Captain Sherwin Galupar will occupy the post of Police Station 8 commander Captain Greeky Cayao, while Captain Genus David will occupy the post of Police Station 10 commander Captain Glenn MontaƱo.
Coronica said the newly assigned station commanders were given three months to deliver results, or face possible relieve from their post.

He also emphasized that excellence in service and the building of a strong service reputation is essential in strengthening public trust and confidence in the police force.
