[edit]

The Southern Police District was established on August 14, 1974 when Senator Juan Ponce Enrile, then Secretary of National Defense and Acting Chairman of the National Police Commission approved the Rules and regulations governing the Metropolitan Police Force, as promulgated by the C, PC/INP for implementation and publication. Forming part of the Metropolitan Force (MPF) created under Presidential Decree Number 421 issued by the late President Ferdinand Marcos and in conformity with the provision of Headquarters PC/INP Letter Directive dated September 28, 1976, the Southern Police District had its operational jurisdiction over the cities of Makati, Parañaque, Las Piñas and Pasay.

On December 13, 1990, the Philippine Congress enacted into Law Republic Act 6975, PNP Law of 1990 signed by Her Excellency President Corazon C Aquino placing the newly organized PNP under the Department of Interior and Local Government with the aim of professionalizing the PNP. Under the new law, the National Capital Region Police Office embraces the five (5) Police Districts wherein one is SPD.

It is considerably the biggest District among the Five (5) Police Districts of the National Capital Region Police Office. It is composed of Six (6) Cities and One (1) Municipality, namely: Makati, Taguig, Pasay,Muntinlupa, Las Piñas, Parañaque and Pateros. It envelops the Southern Part of the National Capital Region which covers 233.2 square kilometers, with 317 Barangays and 11 Congressional Districts, having a total of 3,809,535 population based on the 2010 census, giving SPD a police population ratio of 1:1, 168.

SPD boasts in spearheading the drive to Performance Governance System (PGS) certification among the Districts of the National Capital Region Police Office (NCRPO). It’s conferment with the Silver Eagle Award during the initiated Status held on February 18, 2014 paved the way to open our doors to renew our commitment and dedication as public servants as we look back to the challenges that we successfully hurdled as a team.

These strides were made possible with the partnership between and among the Local Government Units, Non-Government Organizations, Community and Southern Police District grounded on the achievements of the past, continuously adapting to change, correcting systems and procedures, highlighting best practices and taking advantage of technological advancement as we continue to trod the righteous path for good governance, integrity and excellence in all aspects of police work.[2]
