SomblingoWomen and Children Concern Desk PNCO, Police Precinct 5,
General Santos City Police Office
Brgy. Tambler, General Santos City


What the teaching profession lost, the PNP heartily gained. PO3 Somblingo has passed the licensure examination for teachers after completing 72 units of BS in Education, but decided that law enforcement was her passion. Over the last nine years, her record in crime solution reflects some of the more significant achievements of the police in trying to promote and protect the rights of women and children. In focusing her talent and energies in pursuing serial rapists, incest sex offenders, and pimps, PO# Somblingo has helped turn the tide against abuse and exploitation of women, especially minors, from the clutches of prostitution and a life of hopelessness and shame. Just as significantly, she has transcended cultural boundaries to work for the resolution of similar crimes among members of indigenous communities.

PO3 Somblingo has parlayed her impressive credentials and accomplishments into an expanded role in the fight against crimes committed on women and children. Over and above the usual partnership with the concerned government agencies and NGOs, she personally conducts training programs and holds regular dialogues with parents, school officials and teachers, local government representatives, barangay workers, and civilian volunteers to solicit the widest participation of all community stakeholders in the important mission of providing the youth and abused women with opportunities for a better life. Among the projects she has initiated include sports festivals and educational assistance in the form of financial grants and the provision of school supplies.

Before turning her attention to a possible career in education, PO3 Somblingo completed undergraduate work to earn a degree in BS Commerce, major in Accounting. She is the widow of a fellow police officer and single-handedly raises an 11-year old son.
