Philippine National Police (PNP) chief Gen. Rommel Francisco Marbil has instructed all PNP units to respond to 911 emergency calls within three minutes as part of a new initiative to enhance police assistance.
Marbil emphasized that the upgraded E911 system, replacing the Patrol 117 hotline, aims to ensure prompt and efficient responses across all communities.
He highlighted the importance of preparedness and professionalism in handling emergency calls.
The directive reflects the PNP’s commitment to improving public safety and security, and Marbil urged citizens to use the 911 service responsibly.
The upgraded system is designed to reduce response times and enhance coordination among emergency services.
