THE Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA) is urging the public to report drug-related activities, offering safe and confidential channels for whistleblowers.

According to PDEA-10 Provincial Officer Expedito P. Cardona, Jr., the province has seen a significant decline in drug presence, with the affectation rate dropping from 94.81% in 2017 to 17.4% today, affecting only 74 barangays.

To achieve a completely drug-free province, PDEA is seeking community support and providing hotlines for reporting prohibited drug users, sellers, and illegal activities while ensuring informants’ safety and privacy.

Reporting Channels:

- Operation: Private Eye: 0917-867-7332

- Alternative Globe/TM: 0995-354-7020

- Alternative Smart/TNT: 0931-027-8212

Cardona emphasized that reports can be made anonymously, and the agency treats all information with seriousness and diligence.

PDEA’s efforts aim to eradicate drug presence in Misamis Oriental, and community support is crucial in achieving this goal.

The agency’s safe reporting channels provide an opportunity for citizens to contribute to the fight against illegal drugs.

The significant decline in drug affectation rate in Misamis Oriental is a testament to PDEA’s efforts.

By providing safe channels for reporting, the agency is empowering citizens to take an active role in creating a drug-free community.
