During his meeting with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz in Berlin, Germany, Marcos said the recalibrated anti-narcotics campaign seems to be effective, even though the proliferation of illegal drugs in the Philippines remains a problem.
Marcos bared that he had a “productive and insightful” meeting with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz during their bilateral meeting at the Federal Chancellery in Berlin, Germany.
“I am in solidarity with our Muslim brothers and sisters in the country and all over the world on the occasion of Ramadan,” President Marcos said in his message.
In a recorded interview while in Melbourne, Australia, Marcos said the war games between the Philippines and Australia would help improve Manila’s defense and security capabilities, as well as disaster preparedness.
Marcos made the statement, as he backed the Office of the Ombudsman’s decision to impose a six-month preventive suspension on NFA administrator Roderico Bioco, NFA assistant administrator for operations John Roberto Hermano, 12 regional managers, 27 branch managers, and 98 warehouse supervisors.
