MANILA, Philippines — Interior Secretary Jonvic Remulla said there are “indications” that Philippine National Police (PNP) Chief Gen. Rommel Marbil may remain in his post until June, arguing replacing him would be “ineffective” after the agency’s reshuffles.

"This series is not just about the two teams playing; it's about reviving the spirit of hockey in Delhi. We hope this will inspire more young players from the region to take up the game," Harmanpreet stated in a press release issued by Hockey India.

Hockey India President Dilip Tirkey expressed his enthusiasm and stated: "This bilateral series against Germany will be a remarkable showcase of world-class hockey. Both India and Germany have a rich history in the sport, and this series will give fans an opportunity to witness an intense competition between two of the most formidable teams in the world.

Marbil was named the country’s top cop in April 2024, and he is expected to retire this February, amid the official election period for the 2025 midterm polls.

“Tapos na ang rigodon ng personnel, so magiging ineffective kung maglalagay ka ng bagong Chief PNP (The reshuffle of personnel has been finished, so it would be ineffective if we install a new Chief PNP),” Remulla argued.
