Azurin emphasized the PNP will continue to enhance the operational capability and efficiency of PNP-SAF in performing its mandate and functions.

He said the PNP elite unit enlivens its virtue to serve God, Country, and People with utmost excellence living up with the SAF motto “By Skill and Virtue, We Triumph.’

“We must be bolder, tougher, stronger and faster than the evil elements we are fighting against. We thus need men and women in the police force who will respond to the demands of the job and the expectations of the people we serve and protect,” Azurin said.
