Brig. Gen. Roderick Augustus Alba, who is from Bacolod City, is the new director of the Police Regional Office 7 (Central Visayas).
Alba was previously the Public Information Office chief of the Philippine National Police (PNP).
“I am confident that Central Visayas is in good hands with General Alba at the helm. His competence, commitment and work ethics bespeak his leadership approach, and so, I entrust him to lead the more than 11, 000 strong personnel of Police Regional Office 7 to raise the bar of excellence in public service,” PNP chief Rodolfo Azurin Jr. said.
Alba, a member of the Philippine National Police Academy class of 1992, had previously served as the officer-in-charge of the Negros Occidental Police Provincial Office.*
