As Philippine National Police chief General Rommel Francisco Marbil ends his term on June 7; he continues to place his faith in his successor to reform and improve the police force, saying that he goes for continuity rather than legacy.

The next chief

While I do not know the current chief, I do like the fact that he believes in continuing education and learning, especially about the law as, after all, learning is life long.

Among those being considered for the post are PNP deputy chief for administration Lt. Gen. Jose Melencio Nartatez Jr., PNP chief directorial staff Lt. Gen. Edgar Allan Okubo, National Capital Region police office director Maj. Gen. Anthony Aberin and Criminal Investigation and Detection Group director Maj. Gen. Nicolas Torre III.
