Torre: PNP 'hopes for best, prepares for worst' ahead of SONA 2025
Philippine National Police chief General Nicolas Torre III said they are 'hoping for the best and preparing for the worst' as security preparations continue ahead of the State of the Nation Address (SONA) on Monday. Torre made the statement after his charity boxing event in Manila where he was declared as winner by default, shortly before he headed to check on critical points of deployment to ensure the security for President Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos, Jr.'s fourth SONA at the Batasang Pambasa in Quezon City. "After this, actually pupunta kami ng Baseco and then after we release the relief goods that we have, pupunta na kami sa areas kung saan ang critical points ng ating deployment sa SONA," Torre said. The National Capital Region Police Office (NCRPO) said more than 20,000 police personnel have been deployed as part of security measures for the annual event. When asked if the number of deployed cops for the SONA is overkill, Torre responded it is just part of their preparations. The NCRPO said nearly 23,000 police personnel will secure this year's SONA. "We always respect the opinion of other people. Naniniguro lang tayo, we always hope for the best but we are prepared for the worst," said Torre. (We are just making sure.) In a Super Radyo dzBB interview, NCRPO spokesperson Police Major Hazel Asilo also said they have been closely coordinating with the intelligence community as part of their SONA preparations. Meanwhile, the Metro Manila Development Authority (MMDA) said it have traffic management and flood measures in place along Commonwealth Avenue for the SONA. — RF, GMA Integrated News

Palace congratulates INC on 111th anniversary
President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. on Sunday expressed his congratulations to the Iglesia ni Cristo on its 111th anniversary, recognizing the religious group for its "continued service, charity, and solidarity with others." 'Sa loob ng higit isang siglo, ipinahayag at pinatunayan ng pamunuan at mga kasapi ng Iglesia ni Cristo ang kanilang layunin na magsilbing huwarang mga mamamayan at mabubuting alagad ng Diyos sa pamamagitan ng paglilingkod, pagkakakawanggawa, at pakikiisa sa kapwa. Ang kanilang magagandang gawain ay lubos na nagdulot ng malawakang pagbabago at namunga ng pagkakaintindihan, pagdadamayan at pagkakaisa,' Marcos said in a message shared on his official social media accounts. (For over a century, the leadership and members of the Iglesia ni Cristo have proclaimed and affirmed their purpose to serve as exemplary citizens and good disciples of God through service, charity, and solidarity with others. Their good works have brought about widespread change and have resulted in understanding, mutual understanding, and unity.) The President emphasized what he considers the important role of the INC as a partner of the government in promoting his vision for the country. 'Nawa'y lahat ng ating pagsisikap ay magsilbing katuparan ng isang Bagong Pilipinas na tunay na makatao, makabansa, at may takot sa Diyos,' he added. (May all our efforts serve to realize a New Philippines that is truly humane, patriotic, and God-fearing.) Marcos Jr. earlier declared July 27, 2025 as a special non-working day in the Philippines for the founding anniversary of the INC. — RF, GMA Integrated News

PNP, MMDA: Ready for SONA 2025
The Philippine National Police (PNP) and the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) said Sunday that they have made the necessary preparations for the fourth State of the Nation Address of President Ferdinand Marcos, Jr., at the Batasang Pambansa in Quezon City on Monday, July 28. In an interview over Super Radyo dzBB, NCRPO spokesperson Police Major Hazel Asilo said they have been closely coordinating with the intelligence community. LIVE sa DZBB: PMaj. Hazel Asilo, chief, Public Information Office, NCRPO ????: 594 kHz AM band ????: ????: — DZBB Super Radyo (@dzbb) July 26, 2025 'Mahigpit po yung ating ginagawang koordinasyon sa ating intelligence community at sa pangunguna ng ating regional director ay wala po taying na-monitor na matinding banta na magko-cause po ng hindi maganda kumbaga sa araw ng SONA ng ating Pangulo,' she said. (We are closely coordinating with the intelligence community and through the leadership of our regional director (Police Brigadier General Anthony Aberin) we have not monitored any serious threats that would cause anything untoward the SONA of our President.) Regarding the planned protest actions that are a staple of any SONA, the NCRPO official said there are rallyists or groups that have been approved by the Quezon City local government but whose permits are subject to conditions to ensure their activities do not violate any laws and will be orderly. 'Pagdating po sa mga nagsabi na magkakaroon po sila ng kilos protesta, meron po tayong mga raliyista o mga grupo na inapprove na po ng local government yung mga kanila pong magiging rally bukas at kasabay po ng pag approve ng kanilang mga permits pero po tayong inilatag na mga kondisyon para naman po maging maayos yung kanilang pagsasagawa ng kanilang mga kilos protesta,' Asilo said. Asilo said both pro- and anti-government groups will only be allowed up to the St. Peter's Parish Church. She said the same location to assemble was done to be fair and not to show bias towards any group. The NCRPO said 22,987 police personnel have been deployed to conduct security for the annual event. Of the total complement, 16,600 are cops assigned to the NCRPO while support units from Region 4A of Police Regional Office 3 number 3,707 police officers while other agencies have contributed 3,2020 personnel. MMDA Meanwhile, MMDA Chairman Romando Artes said the MMDA has prepared to ensure that traffic and floods will not hinder the SONA. In a separate interview on Super Radyo dzBB, Artes said, 'Handang handa na po tayo. Mag iimplement po tayo ng counterflow or zipper lane as usual sa Commonwealth Avenue para mabigyan daan po ang mga dadalo ng SONA na guests such as foreign dignitaries makadaan po sa kabilang lane para hindi po maabala.' (We are very ready. We will implement a counterflow along Commonwealth Avenue to allow SONA visitors such as foreign dignitaries to pass through without delay.) To prevent possible flooding, the MMDA head said it has deployed temporary pumps that would quickly transfer water from the highway to a creek. It will also widen drainage inlets to allow more water to pass through. 'Naiayos na din natin po ang drainage inlet sa Commonwealth with the assistance of San Miguel Corp. Nilakihan po ang pasukan ng tubig para po mabilis makapunta sa drainage at mailabas papunta po sa creek sa kabilang side. Water coming from the IPP Road. During inspection, the one foot by one foot of what was formerly two meters by three meters. Can't say who was behind the reduction. Old images show there were formerly several inlets that have since disappeared,' he explained. Artes said when the MMDA talked to the latest contractor of the MRT-7, the company said they are the second contractor and that they do not know what happened that caused the missing inlets. The MMDA chief said the agency is not looking for someone to blame or making excuses but are instead looking for a workable solution. Artes said the solution the MMDA has come up with is to install two large inlets where water could pass through to the other side of the major thoroughfare to a creek. According to Artes, there is also a post blocking the drainage that has become a chokepoint for rainwater. As a temporary measure, the MMDA has deployed temporary pumps to redirect the water to the creek on the opposite side of the highway. Last Saturday, the agency said that aside from runoff water, the water level was manageable. 'Hopefully masustain namin whole year round tuwing may pag ulan ang ganitong programa and maayos po yung drainage para maiwasan po yung poste na naitayo.' he said. (Hopefully, we could sustain this program every time it rains and we fix the drainage to avoid the post that was constraucted.) The MMDA said the No Contract Apprehension Policy (NCAP) will be implemented along Commonwealth Avenue. — RF, GMA Integrated News
