GSIS President and General Manager Rolando Ledesma Macasaet turned over the check to PNP Chief Gen. Debold Sinas in a virtual claims settlement ceremony on January 19.
“GSIS immediately settled the claim after both parties acknowledged the private adjuster’s report and upon PNP’s acceptance of our settlement offer for the claim. The amount is the largest insurance payout that we approved in 2020,” Macasaet said.
The chopper, a 2017 Bell 429 Helicopter, carried eight people during the accident, including then-PNP Chief Archie Gamboa.
PNP’s insurance premium payment to GSIS for the aircraft was compensated for the accident including the medical expenses of the passengers. To date, PNP has nine other aircrafts insured with the pension fund.
January 20, 2021 THE proposal called Lawyers Protection Program that was formalized Monday, January 13, by 11 lawyers all members of the Cebu province chapter of Integrated Bar of the Philippines (IBP) decidedly takes to a higher level the requested response to the rash of killings of lawyers in Cebu.
The lawyers group has not ramped up the usual condemnation of the state of law and order, which has made lawyering one of the most dangerous careers in the country, and the appeal for law enforcers to end the climate of impunity.
Heavier load on table
Still, the 11 Cebu lawyers have placed a heavier load on the table.
The weight loss program was under the supervision of a doctor and fitness experts.
His routine: Strict diet, exercise, less alcohol, and a good sleep.
A four-minute exercise routine has been developed by the fitness gurus, done to the tune of Voltes V, a popular anime television series in the 80s.
Five days a week, the Voltes V tune is played over the public address system of Camp Crame twice a day at 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. and the PNP personnel execute the exercises where they are.
Sinas has revived the Size-34 waist requirement for every policeman.
He plans to revive the ideal Body Mass Index as a requirement for a healthy and fit police force soon.

Staff writer, with CNA
A staff member of the Taipei Economic and Cultural Office (TECO) in Manila who is preparing to wrap up his second stint at the office would be returning to Taiwan in February with a Philippine police decoration for having helped his host government arrest several criminal suspects.
Jerry Wang (王智勇), who has served as the equivalent of a police attache at the office, first served in the Philippines from July 2011 to January 2016 and was reassigned to Manila in December 2016.
Thanks to Wang’s help, Taiwan and the Philippines have solved several major transnational crimes during his stint in Manila, the TECO said on Saturday.
