POLICEMEN CROSS RIVER TO TEACH STUDENTS

/ 8 November 2021

TO ENSURE that the education of children in remote areas will continue, members of the Apayao Provincial Mobile Force Company boarded a boat and crossed a river to help learners.

The policemen visited children in the isolated villages of Cagandungan, Calayukay and Calabingan in the municipality of Luna.

In coordination with the Department of Education – Luna Division, the police officers taught students how to read and write as part of their “Mistra U, Pulis U” and “Sulat Kamay” programs.

Philippine National Police chief Guillermo Eleazar lauded the police officers for their gesture.

“Makakaasa ang mga kabataan na narito lamang ang kapulisan upang tulungan kayo sa oras ng inyong pangangailangan, lalo na sa inyong edukasyon. Kakampi ninyo kami at hindi kaaway,” Eleazar said.
