Davao Light and Power Company

One of Davao City Police Office (DCPO)’s newly established stations, Police Station 18 (PS 18), with its office along J.P. Laurel Avenue, received on September 8, two prefabricated container vans from Davao Light and Power Co., Inc. (Davao Light) and its social development arm, Aboitiz Foundation, Inc.

PS 18 was in need of additional office spaces to efficiently carry out its commitment to the community it serves. The power utility responded to the need and provided the facilities that will be used as the National Police Clearance Office and Women and Children’s Protection Desk.

Police Colonel Alberto Lupaz, City Director of DCPO expressed appreciation on behalf of the more than two thousand personnel of the DCPO. “This is a big help to capacitate the station in the performance of one of our functions. With that, thank you very much”, said PCol Lupaz during the turnover and blessing of the facilities.

Davao Light President and COO Rodger Velasco said that the company believes in public-private partnerships. “The DCPO has been our long-time partner and we are always grateful for their service. They perform a vital role in the community and they deserve our support”, said Velasco. He also mentioned that the company is proud to be part of DCPO’s success and added that the distribution utility hopes that the facilities will be of great contribution to law enforcement and the maintenance of peace and order in the city.

Davao Light, an AboitizPower subsidiary, aims to advance business and communities by providing solutions that pave the way for the safety, security, and development of its franchise area covering the cities of Davao, Panabo, and the municipalities of Carmen, Dujali, and Sto. Tomas.
