The Municipal Anti-Drug Abuse Council (MADAC) in partnership with the Liga ng mga Barangay (LnB), conducted a "Strengthening of Barangay Anti-Drug Abuse Councils (BADACs): Capacity Enhancement" Seminar on May 21, 2021 at the Rooftop, Municipal Building, Castillejos, Zambales. Attended by the eleven (11) Barangays yet to be cleared in drug clearing, the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA) Zambales' Agents Meryl Lyn Antonio and Provincial Drug Clearing Officer Marlou Ordoño reiterated the parameters and documentary requirements needed.

 In his opening remarks, LnB President Romeo D. Calimlim II, encouraged the eleven (11) barangays to take drug clearing seriously as this will serve as their legacy to their barangay.

Also discussed during the activity were the challenges and hindrances in the preparation of the documentary requirements. PDEA, PNP and DILG representatives provided guidance on the issues and concerns presented by the barangays.

MLGOO Sheryl Ann Q. Dungca shared that it is high time to focus on drug clearing of the eleven barangays since full support is given to them by the PNP, PDEA, DILG and the MADAC Members. She also shared that activities such as monitoring of the status of the Barangay Drug Clearing Folders will be done regularly. Series of follow-through activities are also scheduled until all barangays are cleared of illegal drugs.

Hon. Mayor Eleanor D. Dominguez expressed her support to the campaign against illegal drugs and pushed all barangay officials to double their effort in their endeavour to be a drug-free community. She also shared that by next year she will increase the allotted budget for anti-illegal drugs activities in order to fully realize their goal of having a drug-free municipality.
