CARJACKING incidents decreased by 16 percent this year compared to 2005, according to an official of the Philippine National Police (PNP) Traffic Management Group (TMG).

There were 1,000 vehicles stolen this year and at least 271 of them were recovered, said Chief Superintendent Errol Pan, PNP-TMG director, in his speech Monday during the agency’s 52nd founding anniversary at Camp Crame, Quezon City.

Pan said they neutralized six carjacking syndicates in the country.

He also said there was a 50 percent decrease in the number of hijacking incidents (trucks are stopped and their goods stolen) this year compared to 2005.

Pan credited their “accomplishments” to “the cooperation of the civilian community in reporting car thefts.”

“We [in the PNP-TMG] have implemented innovative approaches in the neutralization of ‘carnappers’ and hijackers that led to their neutralization,” he said. “We are confident that with our intensified campaign against these criminals, they will face their untimely defeat.”

Among those who attended the PNP-TMG anniversary celebration were PNP chief Director General Oscar Calderon and Department of Transportation and Communication Secretary Leandro Mendoza, who was the guest of honor and speaker.

:fyi: Yes... carnap/jack incidents are down for this year... especially for the 2nd half of the year.

And to those that are doubting the said report... do you have any statistics to back it up? :evillaugh

[HIFI]

Nope....no stats, here. However, I think it is rather one-sided....it's actually self-prasing.

Baka mas accurate ang data from Insurance companies.

Sa mga ganyan, dapat maraming sources, para mas realiable (ng konti).

tingin ko nga down ngaun coz carjackers are only zeroing in on one profitable target model, the Fortuner. hindi na worth the risk yun ibang models.

[gearspeed]

Nasabi din sa 24oras yan na bumaba ang carjacking incidents. Ang importante ngayon mahuli na nila mga carjackers na yan.

hmmmm... sabihin na naten totoo. but a 16% drop would translate to a only dozen or so cars.

eh kala ko ba 5 syndicates ang napasara nila? baka small time lang yung mga nahuli nila. asan na kaya yung mga big fish?

[nerbyoso]

ows talaga?! palagay ko nagkasakit yung isa sa mga carnappers..hehehe!

[jasprit]

Down na nga sya compared dati. Di lng ganoong ramdam ksi nga 16% lng it means kng 1000 160 lng binawas dapat mga 60-70% para ramdam talaga.

[HIFI]

It's too little (% drop).....and too late (sa mga victims).

[reniram]

I think it's more logical to know improvement % in recovering carjacked vehicles, since PNP cannot prevent carjackings/carnapping anyhow.

Carjacker's these days seems only particular for certain types/makes of vehicles and so data/records are down.
