TAGUM CITY, August 7, 2015 - The attainment of genuine peace and
security in the City of Tagum is still a work in progress and it needs the
concerted effort of all the stakeholders of the city to make it possible.
This is what Tagum City Mayor Allan L. Rellon stressed in his
message before the people from different sectors who were gathered during the
Enhanced Genuine Peace and Security Forum II held last July 30, 2015 at the Molave
Hotel, Tagum City.
Mayor Rellon said that there are still things that need to be
done before genuine peace and security in the city is fully achieved,
stating, “genuine peace and security is that wala na
kining mga kriminalidad, mga butang nga makapahadlok or makapaluya nato, and sa
pag-achieve nato niini, kitang tanan magtinabangay.” (there is no more
criminality or things that would scare us and in attaining it we should
help one another)
The rationale of the forum which was presented by Acting City
Planning Officer Arturo Manigo includes the presentation of the problems which
hinder the growth and development of peace and security which the participants
to last year’s peace forum were able to identify and the solutions propounded
in relation to said problems, as well as the actualization or realization of
the solutions that were suggested and considered.
The forum is a venue for the stakeholders of the City of Tagum
to realistically assess the peace situation in Tagum City by recognizing the problems
that are continuously besetting the city and coming up with solutions that best
address these problems. It is also through the forum where the resources
required, the responsible units and success indicators are identified.
On the other hand, newly installed Chief of Tagum City Police
P/Supt. Lito E. Patay made a presentation of the accomplishments, gap analysis
and strategies and innovations of their office, including their support to the
Local Chief Executive in relation the their Patrol Plan 2013.
P/Supt. Patay also presented, as one of the strategies and
innovations of their office, the Patrol Plan wherein the speed of their mobile
vehicles patrolling the designated areas in the city are significantly
decreased to 15 kph to 20 kph to enable the spotting of criminals and
suspicious looking persons. He further stated that there has been a significant
decrease in the criminal incidences of ransacking, snatching, robbery and
shooting after last year’s holding of the first edition of the peace
forum. (Richi D. Gulle/CIO- Tagum)
