RPSB1 led by its battalion commander, P/Sr. Superintendent Edgar Alan Okubo, turned over books and other reading materials that the troopers gathered from donors to the school principal, Denia Garcia, for the 123 pupils’ reference.

A group led by P01 Dan Almoite and Citizens Armed Forces Geographical Unit member Roger Migano gave free hair cut to the boys while another group under Police Officer 1 Mary Ann Cagampan taught kids how to sing and dance using Kindergarten songs.

In another room, PO1 Orlando Tambot III, gave a lecture on bullying and illegal drugs.

The school is located in a remote area about seven kilometers away from the national highway where sightings of New People’s Army activities were reported.

The 3rd Maneuver Company based in Dasol is situated in Barangay Hermosa here.

P/Sr. Inspector Darwin Guerrero, chief of Police Community Relations of RPSB1, said the project was launched this year to bring police service closer to the community.

Last August, Barangay Eguia this town was also a beneficiary of RPSB1’s Adopt-A-Library.

Okubo said the project seeks to develop community assistance and development activities in threatened barangays here “in order to bridge the gap of undelivered government services, and to strengthen police presence and influence in order to deny and counter terrorists/communist terrorists from gaining mass support.”

Garcia thanked RPSB1 for bringing their project to their school making the community closer to government. (Eva Visperas)
