More CCTV cameras sought for Boracay

 Additional security cameras are sought for this world-famous beach destination.

The local government of Malay is planning to purchase more closed-circuit television (CCTV) cameras.

Rowen Aguirre, Boracay Island administrator, said that Malay Town Council has given Mayor Ciceron Cawaling authority to purchase CCTV cameras that will be monitored round-the-clock by a surveillance team.

Boracay only has 18 CCTV cameras that are monitored from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily.

The additional cameras will not only be used to deter terrorism threats and other crimes, but will also be used for disaster management and emergencies.

Last week, the Joint Task Force Boracay was launched to strengthen measures against terrorism and kidnapping.

The group brings together the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP), Philippine National Police (PNP), Philippine Coast Guard (PCG), Bureau of Fire Protection (BFP), and the Malay local government.
