MANILA, Philippines — The Bureau of Jail Management and Penology (BJMP) is planning to widen its reach through the “Electronic Dalaw”(e-Dalaw) program that will help inmates contact their family and friends without having to leave the jail premises, a report from Radyo Inquirer 990 AM said Friday.

The report quoted BJMP Director Rosendo Dial as saying that the project was in partnership with the Office of the Solicitor General.
