00:00Because smoking is now prohibited in the country, a Malaysian national also tried to push illegal drugs.
00:08He was arrested for a by-bus operation in Paranaque, targeted by John Consulta, X-Cluser.
00:17In the surveillance video of the NBI-NCR, the Malaysian national was seen riding the target of the operation.
00:24What did I do there?
00:26He was brought to the undercover in Shea, which contains a few grams of cannabis.
00:31The five grams?
00:35When the money was received and the suspect started counting, the NBI-NCR agents approached.
00:42What's that?
00:43Oh, I think you're framing me, sir.
00:49Get down!
00:50Down, down, down!
00:51Get down!
00:53The 30-year-old Malaysian, who was employed by a Pogo company here in the Philippines, was arrested for the operation.
01:00The suspect recovered the five grams of shabu, which is worth P30,000.
01:05According to the NBI, the Pogo employees started looking for other ways to earn money in the country.
01:11Moreover, their operation is now prohibited.
01:14Because of our beloved President's insistence that Pogo is gone, these foreigners are now entering other lines.
01:27Pogo has now switched to drug-pushing.
01:31Aside from being an employee of Pogo, the arrested Malaysian is also an interpreter.
01:36He also speaks Tagalog.
01:38He started selling drugs to Pogo employees and to Filipinos.
01:44That's why he's now being sold to the units of the NBI.
01:47We will monitor where the Pogo workers who lost their jobs are going, whether they are foreigners or Filipinos.
01:58We are trying to get a statement from the suspect who is now in jail in the NBI detention facility in Bilibid.
