44 VIPs in Boracay Asean meeting

 Forty-four senior and junior officials were expected to attend the Asean Summit meeting in this island resort from Feb. 19 to 21.

Most of the dignitaries will come to Boracay via the Godofredo P. Ramos Airport in Barangay Caticlan, Malay, while other will use the Kalibo International Airport.

Police were ready to secure the delegates but were fielding fewer officers.

A thousand officers will guard the ministers, according to Senior Police Officer 1 Nida Gregas, information officer for the Aklan Police Provincial Office.

The Philippines is hosting the Asean Summit in time for the association’s 50th anniversary.

“While we are fielding fewer police officers, we will be heavy on intelligence operations,” said Gregas. “So far, we have received no apparent threat to the upcoming Asean meeting.”

Cadets from universities in Manila will help the local police in security operations.
