PCOL JULIO REYES GO – FIRST 100 DAYS

In the ragged platform of the law enforcement arena, what stabilizes and validates a
good commander is his authenticity, commitment and the ability to unmasked the
greatness of his team towards setting a higher standard for police force.

On January 10, 2022, PCOL JULIO REYES GO, took the gargantuan task of leading
the best police provincial office in the region at a time when our peace and order
landscape has been altered and challenged by the COVID19 pandemic and when the
entire police organization is about to shoulder another huge undertaking; the May 2022
National and Local Elections.

Today marks his 100th day of Office, a period characterized by small triumphs from
taking calculated actions, and facing varying challenges of the province’ peace and
order environment.

Given the caliber of Isabela PPO’s level of performance, upon his assumption to office,
PCOL GO accelerated the pedal for the unit’s administrative and operational arsenal
that yielded remarkable feats on our major Campaign against Illegal Drugs, with the
arrest of 31 drug personalities, along with the confiscation of 13.6184 grams of
Methamphetamine Hydrochloride with a DDB value of P92,605.12, and 1,846.803
grams of Marijuana valued at P184,680.30 by the Dangerous Drug Board. Riding on
the momentum of these gains, PCOL GO directed the launching of a more intensive
and focused intelligence operations which led to the eradication of huge marijuana
plantation in Tinglayan, Kalinga with an estimated land area of 11,000 SQM planted
with 115,000 Fully Grown Marijuana Plants with an estimated Dangerous Drug Board
Value (DDBV) of P23,000,000.00.

PCOL GO’s diverse intelligence background afforded him the leverage in launching an
intensified pursuit of criminals hiding from the law, resulting in Isabela PPO’s spiraled
success in the Campaign Against Wanted Person, which inked a record of 582
wanted personalities, arrested in a span of 100 days. Highlighting these remarkable
records is the arrest of JONARD VALDEZ ALAVA for the crime of Statutory Rape
under COPLAN AVATAR covered by DILG order on reward amounting to
Php135,000.00. The massive crackdown of wanted persons within AOR can also be
attributed to the strengthened legal offensives, intensified intelligence operations
and the efficient liaising with the courts initiated by the Acting Provincial Director.

Predominant among the varied indicators that show the performance of a police
commander is the peace and order situation in his area of responsibility. Data on the
successful Implementation of special laws is indicative of how PCOL JULIO R GO
steered IPPO personnel to tread the same path and share a common understanding of
goals. Thus, for the period, a total of 470 violators on Special Laws were apprehended
and lodged with appropriate cases before the court.

PCOL JULIO R GO’s relentless drive to cover all aspects of police operations has
resulted in IPPO’s other operational accomplishment particularly, Bilang Boga with 175
firearms surrendered/deposited to different police station for safe keeping pending
renewal of license, while efforts on Kontra Boga yielded the surrender of 56 assorted
loose firearms

operation has made Isabela PPO the cream of the crop, adjudged as the Over-all

Police Stations were declared as drug-free workplace.

Under IPPO’s ELCAC convergence activities, PCOL GO has directed tasked units to
sustain the tactical and legal offensives against the Communist Terrorist Groups,
targeting their strongholds and evaluating their network of connections and activities,
this eventually resulted to the arrest of 296 CTG members and supporters and
surrender of 18 assorted firearms, accomplishing all these whilst working for Isabela
PPO’s Retooled Community Support Program, wherein 10,601 activities were
