22 February 2010 - The Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) lauded the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) for its recent arrest of four members of a West African drug syndicate which recruited Filipinos as drug couriers.
"This decisive action by Philippine law enforcement authorities should serve as a stern warning to those who have been victimizing Filipinos. It is also a reminder to our kababayans not to allow themselves to be willing victims in exchange for money," DFA Spokesperson J Eduardo Malaya said.
