Secretary EDUARDO M. AÑO spearheads the launching of the Philippine Public Safety Academy as the Guest of Honor and Speaker.

The Undersecretary for Public Safety NESTOR F QUINSAY, JR. attends the said event at Camp Vicente Lim, Calamba, Laguna.

Here’s an excerpt from Secretary Año’s speech:

“Being the pioneering batch of the PPSA, you will be the ones to set the stage on the traditions, behavior, culture, and unwritten codes by which the succeeding cadets will follow. Kaya naman mabigat ang papel at responsibilidad ninyo sa pagtatag ng mga sistema, kalakaran at kaugaliang maghuhulma ng mga katangian ng tapang, katapatan at paglilingkod sa mga susunod sa inyong mga yapak. I therefore challenge you to set the bar high and to create a culture of patriotism, honor and excellence within the Academy.

Trust that the Department of the Interior and Local Government is always willing and ready to offer our full support to the PPSA as we continue our aim of building more peaceful, safe and resilient Filipino communities.

Together, let us embody the tenets of courage, integrity and service as we embark on this new beginning for the Philippine Public Safety Academy and set sail on a journey to create a better horizon for the nation and our countrymen.”
