Furthermore, according to the provincial director, the Bulacan chiefs of police have mandated inspections at memorial parks, cemeteries, columbaria, and transport terminals to enhance police presence and ensure the safety of travelers heading to their provinces.
Dissemination of safety tips and information is also undertaken to raise public awareness of different safety measures against lawless elements, making them more vigilant, responsible, and cautious in time for All Saints and All Souls Day.
