SAN FRANCISCO, Agusan del Sur — A total of 202 new police recruits of the Police Regional Office-13 (PRO-13) formally took their oath of office on Wednesday, marking the start of their journey as members of the Philippine National Police (PNP) under the 2026 Attrition and Regular Recruitment Program. PRO-13 director Brig. Gen. Rolindo Suguilon lauded the recruits for their commitment and emphasized the importance of their role in serving and protecting the public. These new officers are expected to undergo rigorous training and education to contribute to maintaining peace and order in their respective communities. The Philippines faces a complex security landscape, including the presence of insurgent groups in certain areas and ongoing maritime disputes in the South China Sea. Therefore, bolstering the police force with well-trained personnel is crucial for national stability and public safety. This recruitment drive is part of the PNP's ongoing efforts to develop young talent and compensate for attrition, ensuring the force remains adequately staffed to address various security challenges.
