B. Body of Paper
a) Brief Description of the Selected Country
 The Philippines is a country in Southeast Asia in the western
Pacific Ocean. It is an archipelago made up of 7,106 islands
located in relation to many of Southeast Asia's main water
bodies: the South China Sea, Philippine Sea, Sulu Sea, Celebes
Sea, and Luzon Strait. Proximate countries include Taiwan,
Vietnam, and Indonesia. The geography is mountainous with
narrow coastal lowlands. The government system is a republic;
the chief of state and head of government is the president. The
Philippines has a mixed economic system which includes a
variety of private freedom, combined with centralized economic
planning and government regulation. Philippines is a member of
the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) and the
Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN).

b) Status of Criminality

c) National Police Force

 The Philippine National Police (Filipino: Pambansang Pulisya ng
Pilipinas and abbreviated as PNP) is the armed, civilian national
police force of the Philippines. Its national headquarters is
at Camp Crame in Quezon City, Metro Manila, and it has 160,000
personnel.
 The PNP was formed on January 29, 1991 when the Philippine
Constabulary and the Integrated National Police were merged
pursuant to Republic Act 6975 of 1990.

d) Administering Body
 It is administered and controlled by the National Police
Commission and is part of the Department of the Interior and
Local Government (DILG). Local Police officers are operationally
controlled by municipal mayors (except during the 30 days
immediately preceding and following any national,
local and barangay elections. During these periods, the local
police forces are under the supervision and control of
the Commission on Elections). DILG, on the other hand,
organizes, trains and equips the PNP for the performance of
police functions as a police force that is national in scope and
civilian in character.
