BTECH Partners with LGU, PNP, DILG for Barangay Peace and Order Planning

The PNP-Baliwag Chief Froilan R. Uy presented the peace and order situation of Baliwag, Bulacan and urges the barangay officials to be their partners in crime prevention and control. 

Baliwag Polytechnic College (BTECH) partnered with the Local Government Unit of Baliwag, Bulacan (LGU-Baliwag), the Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG), Philippine National Police - Baliwag (PNP-Baliwag) and the Liga ng mga Barangay to help facilitate the Peace and Order and Public Safety Planning (POPS Plan) of all barangays of Baliwag, Bulacan. The POPS planning was held last March 9 and 10, 2017 at the Conference Room, Municipal Hall, Baliwag, Bulacan. This activity forms part of the meaningful community extension services of BTECH.

BTECH President Atty. Robert John I. Donesa facilitated the Peace and Order and Public Safety Planning. The plans were simplified for the barangays to easily formulate and implement. 

Barangay POPS Plan is one of the required plans to be submitted to the DILG during the first one hundred days of assumption to office of elected officials. The Barangay POPS Plan identifies peace and order issues in the barangay, lays down the agreed solutions and calendars implementation. Indeed, when properly implemented, POPS Plan is one of the hallmarks of good governance.

Municipal Administrator Enrique M. Tagle presented the local strategic directions of the Municipality of Baliwag, Bulacan. 

All twenty seven (27) barangays of Baliwag, Bulacan participated in the POPS planning. Their outputs were to be submitted to their respective councils for possible revisions and approval.
