How about a young Philippine National Police (PNP) chief for a change? Anakalusugan Party-List Rep. Mike Defensor floated this possibility even as Malacañang appears to be taking its sweet time in choosing a replacement for former PNP Chief, General Oscar Albayalde, who recently resigned.

How about a young Philippine National Police chief for a change?

According to the lawmaker, the President’s choice for the position is so important that his wisdom cannot be undermined. “If need be na kukunin niya talaga dun sa mga batang mga sundalo o opisyales, then wala tayong magagawa ,” added Defensor, a former Palace chief of staff. The mandatory retirement age in the national police force is 56. However, there have been proposals to increase that age to 60, if only to give the sitting PNP chief more time and opportunities to clean the ranks.
