PNP to 'Undas' travelers: Stay alert!
Tempo
|October 31, 2025
As millions of Filipinos head to cemeteries and vacation spots for the "Undas" long weekend, the Philippine National Police (PNP) is urging the public to stay alert and guard against theft, snatching, and robbery - crimes that often spike in crowded, distracted environments.
More than 50,000 policemen will be deployed nationwide to secure All Saints' Day and All Souls' Day activities, but acting PNP chief Lt. Gen. Jose Melencio Nartatez, Jr. stressed that awareness remains the strongest defense against opportunistic offenders.
"Traditionally, the common incidents during "Undas" are theft, snatching and robbery. These are offenses that thrive in large, distracted crowds where people let their guard down," said Nartatez.
