    The passage discusses the PNP's anti-crime campaign OPLAN LAMBAT-SIBAT which aims to reduce criminality in the Philippines through coordinated police operations and community involvement. It analyzes some of the challenges faced by previous approaches and the changes being adopted in the current campaign.

    OPLAN LAMBAT-SIBAT is the PNP's anti-crime campaign that uses wide dragnet operations across major cities combined with targeted actions to arrest criminals. Its objectives are to saturate high crime areas with police and implement security plans in convergence zones through operations like checkpoints and serving of warrants.

    The traditional ad hoc and siloed anti-crime approaches were shifted to be more deliberate, programmatic and sustained. Operations also became more data-driven and targeted specific most wanted criminals.

    Chapter 1

    THE PROBLEM AND ITS SETTING


    Introduction
    It's about time law enforcement got as organized as organized crime.
    - Rudy Giuliani
    The Integrated Pulis Anti-Crime Campaign launched OPLAN LAMBAT-SIBAT, a
    deliberate, programmatic, and sustained approach taken by the Philippine National Police to
    combat criminality nationwide. It uses both wide dragnet and intel-targeted operations to catch
    small-time criminals and repeat offenders, under the "whole of PNP" approach.1
    It is an anti-crime campaign spearheaded by the Philippine National Police (PNP) and the
    Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG). Its social media campaign consists of
    4 posters that informs social media users on how the PNP and the DILG will work together to
    arrest the Philippines' most wanted.2
    Every so often, the PNP has numerous laudable operational accomplishments reported and
    published in the media. These accomplishments are supposed to bring a message to the
    community that should make them feel safe and secured. Various manhunts and OPLANs were
    launched and intensified in an attempt to bring down criminality in the country.
    However, with the arrests of most wanted persons and the neutralization of notorious
    criminal groups, the public doesnt seem to see the impact in their lives and its significance to the
    improvement on crime rates and peace and order, if there really is. The anti-crime campaign was
    conducted in Ad hoc (Bara-Bara), Silos, (Kanya-kanya), and Sporadic (Ningas-Cogon).
    These accomplishments are not translated and interpreted to a language that the public can
    easily understand particularly to correlation of data expressed in numbers. Moreover, the Social
    Weather Station perception surveys toward the PNP remained low during the 2nd quarter of 2014.
    In effect, the public does not fully appreciate the whole picture of the success of the
    operations and how these anti-criminality campaigns are truly responding to, and helping the
    community with the perceived rising trend in robbery and theft.

    In 2014, the PNP was clueless on the surge of crimes like motorcycle riding criminals and
    sensational crimes in Metro Manila at the start of the year.
    On June 15, 2014, upon the orders of President Benigno Aquino, Secretary Mar Roxas
    started to focus on crime situation and made the necessary approach to the situation . On June 16,
    2014 with this situation at hand, the PNP started reckoning all the data.
    On June 18, 2014, Secretary Mar Roxas presided a command conference to drill-down on
    whats working, whats not and I wish on the anti-crime campaign. From the traditional
    approach, it shifted from Status quo to Pagbabago.

    OPLAN LAMBAT is a wide dragnet across the metropolis combined with targeted actions
    (hindi patsamba) which covers OPLAN Katok, OPLAN Bakal Sita and intensified Serving of
    Warrants. OPLAN LAMBAT has initially deployed 1300 policemen in high crime areas and 600
    more policemen to NCRPO for tactical deployment. This PASADYA A or the One time Big
    Time approach is meant to saturate high crime areas with policemen while PASADYA B is
    aimed for security plans in high traffic convergence zones.
    OPLAN SIBAT in as intel driven targeted action with tracker teams to arrest Most Wanted
    Person (MWP). OPLAN Sibat which also means spearfishing, is focused, targeted approach and
    integrated Most Wanted Person (MWP) listing. It sets a policy for one target, one team which
    looks for specific MWP.
    With OPLAN LAMBAT-SIBAT, weekly command conference is also conducted to
    improve coordination and the flow of information. The conference paves way for easier
    feedback and results of their effort.
    As it works in partnership with the community, force multipliers and auxiliaries have been
    tapped also to participate and involve helping the PNP particularly high-crime areas to relay
    information on the ground.
    The OPLAN Lambat-Sibat continues as it attempts to deal better with the crime by:
    a. Installing CCTVs in 38 Police Stations in NCRPO to help in monitoring activities
    inside police offices. This will be followed by the installation of 100 CCTVs in the
    identified high crime areas.

    b. Shifting the PNP Blotter system to Incident Record Form (IRF). Details of the IRF
    are registered to Crime Information Registration System (CIRS) and are readily
    available for verification and validation at Directorate for Investigation and Detective
    Management (DIDM) in real time.
    c. Establishment of National Emergency Number, an integrated call number for police,
    medical and emergencies.3
    Oplan Lambat-Sibat is a reinvigorated crime prevention effort using deliberate,
    programmatic and sustained police operations such as Checkpoint, Oplan Bakal-Sita, Mobile
    Patrol, Beat Patrol and Oplan Bulabog supported by scientific crime reporting from the Police
    Community Precincts (PCPs), to the stations, to the districts up to the National Capital Region
    Police Office (NCRPO) and solving them based on statistics. Because of the systems dramatic
    reduction of crime in NCR, it is now being cascaded to Regions 3 and 4-A.4
