BACKGROUND: The rendition of Funeral Honors is a time-honored tradition accorded to the deceased members (active or retired), both in the Philippine National Police and the Armed Forces of the Philippines as a farewell recognition for his/her honorable ser- vices rendered to the country and to the organization. It is also rendered during inter- ment of deceased government officials and VIPs as a ceremonial paying of respect in recognition to their unselfish service rendered to the nation As classified in PNP Memorandum Circular No. 2018-018, the persons entitled to PNP Funeral Honors are PNP personnel who died while in the active ser- vice, retired PC/INP personnel who opted to join the PNP after the enactment of R.A 6975, PNP personnel honorably separated from the PNP service, government officials and VIPs and other personalities as directed by the President, SILG or the C, PNP. As an organization, the Philippine National Police is committed in rendering dignified funeral honors and services to all persons entitled thereto as a way of show- ing to the family, dependents and loved ones of the deceased that the government cared for and values their significant contributions. However, in some instances, there are confusions arising from the following 10f 13a) The family of a deceased retiree does not know whom they shall seek assistance for the provision of appropriate honors. Most of the time the family of a deceased PNP retiree especially those who had been retired long ago is not aware as to where and whom to seek assistance for the provision of appropriate honors to their departed loved one. Only those PNP retirees whose family member knows somebody in the PNP are accorded funeral honors and services as requested. Other PNP retirees whose family members are not familiar with the processes in the PNP often end up burying their dead without any funeral honors accorded to them by the PNP. b) OPR in the transport of the remains from one place to another; c) Rank requirement for pallbearers based on the rank or position last held by the deceased; and d) Office/unit responsible in the conduct of funeral honors to be accorded to the deceased persons entitled thereto. 3.
