"Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) Spokesperson Brig. Gen. Restituto Padilla Jr. said the public has to remain alert, and vigilant of their surroundings to ensure their safety.
“Upon seeing suspicious individuals or things, they should immediately report these to authorities,” Padilla said.
He explained the monitoring of security is not just the job of the uniformed personnel but of everyone as well.
Through this, the military official said, the safety of the community can be ascertained.
“Again we call on everyone to unite against this common threat on terrorism because if we work together we can secure and keep our community safe from all kinds of threats,” he said.
He added that it is better to remain prepared even if there’s no threat monitored yet in major cities across the country.
“But then again as I mentioned the threats never stops there will always be threat coming from anywhere, anytime of the day, anytime of the week and hence the issue here is readiness,” said Padilla.
The general explained that with continuous cooperation of the public to authorities, lawless elements will be deterred from committing crimes. – Lea Ylagan | UNTV News & Rescue
