Klinika-Kaalaman, attended by 20 barangay tanods and officials from Brgy. Tibagan—one of BulacanSol’s host communities, was designed to provide village watchmen with essential knowledge and skills in maintaining peace and order within their respective communities.
This collaboration among BulacanSol, DILG, and PNP ensured a comprehensive training program for the said attendees, with topics including basic functions and traits of a barangay tanod, basic hand-cuffing techniques, crime prevention and investigation, emergency response and basic law enforcement, among others.

P/Lt.Col. Avelino G. Protacio II, OIC Chief of San Miguel Municipal Police Station further emphasized the important role of barangay tanods in their efforts towards crime prevention, peace and order, and public safety.
