CAMP ALEJO SANTOS, Bulacan — The Police Regional Office 3 (PRO3) launched its latest anti-criminality strategy which will serve as an alarm system for those business establishments that are enrolled with the system.
In his statement, Brig. Gen. Jose S. Hidalgo Jr., PRO3 regional director on Wednesday (Feb. 21) said the main goal of the strategy is to establish a direct link to the local police by merely dialing the dedicated cellular phone number of the police station without any conversation and would trigger the quick deployment of police response team to be sent to their area.
Hidalgo said that the project is also designed to enhance the efficiency of quick law enforcement operations within Region 3’s Area of Responsibility (AOR), the ‘Quick Dial Quick Response’ initiative integrates the contact information of nearby police stations into the quick dial settings of dedicated cellular phones of enrolled business entities which contains the contact number of the police station exclusively.
“The project “Quick Dial Quick Response” would capitalize on the power of modern technology. This innovative initiative leverages cellular phone’s all key dialing capabilities to facilitate emergency calls that would prompt police response to address crime and public safety emergencies,” the regional director added.
He added the suppose crime incidents would occur, upon receiving the call without answering, the police station will immediately dispatch police responders to the location of the business establishment that made the call, expediting the deployment of law enforcement resources to address emergencies such as robberies, hold-ups, and other crime incidents that necessitate police action and other public safety concerns.
The Quick Dial Quick Response initiative magnifies PRO3’s commitment to ensuring safer communities through proactive crime prevention strategies and rapid emergency response capabilities. (UnliNews Online)
