MANILA, Philippines (Xinhua) - The government has been pushing for a more updated and centralized system in accounting crime incidents to increase efficiency and accuracy, a senior government official said today.

Department of Interior and Local Government Secretary Mar Roxas said that the Philippine National Police (PNP) officers must "spend less time calculating and more time analyzing" in approaching crimes.

Roxas, whose office has jurisdiction over the PNP, said his office is eyeing to have a stable and secure digital data management system by March this year.

"Let a consistent, robust, and world class system or program with internal sub-checking do the work for you," he said referring to the software that will aid the police in consolidating crime report.
