What province you are comparing us sir?
I have seen the efforts of my fellow police officers and I know their sacrifices like leaving their families for work, extending hours at police station just to file case, patrolling your neighborhood when you're asleep and we can't accept that our beloved province is the worst in peace and order, haven of assassins, drug lords, criminals etc.etc. What happened at PNHS is an isolated case and the command condemns the evil acts of PO3 Domino Alipio and disown him. PO3 Alipio is not Pangasinan police and Pangasinan police is not PO3 Alipio!

As the Climate Change Campaign Ad says " NAGBABAGO na ang PANAHON, PANAHON na para MAGBAGO". I have changed! MANONG DID it!

(This is my personal view  and not the whole PPO. Thanks. I love Pangasinan!)
