ダバオ地域の合計323のバランガイが、違法薬物が存在しない（Drug-free）バランガイとして認められた。フィリピン麻薬取締局（Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency 以下：PDEA）ダバオの Behn Joseph Tesiorna氏は、依然として310のバランガイで違法薬物の取引が行われている可能性があると述べた。
Drug-freeバランガイは、警察による評価と検証を受け、保健省やPDEAから薬物不使用証明書を受け取ることで認定される。Tesiorna氏は、Drug-freeバランガイとして認定を受けた後でも、違法薬物の活動が報告された場合、認定を取り消す可能性もあると言及した。
Tesiorna氏は、ダバオ市内のDrug-freeバランガイとして認定されているCalinan地区の6つのバランガイを例に挙げ、「これらのバランガイは人口が少なく、小規模であるため、薬物を排除するのは難しいことではない」とコメントしする一方で、人口の多いバランガイにおいて違法薬物の取引が行われている傾向があるとしている。
ダバオニュースの裏側へ！
Thank you for your continued support of Davao’s portal site “Davaotchi”. “Davaotchi” is an information portal about Davao that has been running for about seven and a half years since September 2016 with the aim of conveying the charms of Davao to Japanese people in Japanese and making them more aware of Davao. Thanks to everyone’s support, we have gained a certain amount of recognition, such as being featured in a magazine, and many people have started to hear the term “Dabaotchi”. On the other hand, we have prioritized the mission of conveying the charms of Davao to as many Japanese people as possible, so there is almost no profitability, and we have allocated the profits generated from other businesses to the site management, but we have no plans for the future. As a result of careful consideration of scalability and development, Davaotchi has decided to recruit supporters who can support Davaotchi in order to better manage the site. We considered charging for the site or introducing a subscription plan, but we wanted to deliver information about Davao to as many people as possible, so we decided to simply ask for support from Davaochi fans first. You can support us using PayPal or credit card (debit card) below. We look forward to your cooperation. See more news articles
