Basbas ready for Undas

THE Dagupan City Police Station (DCPS) is all set to ensure peace and order and smooth traffic flow during the observance of All Saints Day on Tuesday, Nov. 1.

Police Supt. Edgar O. Basbas, chief of police, presented the security plan dubbed Oplan Kaluluwa 2005 during the department heads weekly meeting early last week.

Basbas stressed that the DCPS will strictly implement the ban on gambling and bringing of alcoholic drinks inside cemeteries. A similar strict monitoring and ban will be imposed against the carrying of firearms and other deadly weapons in cemetery areas.

He said maximum police visibility and presence will be the order of the day thru the establishment of police assistance centers and motorists assistance centers, deployment of mobile patrols and the regular police beat system with two cops pounding the beat on the sidewalks in the business centers at any given time.

The public assistance centers will be set up in the six cemeteries of the city: Eternal Gardens, Roman Catholic Cemetery, Independent Cemetery, Chinese cemetery, Bonuan cemetery and Mt. Zion cemetery.

Motorists can seek help at the Police Community Precincts (PCPs) in A. B. Fernandez Avenue, Mayombo, Arellano, Bolosan, Lucao, Bonuan and Malued.

In coordination with the Public Order and Safety Office (POSO), Basbas said a traffic rerouting scheme will be implemented for the convenience of motorists and the riding public.

Among volunteer groups that will augment the forces of the DCPS are Deltacom, Spectrum , Police Hotline Aksyon ng Bayan, Inc. (PHABI), BRADI, Riders Association of Dagupan Inc. (RADI), Department of Interior and Local Government Action Kabayan and Guardian. (Sunshine D. Robles)
