Oplan Paglalanse is an adventure story arc of the Philippine comic strip series ''Pugad Baboy'', created by Pol Medina Jr. and originally published in the Philippine Daily Inquirer. This particular story arc lasts 23 strips long and ran in during the month of January 1994. In 1996, the story arc was reprinted in ''Pugad Baboy 7'', the seventh book compilation of the comic strip series. This marks the first appearance of the Walang Payat Gang, a vigilante group formed by Utoy, Paltik, Joma, and Polgas. The Walang Payat Gang again makes an appearance in a later story arc, ''Kulto''. ==Synopsis== The officers at the Left Turn Police District's inflow of bribes are slowing down as many motorists are beginning to obey traffic rules. Patrolman Gagancho tells his colleague Patrolman Durugas that it is just the Filipino trait of ''ningas cogon'' because abiding the law may be one of the motorists' New Year's resolutions and they may later revert to their old ways. The district chief Colonel Magti then launches Oplan Paglalanse to make sure the motorists will. Oplan Paglalanse is done as follows: Traffic lights are reprogrammed so the yellow light will not light up. One-way and two-way streets are reassigned. Parking and No Parking zones are redesignated, and so are tow-away zones. Fees in the use of pay parking areas are also hiked. All of this are done without any notice to the motorists to confuse them. This will be implemented for three months, after which when the motorists get used to the new rules, the rules are changed again. The new "project" pays off as bribe collection is on the rise again. To add insult to injury to the motorists, Colonel Magti even tells his men that rather than buying more tow trucks, they will use wheel boots so the vehicles to be towed will not go anywhere while the tow trucks are busy. However, the district officers are beginning to be victims of their own scheme. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Oplan Paglalanse」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
