In the picturesque town of Maramag, Bukidnon, change is stirring! On December 31, 2024, an important event unfoldedโ€”the Turnover and Assumption of Office Ceremony. This wasnโ€™t just another event; it signified new beginnings and reinforced commitment to community safety and service. Spoiler alert: if youโ€™re keen on police community relations, youโ€™re in for a treat!



The event took place in the cozy atmosphere of the LGU Conference Room, adorned with local insignia and a sense of unity. As the clock ticked toward a new year, excitement buzzed in the air. PCOL Jovit Lontac Culaway, the Provincial Director of Bukidnon Police Provincial Office, took center stage to oversee the proceedings. His presence was comforting, assuring everyone of a smooth transition.

As we witnessed PLTCOL Bryan M. Panganiban, the outgoing Chief of Police, pass the baton to PLTCOL Alexander E. Eugenio, the incoming Officer In-Charge of the Maramag Municipal Police Station, we felt the gravity of this moment. Panganiban has dedicated years to ensuring the safety of Maramag, leaving behind a legacy of trust and solidarity. Transitioning to a new role, Eugenio carries that torch, ready to illuminate new paths for community engagement.



Now, letโ€™s chat about the attendees. The ceremony wasnโ€™t just about swapping badges; it brought together key figures like Municipal Mayor Hon. Atty. Jose Joel P. Doromal and renowned Life Coach Pastor Lorenzo P. Lib-on. Their presence emphasized an essential aspect of the ceremony: community collaboration.

The mayor, known for his visionary leadership, extended his support to the new chief. His words echoed hope and determination, urging everyone to rally around their police force. Life Coach Lib-onโ€™s involvement added a unique touchโ€”encouraging everyone to embrace change and foster a supportive environment. After all, a strong police-community partnership enhances overall safety and camaraderie.



When you attend a ceremony like this, you might expect the usual formalities. But oh boy, did this one break the mold! The air was filled with a mix of anticipation and warmth. There were heartfelt speeches, laughter, and even some teary eyes as Panganiban shared fond memories from his time in office. It was a reminder that behind uniforms, officers are humans, passionate about their roles.

Transitioning to the ceremonial part, we saw the symbolic handover of the badgeโ€”an emotional moment! The entire room buzzed with admiration for the outgoing chief and excitement for the incoming one. Everyone sensed the weight of responsibility being passed down. This wasnโ€™t just an exchange of leadership; it was about carrying forward a mission to foster community trust and safety.



As we left the ceremony, a sense of optimism lingered in the air. With PLTCOL Eugenio stepping in, the community is looking forward to innovative measures and fresh strategies to tackle local concerns. His prior experience promises a seamless transition and the hope of enhancing police-community relations. Letโ€™s be real; this new chapter is all about collaboration and addressing the evolving needs of the citizens.

In conclusion, the Turnover and Assumption of Office Ceremony wasnโ€™t just a formal eventโ€”it was a celebration of community, resilience, and hope. As we embrace this new leadership in Maramag, letโ€™s continue to support our officers and work together for a safer future. Cheers to new beginnings, and remember: change brings possibilities!
