NAPOLCOM Chief Commissioner Ralph Calinisan underscored that the PNP examinations serve as a critical safeguard of integrity and professionalism in the police service.
“Ang tungkulin ng NAPOLCOM ay tiyaking ang bawat pumapasok at umaangat sa hanay ng kapulisan ay dumaan sa patas, tapat, at makatarungang proseso,” Calinisan said. “Sa ganitong paraan natin naitataguyod ang isang pulisyang propesyonal, tapat sa bayan, at matatag sa integridad.”
He added that genuine police reform begins with discipline and accountability at the point of entry and promotion.
“Ang tiwala ng taumbayan ay nakasalalay sa kalidad ng mga pulis na ating pinipili at itinataguyod. Bilang Pulis ng Pulis, pananagutan ng NAPOLCOM na siguraduhing ang serbisyo-pulis ay nananatiling malinis, makatao, at karapat-dapat pagkatiwalaan,” he said.
The complete list of successful examinees is available on the NAPOLCOM website. Certificates of Eligibility for passers and Reports of Rating for non-passers will be sent by mail.
NAPOLCOM reaffirmed that these examinations remain a cornerstone of police reform, ensuring that recruitment and promotion within the PNP are guided by merit, competence, and professionalism, in pursuit of “isang pulisya na matatag sa prinsipyo, mahusay sa serbisyo, at makatao sa tungkulin.”
