I am attempting to locate the source of my information, buried in CZ-UB archives, changed computers and lost some bookmarks, but it was an announcement from the individual in charge of the PNP that they were buying CZ P-07s to equip the Force. If, as the linked article above certainly suggests, they couldn't PAY for it, that's not a problem of the supplier. No police force with money would be shorted sidearms, far too many available, and as pointed out, even in country. I think that's a finance issue, not a firearm issue.
Edit to add, here ya go,

I researched the PNP at the time, and it stated they were issued Glocks. That was in 2009, so that is a little less than three years ago, though I thought it was a wee bit longer than that. My bad on the timing.

Česká zbrojovka a.s. celebrated commercial achievements in the Philippines as well. The President of the Philippines Police Force, Mr. Jesus A Verzosa, who participated in the entire championship using the CZ 75 SP-01 Shadow pistol, finished this shooting challenge and stated that the results of the championship helped him conclude the final qualified decision as to which manufacturer should be selected to supply pistols for the Police Force of the Philippines. His words were further supported with a confirmed order for CZ 75 P-07 Duty pistols.
