Afredo M Montelibano Sr., Bacolod City over the weekend.
One hundred fifty-three NUP applicants who took the exams were vying for positions in the police stations under Nocppo, while seventy applicants were for BCPO. They were organized into five batches to ensure the strict observance of minimum health protocol on social distancing based on the size of the venue. Three batches were scheduled on May 22 while the other two batches on May 23.
Their facilitators were composed of four NUP who are members of the Human Resource Merit, Promotion and Selection Board (HRMPSB) for NUP of Police Regional Office-Western Visayas and one lead examiner from Iloilo City.
Police Colonel Rome Palgue, Nocppo provincial director, said the applicants can rest assured that only the best and the most qualified will be chosen for the position, especially that Philippine National Police (PNP) Chief Police General Guillermo Lorenzo Tolentino Eleazar stated in his inaugural speech, “Walang palakasan. Only the best for the PNP. Only the best for the Filipino People”. (PR)
