Philippine National Police(PNP)

Hi,

I am Prinz Magtulis, a freelance journalist. I am working on a story about the PNP personnel detailed to the former and present vice presidents in the Philippines as bodyguards. 

In this regard, we would like to ask for data on the number of PNP personnel that were detailed as such from former vice president Noli de Castro to the current vice president, of if you have earlier data that you can share, that would also be great.

If the number has continuously changed throughout the terms of these vice presidents, we are wondering if we can just get the average or the total number for each vice presidents by the time their term ended? 

Thank you very much.
Prinz Magtulis
