Abstract:

This study examines the Integrated National Police as it is presently organized and studies its operational employment in Philippine government efforts against Communist insurgency. Recent developments in the Philippine local police system have proved the police have a significant role in the overall government counterinsurgency operations. While the traditional role of providing effective and efficient police service is the INPs main contribution to the effort, the police manpower resources and the inherent popular support they enjoy suggest greater role in counterinsurgency operations. Given the adequate administrative, operational and logistical support, training, and the proper leadership at all levels of command, the local police as a national organization could be a very effective force in operations against Communist insurgency in the Philippines.
