P/Brig. Gen. Flynn Dongbo is the new regional police director of Western Visayas.

Dongbo, who used to be assigned as director of the Bacolod City Police Office, yesterday replaced P/Brig. Rolando Miranda, who already reached the mandatory age retirement of 56.

PNP chief Guillermo Eleazar, who is also bowing out from the police service on November 13, has presided over the Police Regional Office 6 change of command ceremony yesterday at Camp Martin Delgado in Iloilo City.

Eleazar said he noted that the saddest part of retirement is “when you have no fond memories to look back to”.

That is why, I encourage police officers to make the best out of everything that we do in everything that we have been tasked to do, when opportunity comes in our service, he stressed during the turnover of command ceremony.

Eleazar, who described Miranda as an efficient and reliable police officer, thanked him for his three decades of service to the country.

“We have witnessed how you lead the PRO6 on the different programs, thrust and activities of the PNP and government, and we are very much thankful for that,” Eleazar told Miranda.

The outgoing PNP chief said he also expects Dongbo to continue the reforms instituted and introduced by his predecessor, in order to elevate and to meet the needs of time.

Prior to his retirement, Miranda also installed P/Col. Leo Batiles as the new director of the Iloilo City Police Office.

Batiles used to serve as police chief of Escalante and Sipalay cities in Negros Occidental.*
