INTRODUCTION
1. BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
The officials and enforcer of barangay must to play a vital role in regards to
curfew ordinance and they need to do practices that need to enforce it effectively,
ordinance. The barangay council for the protection of children is tasked to take charge
of the concerns about the minors, and also by continuing the program to their
advocacy in their barangay, Tacda (2015). There’s some program in barangay that
will inform the barangay officials and enforcer of what procedure and proper ways,
and the barangay official must to follow a process in regards to curfew ordinance,
therefore the enforcer must to assure that they will obey the rules and regulation of
enforcing curfew ordinance, Johnson (2016). Many programs are establishing and
some of them are the programs for children, that will only focus on the issue
regarding the minor under the age of 18. According to the proposed Ordnance
like the situation of a young student walking at the streets, and going home at always S
C
late because of school matters, then the barangay police apprehend him, the first thing H
O
that the barangay police should ask, is why he’s still walking at that time, then O
L
barangay police must to know what are the things that must to consider; the
imposed on children for the violation of the curfew hours they shall release instead,
brought minor into their residence, however there’s some instances the minor
involved in conflict during curfew hours, they are required to attend the intervention
seminar or programs, such as counselling and other group activities for the violators,
and also for the parents to help them parenting their children, that also happen in
some barangay.
The barangay officials should ask the child’s information and the given location;
Two barangays are both need to submit a report to the barangay captain about a given
incident. Enable to have a best practice in enforcing curfew ordinance, you need a
barangay council for the protection of children (BCPC), must to temporarily place the L
A
minor violators in holding area while authorities try to find their residence, parent or G
R
guardian, or relative, then the officials must have an initial contact with juvenile O
violators. The barangay officials and police are involved at the different approaches H
I
G
to any circumstances; barangay officials and police, are called to deal with something H
that ought not be happening and about when someone had better do something, so S
C
most importantly that we do something to prevent conflicts in the streets during the H
O
O
curfew hours.The barangay will be aware that some regulations and procedure are L
observed by the community, during their enforcement; the community are also
Klein (2012) explained that curfew ordinances are policy tool available to local
police departments. Some of the evidences he gathered supports that curfews are
effective at reducing both violent and property crimes committed by juveniles below
strategy for controlling juvenile crime. Public opinion was the cause behind the use of
curfews, and the primary basis for this support that curfew really make streets safer.
L
Juvenile crime and victimization still remain unchanged after the implementation of A
G
curfew laws. R
O
H
I
Preusser, Williams, Lund and Zador (1990) underscored that several cities have G
H
curfew ordinances that limit the late night activities of minor teenagers in public
S
places including highways. According to them, the curfew ordinances were associated C
H
O
with 23% reduction in motor vehicle related injury for thirteen to seventeen years old O
L
as passengers, pedestrian, or drives during the curfew hour. City curfew ordinances
are like the statewide driving curfews; it can reduce motor vehicle injury to teenagers
Adams (2007) implied that juvenile curfew is a crime control strategy in which
the popularity waxes with perceptions of the crime problem. Before, an intense
Johnson (2016), There’s some program in barangay that will inform the barangay
officials and enforcer of what procedure and proper ways, and the barangay official
must to follow a process in regards to curfew ordinance, therefore the enforcer must
to assure that they will obey the rules and regulation of enforcing curfew ordinance;
Many programs are establishing and some of them are the programs for children, that
will only focus on the issue regarding the minor under the age of 18. L

According to Tacda (2015), officials and enforcer of barangay must to play a vital
H
role in regards to curfew ordinance and they need to do practices that needed to I
G
enforce it effectively by the strategies of the team. The barangay council for the H
protection of children is tasked to take charge of the concerns about the minors, and S
C
H
also by continuing the program to their advocacy in their barangay. O
O
L
Kine (2011) implied that any teenager caught out after can face a fine, depend
upon the specific laws of the town. The major growth of problem is the juvenile
crimes, that involve violence: curfew ordinance will impose to solve juvenile
problems, in keeping young people off the street, to avoid trouble in streets.

4. OBJECTIVES
This study aims to know, which between the two barangay do their practices and
obligations by the use of data that we gathered, that will show the findings of their
status in curfew ordinance, by means knowing the level of their good practices to
have a comparative study between the two barangay and also to determine, which
among the practices that the barangay officials and police are usually neglected. The
result of our findings will determine how active the two barangay in enforcing the
curfew ordinance; the study will compare which is a good implementer of curfew
L
ordinance, between the barangay 177 and 185. A
G
R
O
unfortunately study found, that many of them are inactive in enforcing, because S
C
there are few enforcer, and Some barangay police did not practice a good service H
O
in regards to curfew enforcement, and the barangay become inactive in enforcing O
L
the curfew ordinance, most of them just enforcing it but not often; the
demographic of the barangay hinder them to enforce the ordinance in their whole
barangay, in fact, not all are coverage by their surveillance. The other studies
show that having a low level in doing good practices are not effective, therefore
the study must to find out the strengths and limitation of the two barangay, in
Research Questions
1.What are the good practices that the barangay community observed in their curfew
ordinance?
a. Proper procedure
b. Responsibilities
2. what is the status of barangay 177 and 185, regarding implementing curfew ordinance.
3. Which is a good implementer of curfew ordinance between barangay 177 and 185
The utmost purpose of the study is to know the level of their strategies and good L
A
practices, among the barangay 177 and 185, to help barangay official to distinguish G
R
the strength and their limitations, that based on the rate of barangay community, so O
that they will know and aware of the things that they should improve in their H
I
G
practices. Our role is to gather data using survey for the assessment, evaluate and to H
analyze the difference among the two barangay, to inform and promote the right S
C
procedure and better practices in enforcing curfew ordinance. The evidence that use H
O
in comparative study, will provide data to the future researcher to extend the study, O
L
perhaps the future researcher will study the effectiveness of best practices in reducing
juvenile crimes, and they can also study the impact of best practices towards the
barangay.
Our study cannot show the specific level of effectivity in their practices in
connection to juvenile crimes, but rather, it will only show the result of level
regarding the rates of the community; comparative study between barangay 177 and

