CAMP TOLENTINO, Bataan — With the just-concluded generally peaceful election in Bataan, the Bataan Police Provincial Office (BPPO), led by Col. Marites A. Salvadora, police directress, still wanted to maintain the atmosphere of peace in the province.

Barely a day after the midterm election, Col. Salvadora led her men in holding what she called a strategic post-election meeting to assess the situation via zoom meeting together with the Command Group and Chiefs of Police from all municipal and city police stations.

Held at the Bataan PPO Headquarters, Salvadora pointed out, the meeting “served as a comprehensive assessment of the recently concluded elections.”

The agenda focused on evaluating the overall peace and order situation, identifying areas for improvement, and strengthening initiatives to ensure safety and security across the province, pointed out the police directress.

In lauding her men, the Bataan PD acknowledged the “collective efforts of the entire Bataan police force in ensuring a generally peaceful, honest and orderly election.”

In appreciating the efforts of the PNP, media practitioners and other government forces who were behind the peaceful holding of election, Gov. Joet Garcia expressed gratitude to them for their collective efforts, making the election one of the most peaceful holding of polls in Bataan.
