THE promise of Philippine National Police (PNP) chief Ronald de la Rosa to quadruple the salaries of police retirees should not be taken seriously, some senators said Monday. AdvertisementsSen. Panfilo Lacson considered the PNP chief’s statement a mere sound bite because it would be very difficult to implement. The PNP chief also denied proposing that police retirees should not be granted a pension increase. I didn’t do such a thing,” de la Rosa said in a speech in Camp Crame on Monday. Wait for me to become president,” de la Rosa joked.
