Pampanga Ready For Annual ‘Crucifixion’

CITY OF SAN FERNANDO, Pampanga – Governor Lilia Pineda has ordered the deployment of additional policemen and security personnel in places usually visited by people in the province during the Maundy Thursday and Good Friday celebration.
Pineda also urged security heads of commercial establishments like SM Pampanga and Robinsons Starmills to deploy additional security personnel in preparation for the large volume of mall goers and tourists expected to visit the province this Holy Week for the annual “crucifixion rites.”
The Motorist Assistance Centers (MAC) and Public Assistance Centers (PAC) with ambulances and fire trucks have already been put in place throughout the province.
These posts are manned by police officers in shifting schedules to ensure that folk in need of help will be immediately accommodated. However, the governor reminded the police officers that the motorists’ assistance is not their sole priority and they should not be complacent as criminals might take advantage of this Lenten break.
“We should to be more vigilant to avoid any untoward incidents that maybe perpetrated by criminal elements,” she said.
Police Senior Superintendent Edgardo Tinio, police provincial director, instructed the police chiefs during their recent assembly here to ask for the assistance of force multipliers such as barangay tanods, non-governmental organizations (NGOs) like Guardians, Civicom, and Kabalikat, to further secure highly populated areas this Lenten Season.
In a related development, a group of independent radio broadcaster has established traffic assistance centers in different entry and exit points in the province to help both private and public motorists for a week-long Holy Week observance.
The traffic assistance centers were established by the Society of Communicators’ and Networkers (SCAN) Pampanga chapter in Arayat, Apalit, San Simon, Mabalacat, Magalang, Lubao, Mexico, City of San Fernando and Angeles City.
Daniel “Dan” Ombina, SCAN president in Candaba town, said that at least 10 traffic assistance centers were established all throughout the province.
Ombina said that SCAN has organized several medical groups composed of doctors, nurses and other health related professionals to provide medical attention for motorists needing it.
In Bulacan, Governor Wilhelmino M. Sy-Alvarado said as part of the Lakbay Alalay Sum Vac Program emergency and police assistance teams and volunteer radio and rescue groups are deployed in the province from April 4 to 8.
Alvarado said additional public assistance centers have been established at the Provincial Government of Bulacan, the Divine Mercy National Shrine in Marilao, and in Barangay Kapitangan, Paombong, where thousands of local and foreign tourists are expected to arrive to witness penitents.
Meanwhile, the governor said those in emergency situations can dial the Bulacan Rescue hotline 791-0566.
In a related development, the Cavite Police Provincial Office (PPO) has set up security measures for malls and other business stores in the area for the long Lenten weekend and summer vacation.
Senior Supt. John C, Bulalacao, PPO director, met yesterday with some mall representatives and store owners in his office in this camp and had discussed with them the police security and safety and protection measures intended for the season.
Cavite, the country’s most densely-populated province, is one of the areas in Southern Tagalog with the most number of commercial stores.
Bulalacao and his staff officers had a closed-door meeting with store representatives on security plans and how to ward off undesirable individuals or groups with their guards and personnel. (With reports from Freddie C. Velez and Anthony Giron)
