Tap PNP, AFP to secure power lines– VP

The Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) and the Philippine National Police should be tapped to secure power transmission lines in Mindanao, Rico Quicho, spokesman on political affairs of Vice President Jejomar Binay, said on Friday as he laid out steps that Binay believed would prevent more bombings of towers of the National Grid Corporation of the Philippines (NGCP).

The Vice President “believes the military and police should first be mobilized. Let them secure, round the clock if needed, the NGCP transmission lines and power facilities to avoid bombing of these infrastructure,” according to Quicho.
