As Typhoon Francisco gathered force over the Philippine Sea, the Philippine National Police chose not to wait for the storm to speak first. Under the directive of PNP Chief Gen. Jose Melencio Nartatez Jr., emergency and disaster response units were placed on active duty nationwide — a deliberate act of anticipation over reaction. With Wind Signal No. 1 already raised across Batanes, parts of Cagayan, and the Babuyan Islands, the work of moving people to safety had begun before the storm reached its peak, a reminder that preparedness is itself a form of protection.
