Abstract

The Philippine National Police (PNP) vision gave a clear mandate in enforcing the law, maintaining peace and order, and ensuring public safety and internal security with the active support of the community. This paper determined the community approval rating on the performance of the PNP along the delivery of programs and services, public trust, respect, and public safety and security. The survey involved 1,178 sample respondents from the different sectors in the region who were determined through multi-stage sampling techniques. Analysis of the data was made through a mixture of quantitative and qualitative techniques. It was found out that the PNP gained a positive very high trust and respect rating with a favorable commitment of support on their campaign against criminality from the different sectors in the region. The provinces of Camarines Norte and Camarines Sur have the highest public safety and security rating while the Province of Catanduanes has the lowest net approval rating from the community. The judiciary sector provided the lowest net approval rating on PNP programs against criminality while the academe has the lowest net approval rating on PNP campaign against illegal drugs. It is recommended that the PNP may strengthened their partnership and collaborations with the different sectors along their programs on peace and security towards a more responsive and committed patriotic community in Bicol region. Feedbacks from the community may be considered by the PNP in the region for continuous improvement of the delivery of the programs and services to the public.
