2. PURPOSE:

This CMC prescribes the operational guidelines and procedures for the
conduct of motorcycle patrol within the area of responsibility as a proactive and
reactive means in intensified police visibility, anti-criminality and police security
operations in the prevention and reduction of theft, robbery, murder, illegal activities
and other prevalent crimes in Santiago City. The Motorcycle Patrol Team (MPT) of
CFMC shall also be activated as one of the preemptive ways to support the conduct
of counter white area operations in AOR.

3. SITUATION:

Santiago City is considered as the only independent City in Region 2. It is

a highly urbanized city wherein a lot of commercial, financial, industrial, amusement,
leisure areas, resorts and educational institutions are established all throughout the
city. Because of that, volume of populace from different municipalities are migrating
or sojourning in Santiago City. Every day, people are going in and out in the city:
maybe for the purpose of job, business, studies and other personal reasons.

With this, lawless elements are taking advantage of the populated and
congested city to carry out their evil desires. As to the crime situation in AOR, for
C.Y. 2022, Santiago City Police Office has recorded a total of 169 crimes consists of
90 index crimes and 79 non-index crimes while for the C.Y. 2021, there were a total
of 134 crimes which consists of 67 index crimes and 67 non-index crimes. This
shows that the crime rate for index and non-index crimes for C.Y. 2022 increased by
35 incidents or 26.12% as compared with C.Y. 2021.
 As to the insurgency situation of Santiago City, based from the most recent
social investigation and class analysis conducted by intelligence personnel of this
unit, generally, the city is categorized as white area. Thus, there were no recorded
armed conflicts between the government side and the CPP/NPA/NDF. Nevertheless,
we cannot set aside the possibility that it would still be penetrated by the Communist
Terrorist Group (CTG) as they are persistent in initiating their deceitful proganda
wherein most of their targets are the youth, women and other vulnerable groups in
the society.

The foregoing only implies that there is a call for the Santiago City Police
Office to strengthen its police intervention activities and its anti-criminality initiatives
to further prevent and control occurrence of crimes in Santiago City.

One of which is the intensification of its patrol activities through the

creation of the CMFC Motorcycle Patrol Team (MPT). The effective and efficient
conducts of patrol activities contribute great success in law enforcement and in crime
prevention. The efforts in strengthening relationship with the community also
encourage possible CTG supporters to voluntarily surrender and eventually support
the programs and activities of the government.
