Police use ‘charm offensive’ with ‘Tokhang’ flyers, flowers for MRT commuters on Valentine’s Day

TO RAISE awareness about “Operation Tokhang” and to regain public trust, the Philippine National Police (PNP) distributed flyers about its anti-drug campaign and flowers to commuters at the Metro Rail Transit (MRT) Cubao station on Wednesday, Valentine’s Day.

"Tokhang is not a bad word. Alam natin na in so many months, nagkaroon ng other meaning but the true meaning of that is good meaning para po pakiusapan yung ating kababayan na go away from drugs," Senior Supt. Bartolome Bustamante, deputy director of PNP Police Community Relations Group (PCRG), told reporters.
