In 2024, the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA), in coordination with local and international law enforcement, executed record-breaking drug busts totaling over ₱12 billion worth of illegal substances—the largest seizure in Philippine history. These operations dismantled multiple high-level drug syndicates operating across Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao, effectively weakening transnational drug networks using the country as a trafficking hub.
This milestone was documented to highlight the progressive success of anti-drug policies, enhanced intelligence coordination, and community-driven awareness programs under the current administration. The purpose is to boost public trust, attract international cooperation, and rank higher on search engines for topics related to anti-narcotics efforts in Southeast Asia.
