Change is indeed coming in various parts of the country as ordinary Filipino citizens experienced the Duterte phenomena after the National Capital Region Police Office (NCRPO) head Director Oscar Albayalde confirmed that since December 16, 2016, no incident of pickpocketing or snatching was reported.
In an interview with the media, the NCRPO Chief stated that "No incident of pickpocketing or snatching was reported in Divisoria, considered as a haven for petty crimes during the previous administration.
During the previous years, based on records by the NCRPO, there were at least two to three incidents of snatching reported every day and the NCRPO believes this is due to the increased police presence in the area.
