GENERAL SANTOS CITY: Government
authorities destroyed some P6.5-million worth of marijuana plants in
a ceremonial burning held on Monday in front of the municipal
gymnasium in Malungon town, Sarangani Province.
The ceremonial burning
spearheaded by the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA) marked
the second largest marijuana load seized in Central Mindanao. The
first was a plantation raid in 2003 that yielded P3-million worth of
marijuana at the triangular boundaries of South Cotabato, Sarangani
and Davao del Sur provinces, officials said.
