The Philippine National
Police (PNP) will receive motorcycles from festival organizer Kalibo Sto. Nino
Ati-Atihan Foundation, Inc. (Kasafi).
Two brand new two-stroke Yamaha
motorcycles worth P130,000 will be distributed to Kalibo police station to
boost its patrol operations and police visibility and mobility.
The turn-over of symbolic
key will be held after the Monday flag raising ceremony of Kalibo municipal employees at
Kalibo Magsaysay Park on March 31.
Kasafi chairman Albert Menez
will grace the symbolic turn-over along with Kasafi volunteers.
“The motorcycle units would augment the patrol vehicles of the
Kalibo police to hasten police mobilization,” Menez said.
Funds for the donated
motorcycles came from Ati-Atihan festival income generated by Kasafi this year,
said Menez.
Kalibo mayor William
Lachica, Kalibo vice mayor Madeline Regalado, Kalibo police chief
Superintendent Aden Lagradante, Kalibo deputy chief of police Inspector Benny
Jones Mendoza and the Sangguniang Bayan members are expected to attend the
simple ceremony.
Kasafi, in its four years
of existence, has since provided the Kalibo police station with logistical support
to enhance the capability of the police force.
It has also committed to
complement the efforts of PNP and its force multipliers to effectively perform their
duties and to maintain peace and order.
