Errors made by the PNP during the Hostage Crisis at Rizal Park
September 20, 2010 the first official investigation delivered to the Chinese embassy
in Manila, indeed there are some errors with regards to the conduct and handling of
hostage crisis negotiation because it turns out into a bloody end due to casualty reported.
Some of the errors or contrary to the Police Operational Procedures were the following but
not limited to: 1. Firearms were used to take out the wheels of the bus. Rule No. 1 in
2. Too much media coverage. The hostage taker listened to the radio while inside the bus.
Ofcourse he knew what was gonna happen. Rule #2 in hostage takings: Media blackout; 3.
Usage of hammers to breakdown the door. The door of a bus is designed to withstand 50Gs
of instantaneous force or more. A hammer will do nothing to break it in one hit. There's an
emergency lever under the bus that can be used to open the door. Nobody knew about it.
Instead, they proceeded to hammer all sides of the fucking bus like it's a piñata;
4. Teargas concentrates can kill hostages and hostage takers alike. Tossing it in a zero
6. Flash photography from the dimwitted mediamen created confusion and unnecessary
distractions; 7. SWAT didn’t even use hand signals. They were shouting for crying out loud;
8. There was no armored cover. A vios, really? what can a Toyota do against a rifle round?;
9. Zero crowd control. By the time the ordeal was over, reporters arrived at the bus even
before the medics did, and never left. The medics had a hard time entering the area;
10. It’s a bus. Nobody knew how to handle a hostage taking inside a bus;

Hostage taking, and then what will be the precise intervention best suited for the crisis exists.
Moreover, best crisis intervention in the context of negotiation mostly embraces the four
primary stages: first, dealing with emotions – is a requisite skill for a crisis negotiator given
the fact that intense, volatile emotions are a hallmark of crisis situations. Second, establishing
communication – is the vehicle for the delivery of crisis intervention strategies and tactics.
The negotiator’s voice tone and intonation are at least as important as the content of the
communication. Third, identifying the precipitating events – is the last straw or trigger that
propels a person into crisis; it is critical in laying the groundwork for problem solving
because it identifies the conflict that needs to be resolved in the negotiation process. Finally,
problem solving – once emotions are better controlled, communication has been established,
and the triggering event has been identified and discussed, the subject is more likely to be
receptive to problem solving. To reiterate, the basic intervention for hostage crisis were

Review of Concepts
Helen E. Longino explores the complexities of human behavioral research in Studying Human
Behavior, a field still dominated by the age-old "nature versus nurture" debate. Rather than taking
a position on either side of the debate or attempting to replace it with another framework for
understanding behavior, Longino focuses on how scientists study it, in particular sexual behavior
and aggression, and asks what can be learned about human behavior through empirical
investigation. She breaks down five methods for studying behavior—quantitative behavioral
genetics, molecular behavioral genetics, developmental psychology, neurophysiology and anatomy,
and social/environmental methods—while highlighting the underlying presuppositions of each
discipline and the various issues and mechanisms that each focuses on. She also examines attempts
to combine various strategies. There is no one "right" strategy, according to Longino, but each one
advances our knowledge of how people behave in general. Longino also considers how this
behavioral research has been received and disseminated in the fields of science, society, medicine,
and politics. Studying Human Behavior is a groundbreaking study that sheds light on important
scientific issues. It will be required reading for scientists, philosophers, science journalists, and
anyone else interested in the fascinating difficulties of comprehending human behavior.
