PINURI ni Manila Mayor Honey Lacuna ang Manila Police District (MPD) at ang PNP Anti-Cybercrime Group (PNP-ACG) sa raid na ginawa sa tinaguriang scam hub noong Oktubre 29 sa Adriatico, Manila.

“I was informed of the raid as the operations got underway. That was proper for operational security. The raid required skillful and closely guarded intelligence operations, plus exact timing.

That the desired results were achieved is proof of how professional the MPD is against crime,” pahayag ni Mayor Lacuna.

Ayon kay Mayor Honey, suportado niya ang direktiba ni Pangulong Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos, Jr. sa posisyon nito laban sa lahat ng POGO sa Maynila na hanggang Disyembre 31, 2024 na lamang.

Ngayon pa lang pwede ng magbalut-balot ng mga POGOs para magsara na ng tuluyan at huwag ng hintayin pa ang katapusan ng Disyembre upang hindi na lumawig pa ang kanilang paghihirap.

“They can voluntarily go to city hall to start work on the documents winding down their operations in the city. They can tell the owners of the buildings and houses they occupy that they are ending their rent or lease agreements.

They can start serving notices to their employees that their employment contracts will end very soon.

They can coordinate with our PESO offices to inform the city hall of the Filipino employees who need to be assisted in looking for new jobs,“ sabi pa ni Lacuna
