A Group of Policemen: Faking Their Jobs!?!

When I traveled to Sagada Mountain Province for my vacation, there is a group of policemen in a checkpoint. As the standard practice, they need to get on the bus. I thought they will inspect the passengers or the bags in the bus compartments. You will be surprised what they did. As they enter the bus, each one of them took photos pretending to check the bus, the passengers, bags and the like. It was really a mind-blowing act. They are good actors. These photos taken will be sent to the Camp Crame as their proof of job in the field. They are cheating themselves and even the people inside the bus. What’s wrong in the picture?

Really? That's illegal. It's within your rights to deny permission.

I don't see the face only the hand cuffs in the photo. They are so irresponsible with their duty, if a wrong person is traveling then what? They will just let him go. Due to a few like these every police men has a bad remark on them and the public don't care for them, also don't respect.

I lost the respect to our policemen when they were being controlled by the administration of the president. It turned to be in high profile on social medias or TV.

@dhoyalahoy I don't mind at first. It seems really odd for them to do such an act. They became abusive lately.

Can you not report them? .. I believe that if we want change, we the people need to be a part of that change.. Maybe those policemen, don't like working with Duterte.. They want to remain corrupt .. and blame the President ..

If I have the photo of these policemen, I will report them anonymously. It just happened that it is so fast when they did this inside the bus.

Reminds me of that moment were I visit the Mall and the guards don't get their job seriously in terms of checking our belongings and search us when ever we come to the entrance. I bet if something bad happens, they get serious and then not again.

It would be different if they were on high alert for possible terrorist activities. Then you will see them armed to the teeth with high caliber weapons and the military would be taking the lead in those checkpoints. But I am not aware that Sagada and the rest of the Mountain province is anything but a peaceful place.

I am sure military men are far fiercely in dealing with the enemies. The places in Mountain Province are peaceful. However, they are some news that NPA may penetrate the places.
