THE Philippine National Police (PNP) in Bacolod now have a reliable system of crime data transmission from police stations to its headquarters in Camp Crame with the launching Friday of its e-blotter system.
Police Regional Office Deputy Director for operations Manuel Felix led Friday’s launching at the Bacolod City Police Office (BCPO) headquarters together with Mayor Evelio Leonardia, Vice Mayor Jude Thaddeus Sayson, Councilors Em Ang, Sonia Verdeflor, Al Victor Espino, Roberto Rojas, El Cid Familiaran, Archie Baribar, Caesar Distrito and Catalino Alisbo, and BCPO Director Ricardo De la Paz. Felix said through the e-blotter system, the information can be captured in all levels -- from the local police stations to the regional headquarters and to the national headquarters in Camp Crame. “It’s very fast. You can get the information immediately,” he added. He said it would help the commanders immediately see what kind of crime incidents happened within their area of responsibility. The system would also allow the complainants to follow-up their complaints after giving the information to the police, he said. Felix cited that complainants will be given a receipt or tracking number so that they can follow up the case in other police stations, even outside Bacolod City. “Only the crime registrar can access the system,” he said. Felix said the e-blotter system is not yet full-blown in other regions. In Western Visayas, only Bacolod and Iloilo Cities have the modern system. BCPO also received 14 units of computers from the City Government for the e-blotter system to be used by different police stations in the city. De la Paz said the e-blotter system is a project of PNP office to modernize the crime database and to have daily monitoring of the different police stations here. “It will become an effective management tool for us as commanders in decision-making, in formulating anti-crime strategies and in the deployment of our personnel,” he said. He added the e-blotter system is tamper-free. All crime incidents in different areas of responsibility of respective stations will be encoded in the system and will be transmitted to Camp Crame.
