This wasn’t just a routine resolution passed inside a provincial hall.
It was a thunderous salute.
The Sangguniang Panlalawigan ng Sorsogon fired off Resolution No. 22-2026 to honor one of its own — PMGEN ANDRE P. DIZON, now officially a Police Major General and Director of the Philippine National Police Academy (PNPA).
And make no mistake: this wasn’t charity applause. It was earned.
Promoted to the two-star rank, GEN. DIZON represents what every badge is supposed to stand for — discipline, grit, and leadership forged in the trenches. The Provincial Board didn’t hold back, citing his professionalism, integrity, and unwavering commitment to public service as reasons for the commendation.
Translation? He didn’t just climb the ladder. He built it rung by rung.
From the streets to the academy halls, GEN. DIZON has shaped not just operations — but future leaders. As head of the PNPA, he now molds the next generation of police officers who will carry the weight of peace and order on their shoulders. That’s not just a position. That’s power with responsibility.
And Sorsogon knows it.
The resolution, dated February 4, 2026, reflects provincial pride in a homegrown leader who didn’t forget where he came from. In an institution often tested by public scrutiny, GEN. DIZON stands as proof that rising through the ranks can still mean rising with honor.
This recognition also sends a bigger message: local governments and the PNP must move as one. Peace and order aren’t slogans — they’re battlegrounds. And leaders like GEN. DIZON is expected to hold the line.
In response, the newly promoted Major General thanked the provincial leadership and the people of Sorsogon, reaffirming his commitment to “Serbisyong Mabilis, Tapat, at Nararamdaman” under PNP Chief PGEN Jose Melencio C. Nartatez Jr.
But beyond the formal words, the message is clear:
The stars on his shoulders are not decorations.
They’re expectations.
And if his track record is any indication, GEN. DIZON isn’t slowing down. He’s gearing up.
Sorsogon didn’t just honor a promotion.
It honored a standard.
