WASHINGTON: Crimes and accidents at Cebu ports can now be monitored and documented with the installation of 117 closed-circuit television (CCTV) cameras. Some have been placed in strategic areas from the Cebu International Port (CIP) to Pier 1.
Senior Supt. Glenn Sarador, Cebu Port Authority (CPA) chief of police and officer-in-charge/manager of the Port Safety and Security, said 69 cameras were purchased for P9.072 million. Of these, three have a zooming capability of approximately 350 degree. “These three big CCTV cameras (are) called PanTilt Zoom Television or PTV. These have effective range, which is longer than the other CCTV cameras,” Sarador said.
