DILG Gives Statement On Debold Sinas’ Birthday Party

DILG GIVES STATEMENT ON SINAS – The Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) said the party of the NCRPO chief was a “BIG NO-NO”.

Recently, the National Capital Region Police Office chief Maj. Gen. Debold Sinas received flack for his birthday party. However, the PNP chief defended Sinas and stated he found no violations.

But, during an interview with DZMM, DILG Secretary Eduardo Año said the party was a “Big No-No”. The DILG is the department that oversees the police and its activities.

Moreover, the party was organized without Sinas’ knowledge. Based on an article from ABS-CBN, Año emphasized that Sinas should have stopped the gathering immediately, especially amid the coronavirus lockdown.

Ang aking sinasabi sa ating mga government official, lalo na sa nasasakupan ng DILG, iyong tinatawag nating delicadeza. May mga pagkakataon na kailangan maging example ka

(I tell our government officials, especially those under the DILG, of the so called “delicadeza”. There are times wherein you should be the example).

The photos were posted by NCRPO’s Public Information Office on May 8. In the photos, you could see Sinas mingling with others at a table with the other guests lining up for the buffet meals.

However, when interviewed by One News, Sinas denied that there was a “party”. He stated:

Hindi po kami nag-party. Wala pong party. Mga well-wishers ko po iyon, ‘yung mga tauhan ko po na dumalaw, nagmañanita. Siyempre tatanggapin ko ‘yun

Amid the Enhanced Community Quarantine, mass gatherings are prohibited in order to prevent the spread of the new coronavirus, COVID-19.
