Cordilleran is new PNP Director of Bicol Region

Besao, Mt. Province – The newly-appointed top cop of Police Regional Office 5 or Bicol region is an Igorot from Besao, Mt. Province.

Police Brigadier General (PBGEN) Rudolph Botengan Dimas assumed his post as the new Regional Director of PRO5 following the ceremonial turn-over held on Sunday, August 14, 2022 at the PRO5 Grandstand in Camp BGen Simeon A Ola, Legazpi City.

Replacing PBGen. Mario Reyes, Dimas now leads the 11,428 strong police force of Bicol. He is said to be the 40th regional director of the region.

Dimas is a member of PNP Academy “Tagapagpatupad” Class of 1992.

He served as the Provincial Director of Camarines Norte PNP from November 2015 to October 2017 and was installed as the Director PNP Anti-Kidnapping Group (PNP-AKG) before he was assigned back to PRO5.

The regional director vowed to anchor his leadership to the “MKK=K” framework of PNP Chief Rodolfo Azurin. “MKK=K” means Malasakit (compassion) + Kaayusan (order) + Kapayapaan (peace) = Kaunlaran (progress).

“My leadership is always anchored on putting God first. We must accept that as human beings we have limitations but let it not be an excuse for committing misdemeanors every now and then. Anyone can make mistakes, but one must be accountable for his own action,” Dimas added.

He further committed to impose the “reward and punishment” program on the personnel of PRO5.

“I will look into your service reputation and performance evaluation because I believe that every snappy and disciplined officer has an equal opportunity. Your morale and welfare are important to me, but you should also have a sense of responsibility and accountability. Walang palakasan, trabaho lang,” Dimas said.

To successfully carry out the PNP motto which is “to serve and protect,” he asked cooperation of every Bicolano.
