#pnp hotline

The Philippine National Police (PNP) have recently issued a memo regarding its officers who are captured in social media violating PNP rules and regulations and traffic laws. PLDT-Smart and Globe Telecom has announced that they have a signed a memorandum of understanding with the Philippine National Police to operate "Text Bato" SMS hotline. The Text Bato hotline allows subscribers to report crime incidents and law enforcement concerns via SMS or "Itaga Mo Sa Bato" Android app. According to the PNP, the “Bato” hotline is centralized and connected to the provincial and regional police officers. Upon receiving a report, the PNP will be able to refer the report or complaint to the concerned police station. The PNP said Dela Rosa himself will monitor the reports and whether they are acted upon by the police personnel concerned. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Philippine National Police (PNP) have formally joined forces to shield the investing public from a rising wave of digital financial crimes and deceptive online schemes across Central Luzon. This partnership was recently cemented through a signing of a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) between the SEC Tarlac Extension Office (TAREO) and the PNP’s Regional Anti-Cybercrime Unit 3 (RACU 3).
