“Service, Honor, Justice” – are the three words embedded in the Philippine National Police seal.
PNP Seal
While some of our policemen were stereotyped as corrupt and/or abusive, there are still a few good men. Interestingly, a Netizen shared his wonderful story about a humble policeman he met inside the Jeepney.
As shared by Allen, despite the Jeepney being packed, the humble cop still insisted and waited for his turn to sit. Allen also mentioned that the cop paid for the senior citizen as well.

Here’s the full caption:
Saludo ako kay Mamang pulis kanina habang pauwi.. Siksikan na sa jeep kaya nagulat ako sumakay parin at sumabit nalang.. Nang madami nang bumaba saka xa lumipat ng pwesto para umupo. maya maya pa nag abot xa ng bayad mamang pulis: Bayad po isang senior, isang pulis.. (binAyaran nya pati ung matandang nakasakay) Nung una ayaw tanggapin ng driver ung bayad nya. kaya sabi nya
Mamang Police: “Anong gusto mo magkaibigan tayo o magkaaway tayo.? Tanggapin mo na yan” pabirong sabi nito. kaya tinanggap ng driver unh bayad. Maya maya pa. bumaba na ung pulis. sabi nung ale na katabi ko. “Yan ang mabuting pulis hindi corrupt”. Nakakatuwa lang isipin na kahit maraming naiinis sa mga pulis sa panahon ngayon eh marami pading pulis na kagaya nya na matulungin at tapat sa tungkulin. Siya si Senior Police Officer Agravante, Tularan natin siya . 🙂 Share lang ^^
PNP Seal – Service. Honor. Justice
Whether they are off or on-duty, these policemen are expected to serve, honor, and provide justice. Sadly, there are circumstances that say otherwise. As mentioned above, despite being stereotyped as bad or corrupt cops, I believe they are still a few good men. Unfortunately, only some are being acknowledged.
And, just like Allen, I am also glad to hear beautiful stories like this. It could restore our faith in police officers.
Kudos to you, Sir and to your fellow men who work with integrity and respect.
