The San Juan City local government elatedly announced that all of its 21 barangays have been declared as fully drug-cleared by Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency on Thursday, Feb. 9 becoming the first city in Metro Manila to become 100 percent drug-cleared.
“21 out of 21 barangays have now been fully drug-cleared by PDEA. I am confident that by the end of tomorrow’s deliberation, San Juan City will pass with flying colors and will become the first city to get full drug clearance from PDEA. This is all through the combined efforts of our barangays and City Anti-Drug Abuse Council ,” Zamora said.
“Rest assured that we will continue and boost our efforts in our war against drugs under our Makabagong San Juan,” Zamora noted.
