City is a place known for its tranquility. To this day,
it still lives up to its being peaceful. The PNP Station
Command is active in its role as gatekeeper of peace
and order. For fire protection, the Roxas City Fire
Station has three (3) serviceable firetrucks with a
water capacity of 4,000 liters each and thirty-nine
(39) fire hydrants. The Capiz Citizens Action Group
(CACAG), a private volunteer organization has two (2)
firetrucks and is active in supplementing the services
rendered by the Bureau of Fire Protection.
Recently the Capiz Police Provincial
Office (CPPO) has called on applicants for firecracker
manufacturers, dealers, and outlets to discuss existing
rules and regulations in the manufacture and sale of
firecrackers this Christmas season.
“There were around 30 applicants
who attended the conference who were oriented on the
rules and regulations on the manufacturing and selling
of firecrackers as stipulated in Republic Act 7183,”
said Capiz Police Director S/Supt. Roberto Villanueva.
The security preparation of the local
police authorities is in line with the government’s
efforts to ensure a peaceful holiday season celebration.
The Arroyo administration has also called on various
sectors to be kind to those in need “as we enter
the holiday season.”
