The Presidential Proclamation No. 124 of 2001 declares the third week of November of every year as Drug Prevention and Control Week. In relation to this, the City Anti-Drug Abuse Council (CADAC) and its partner agencies are spearheading the week-long activities to increase awareness and understanding of the adverse effects of drug abuse not only on the health of our people but also on our social, economic and even the political development of our country.

The activity will start with a Motorcade on November 19, 2018, kick-off is 7:00 in the morning, together with a SIMULTANEOUS OBSERVANCE of the Drug Prevention and Control Week in schools, government agencies, and private companies. Your participation in increasing awareness would be a helpful factor in actively supporting the government’s efforts in combating illegal drug use and criminality.
That day, wearing “white shirt” will be the symbol of our support against illegal drugs. We also encourage our Panaboans to publish the activity on social media with the hashtag #PanaboKontraDroga.
For queries, kindly contact the City Information Office at 084 822 0287 or visit them personally at the 3rd Floor, New City Hall. Also, you may connect with us on Facebook at f/City Government of Panabo.