5. DATA ANALYSIS H
I
G
Barangay 185 is rated by the community as good in forcing strictly the curfew H
ordinance conversely to Barangay 177 the statistic shows that they are rated fair, in the
second question since the Barangay 185 conducted a seminar often times the Barangay S
community said that they are very good in giving information about curfew ordinance C
through seminar, but Barangay 177 having a poor level in conducting a seminar to a H
parents and guardians. In terms of surveillance of CCTV as a helpful tool in their O
enforcement the statistic shows that the Barangay 177 installed many cameras in their O
L
Barangay, it means they are good in monitoring CCTV surveillance while the Barangay
185 is rated as poor in statistic because the community said that they are few CCTV to
their Barangay. The responsibility of Barangay counsel for protection of children
(BCPC), transferring those curfew violators into DSWD when there are no parents or
guardian will pick them up the two Barangay are both shows the same level in rated as
good by the Barangay community. Community observed that Barangay 177 and
Barangay 185 have the same level rated as good in imposing penalties upon the parent or
guarding in curfew violations, on the other hand Barangay 185 rated as very good in
making agreement regarding to curfew ordinance and Barangay 177 rated as good.
In doing proper procedure the general weight average is interpreted that Barangay
185 and Barangay 177 are both rated as good in apprehending minors during curfew
hours. In arresting minors who involved intoxication during curfew hours, Barangay 177
are good in it, while the Barangay 185 got listed general weight average rated as poor.
Inspected the both Barangay is good in avoiding violence in arresting during curfew
hours. In negotiation between Barangay officers and violators are rated the Barangay 185
and 177 having a same good level observed by the community, also the rest proper
procedure like in turn down over the custody to parents and guardians that released by the
Barangay counsel for protection of children BCPC also from refraining from using any
fire arms unless it absolutely necessary, in this proper procedure that stated above shows
that both Barangay followed it as the community observed.
In overall we computed the percentage of respondents are computed as 32.8% shows that
they are very good in regard to doing their responsibility, while 38% of respondents
shows that they are good the other 17.6% rated as they are fair and lastly the remaining
11.6% of respondents rated as poor level of doing their responsibility it regards to curfew

ETHICAL CONSIDERATIONS I
G
H
The reliability of our study is based on the curfew ordinance law of Caloocan city,
which indicate the rules and regulations that need to be followed by the curfew S
enforcer; therefore, our survey questionnaire was based on the factual curfew C
ordinance law. H
During the survey, it is randomly choosing the respondents who are able to O
answer the survey questionnaire, therefore we only approach those are not too much O
L
busy in many things and the researcher respect some of them who do not want to
answer the survey questionnaires. After we gathered data, we consulted to have some
good advice from the teachers who teaches statistics and probability, additional to
that, the researcher used a scientific calculator to have an accurate way of computing
the general weight average and the percentage of respondents who rated among the
different level.
The Researcher cited the author and the publisher of an article, also the researcher
give acknowledgment to those who are involved and participated in this study.

2. CONCLUSIONS O
L
Barangay 185 is much observed in their proper procedure, through the help our statistical
result, that they are active in curfew ordinance, however they are lack in doing their
responsibilities, similar to the result of barangay 177, they are also observed in doing
proper procedure, but they need to improve their enforcement in doing the
responsibilities.
The two barangay are both follow the protocol in enforcing curfew ordinance that the city
implemented.
Based from the statistic that came from the community of barangay 177 and 185,
the good implementer between the two barangay, is barangay 185; from the question
above, the majority rates that their barangay is good in implementing the curfew
ordinance, additional to that, barangay 185 is very good in doing proper procedure,
conversely to barangay 177; on the other hand, barangay 185 is very good again in the
overall rate of the level in doing their responsibility. The majority of respondents are
computed into percentage that the result shows that the barangay 185 is said to be a good
implementer than the barangay 177, which proved that the general weight average is
similar to the findings of percentage of respondents and their answers.
The information was given to the researcher by the community of barangay 185
that the captain of the barangay held a meeting to give them an idea, and will definitely
affects the responds of the people on their barangay; on how the curfew ordinance
enforce in their barangay, since they are also aware and have an idea, they easy for them
to rate the practices of the barangay officials in their barangay, nevertheless the people in
community are not always stay in their home, but our researcher team ensured that our
data is came from the person who live near in barangay and they have a background
