FEW individuals in law enforcement exemplify the values of integrity, professionalism, and dedication as much as Police Colonel Ferdinand Del Rosario.
A long-time resident of Caloocan City, Del Rosario is a proud “Batang Kankaloo” who built a stellar reputation as an incorruptible officer and community-oriented leader.
Throughout his career, he earned numerous accolades for his exceptional service, both from the police force and private organizations, highlighting his commitment to public safety and social responsibility.
What sets Del Rosario apart is not just his achievements within law enforcement, but his unblemished reputation, which remains intact even after his retirement.
Known for his principled approach to policing, he retired with honor, confident in his legacy. Yet, retirement didn’t signal the end of his public service.
Instead, it marked the beginning of a new chapter as he sought to contribute to his community through politics, driven by a genuine desire to improve the lives of the people of Caloocan, especially its youth.
In the May 2025 midterm elections, Del Rosario will independently run for councilor in the 2nd District of Caloocan, with a strong backing for Mayor Dale Gonzalo “Along” Malapitan administration.
His platform focuses on enhancing the city’s existing peace and order initiatives, building on the solid foundation of safety and stability that Caloocan has experienced under Malapitan’s leadership.
Del Rosario’s experience in law enforcement provides him with a unique understanding of how to maintain and improve public safety.
Del Rosario’s vision for Caloocan goes beyond law enforcement. He seeks to address the root causes of crime, fostering an environment where peace and order are not just maintained but consistently improved.
His approach is holistic, aiming to create a city where all residents, particularly the youth, can thrive in a secure and supportive environment.
As corruption scandals often dominate the political landscape, Del Rosario stands out as a figure of integrity. His record of unwavering service and commitment to the people of Caloocan makes him a trustworthy candidate.
In the upcoming election, the people of Caloocan will have the opportunity to choose a leader who has spent his career fighting for justice, peace, and progress — someone with the experience and character to make a real difference.
