The Philippine National Police (PNP) has allocated P63 million for the transfer of the Maritime Group headquarters from Camp Crame
Maritime Group Regional Director Supt. Rollen Ariño said they are just waiting for the go-signal since the matter has already been approved by Camp Crame
The Maritime Group is eyeing to build its headquarters at a cove in the coastal barangay of Bolong, 32.60 kilometers east of this city, which is an ideal harbor place.
Barangay Bolong is also near to the 11 Island group and Sacol Island which is being used by rebels and pirates as jump off point of atrocities and stop-over haven in traveling from the Sulu archipelago to Central Mindanao and vice-versa.
Ariño said they have transferred the regional headquarters last month from the shore of Barangay Baliwasan
Earlier, they maintain a station in Barangay Rio where Moro National Liberation Front (MNLF) rebels landed at dawn of September 9 and laid siege in this city.
