BALER, Aurora, June 11, 2011-To uphold true broadcast and journalistic values, Aurora provincial director, Police Senior Supt. Ervin “Jojo” B. Gumban led a two day enhancement training on news writing and broadcasting for the 35 Philippine National Police (PNP) newly designated as police information officers here at Camp Captain Victor Ravina, Brgy. Sabang last June 9 to 10, 2011.
Cops participants highlighted the need of upholding the high values of journalism, especially within the new security environment in which there is a clear danger of losing the truth and credibility when faced with violence and hostile ground realities.
The views were put across during the workshop organized by SPO2 Desiderio “Ding” M. Noora, Aurora over-all PNP spokesman in collaboration with the different point of views of the police, saying that the true journalistic values had been compromised a bit since each media outlet constantly tries to outshine others in the race of broadcasting breaking news; however, the police agreed that in the face of tremendous challenges face by the media, there are still journalists out there who do not compromise on facts and truths and those are the real unsung heroes and flag-bearers of the profession.
The participants said that determining the national interest was too important business to be left with the security institutions to protect the welfare of the people in the province.
They said that the parliament, civil society and the media must get together to evolve a consensus over what constitutes national interest. Cops participants also highlighted the dilemma of how some stakeholders, through their vested interests, tried to influence media through money and advertisement revenues.
Noora believes that the freedom of speech and freedom to write is a responsibility. Without responsibility and accountability, freedom and independence could become harmful.
“There are numerous factors out there which hamper the pursuit of truth and threaten the journalists’ integrity,” Noora said, explaining that the Aurora cops realized to establish police spokesman to give the truest information to the people without fear.
Noora said that the seminar is intended for the creation of Aurora PNP press corps, the creation of radio program on DZJO FM which is run by the catholic and the establishment of “Pulis Silangan” a police news letter to be circulated in the entire province next month.
He furthered that the seminar will also serve as the central source of information release by the police; assist the media in covering routine news stories; prepare and distribute news releases; arrange for, and assist at, news/press conference; coordinate the release of information that concerns confidential police operations and/or investigation; provide information openly and honestly to contribute confidence, trust and respect in the police force among others.
“I think this is the first province which has been organized here in central Luzon to disseminate information to the public from the police force,” Noora ended. (Jason de Asis)

Sir Jason, dahil kayo po ang nagpa-seminar sa mga pulis na iyan. Kaya po ba nilang ipagtanggol ang integridad ng kapulisan at ng gubyerno na pinamumunuan ni Abnoy-Pnoy na ngayon ay pasama na ang imahe dahil sa sunod-sunod na kontrobersiya sa bansa. Sa Aurora ay maraming isyu ng land grabbing, violation of human rights, political dynasty at harrasment sa mga pangkaraniwang mamamayan? May kakayanan kaya ang mga iyan na magpaliwanag ng mahusay para sa tao o wala? Antabayanan ang susunod na kabanata.
Mabuhay ka sir Jason sa iyong pagbabahagi para makatulong sa komunidad. Nawa ay pagpalain ka ng Poong May-kapal sa iyong bokasyon na pagtulong ng hindi naghihintay ng anumang kapalit. Sana magbago na rin ang ibang Media sa Aurora na hindi makagawa ng balita kapag walang lagay. keep it up. (Noble Blue Falcons)
Magaling talaga si Sir Noora. Nun pa mang araw ay talagang napaka-aktibo ng batang iyan. Kahit sa BLD AFP-PNP covenant Community ay n apakasipag niyan. Good Luck. God Bless.
Tanong lang po kung iyan po bang mga spokesman na iyan ay gagamitin laban sa mga militanteng grupo na lumalaban para sa kapakanan ng bayan na katulad ng ginagawa ng Army na may pahaging palagi?
That's Great. DZJO FM is still the biggest area of coverage in Aurora. Sir Jason is the product of it. He is a well educated and professional one in broadcasting and even in news writing. He is my professor at Lyceum of the East. Siya lang nagturo sa amin ng walang kodiko. Ang hawak lamang niya kapag napasok ay black pen na pang-sulat sa white board at Lap top na gamit niya sa pagtuturo. Congrats to PNP and Spirit FM. God Bless all of you.
They said that first impression lasts. I hope that the 1st publication of Aurora PNP "Pulis Silangan" is really impressing. Good luck to all of you guys.
To the police of Aurora, this is another tasks for you to accomplish especially the new information officers in every PNP stations. More power and blessings to all of you there!!!
Nice one.
Maka-miss din yung program nun nila sir Jason at sir Ding sa DZJO FM ginaya lang ng Army.
May bago ngayon TV at Radyo sa ATI. Mas maganda. Sila Senador Angara may hawak. Malaki sweldo try ninyo dun.
Tama may bagong TV at Radyo sa ATI. Subukan ninyo kaysa puro serbisyo na walang patutunguhan kundi patuloy na pagkalam ng tiyan. Sayang ang talent at kaalaman ninyo.
Tito Ding congrats po for a job well done. Sana gayahin kayo ng ibang mga pulis sa mga ginagawa ninyong kabutihan.
Lumipat na lang kayo sa bagong TV at radyo station sa Aurora. May sweldo na malaki, mga benepisyo at kayang ipang-buhay ng pamilya. Mahirap yung puro dasal na gutom naman ang inaabot. Dapat balanse hindi yung busog sa pangagaral kumakalam naman ang sikmura. Mas maganda yung nangangaral sa kapwa na hindi problema ang pera. Lipat na kayo sa bagong station.
May pera nga hawak ka naman sa leeg. Ay huwag na lang mag-media. DZJO FM pa rin kami!!!
Anu ba tu...kung saan-saan na napupunta ang usapan.
Lumipat na si Joe Mora, si Carlo Nitro, si Richard Baoy sumunod na kayo. Walang mangyayari sa inyo sa DZJO. Walang maayos na direksyon. Gutom lang ang aabutin ninyo diyan. Lipat na....Yung allowance ninyo diyan pang-katulong lang. Wala naman pala kayong SSS, Philhealth samantalang sa TV at Radyo sa Aurora kumpleto. Malaki pa ang sweldo. May direksyon. Bumubuti ang kalagayan ng empleyado. Kayo diyan puna ng puna. Dapat una muna ninyong ayusin yang sarili ninyong pamumuhay bago ang iba. Tsk...tsk...tsk..
Huwaw! galing ng mga tolay-PNP!
More power to PNP Aurora!!!
May media daw na nag-aayos na magpalusot ng kahoy sa Dingalan. Ayon sa source: kinakausap daw si Usita na ipalusot yung mga kahoy. Ayaw ni Usita. Yun daw media ay pandak!!!
