Surigao del Norte 2nd district Rep. Robert Barbers, chairman of the House Committee on Dangerous Drugs gave this warning to the Philippine National Police Sunday, the last day of Modified Enhanced Community Quarantine .
“Our police should be more vigilant and monitor strictly the movement of people under the GCQ, where more people will be out doing serious business while others might be out looking for ways of getting the new high in the time of COVID,” he said. The Mindanao solon believes that drug personalities lost billions of pesos in drug trade opportunities when COVID-19 forced the government to declare a lockdown in Luzon in mid-March, followed by similar lockdowns in almost the entire country as the contagion spread to the provinces.
“These drug syndicates have long prepared for this new normal and have planned out well their next moves amid the fear and confusion. While the people and our law enforcers are busy mapping strategies on how to avoid mass [gatherings] and activities, we might overlook the drug trade resumption,” Barbers said.
