THE POLICE Regional Office XI demonstrated its commitment to personnel welfare by fulfilling the “wishlists” of police officers assigned to the Manay Municipal Police Station in Davao Oriental, many of whom were affected by a recent earthquake.
During a simple turnover ceremony held at the Davao Oriental Police Provincial Office compound in Mati City on Oct. 20, 2025, PRO XI regional director, PBGen. Joseph R. Arguelles, led the distribution of various essential items.
The provisions included items specifically requested by the station personnel, such as:
Laptops and personal computers, Refrigerators and home appliances, kitchen wares, Financial assistance and other essential resources.
Arguelles emphasized that the initiative is a “tangible reflection” of the PRO XI’s commitment to morale and welfare, particularly for those serving in remote areas.
“Through simple yet meaningful acts such as this, we reaffirm our dedication to boosting the morale of our personnel, especially those assigned in far-flung areas who continuously serve with loyalty and integrity,” Arguelles stated.
The successful delivery of the aid package was a result of a collective effort and sponsorship from the PRO XI Command Group, regional staff, chief of the Regional Finance Unit XI, and the regional accountant.
The initiative also received support from the private sector, with CitiHardware providing a Certificate of Donation, which the police organization highlighted as a demonstration of strong community partnership and social responsibility.
The regional director noted that the program aligns with the directives of PNP acting chief PLTGen. Jose Melencio C. Nartatez, Jr., and the PNP Focused Agenda on morale and welfare, which aims to ensure personnel are equipped with the necessary tools, resources, and emotional support.
Arguelles concluded by thanking all donors and sponsors, underscoring that the success of PRO XI’s mission “lies in the collective strength, compassion, and dedication of its people.”
