Dennis Carcamo - The Philippine Star

MANILA, Philippines - The government will be buying new vehicles for the Philippine National Police worth over P2 billion, Interior and Local Government Secretary Mar Roxas disclosed on Wednesday.

In an interview with reporters at PNP headquarters in  Camp Crame, Quezon City, Roxas said the  budget will be for the acquisition of 2,500 carriers or flatbeds for PNP personnel.
 
"Pinulong ho natin 'yung mga gumagawa ng mga sasakyan dito sa ating bansa. 'Yung car manufacturers association at 'yung iba't ibang mga kumpanya na gumagawa at nagbebenta ng sasakyan dito sa ating bansa.
 
"Ang PNP ho ay binigyan ng budget. Mahigit sa P2 billion at bibili ho tayo ng more than 2,500 na mga sasakyan para sa PNP at ito po ay ikakalat sa iba't ibang tanggapan at police office ng PNP sa ating buong kapuluuan," Roxas said.
 
He also assured  the public that the transaction involving these PNP vehicles will be transparent in accordance with the Aquino government's "daang matuwid" principle.
 
"Sinisiguro ho natin ang lahat nang sa ganun ay hindi magkaroon ng kahit anong mantsa, kahit anong pagtanong o kahit anong anomalya dito sa pagbili ng 2,500 na mga sasakyan na ito para sa PNP," Roxas said.
 
"Kung noong nakaraang ay nagkaroon ng anomalya, kontrobersya 'yung mga malalaking pagbili ng PNP,  makakaasa po ang ating mga kababayan na sa ilalim ni Pangulong Pnoy sa  kanyang pamahalaan itong pagbili nitong mga sasakyang ito na naghahalaga sa higit P2 billion ay magiging malinis, hayag, transparent ayon sa batas at walang kaduda duda," he added.
