During the operation, an undercover police officer successfully purchased suspected shabu from the suspect.

After the transaction was completed, the arresting team immediately converged on the area and arrested “Jojie.”

The seized items were turned over to the Parañaque City Police Station for proper documentation and laboratory examination, while the suspect was placed under police custody pending the filing of charges.

Great Majority Of Las Piñas City Residents Support Dismantling Of C-5 Quirino Flyover To Make Way For LRT-1 Cavite Extension

July 8, 2026July 3, 2026carlocarrasco

A survey conducted by the office Las Piñas City Representative Mark Santos revealed more than eighty percent of local residents favor the dismantling of the C-5 Quirino Flyover to make way for the delayed LRT-1 Cavite Extension project, according to a news report by the Manila Standard.

To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the Manila Standard report. Some parts in boldface…

Nearly 82 percent of Las Piñas residents support dismantling the C-5 Quirino Flyover to allow immediate continuation of the LRT-1 Cavite Extension Project, a survey conducted by the office of Las Piñas Lone District Rep. Mark Anthony Santos showed.

Santos said the survey, which gathered comments from various social media platforms, found that many residents favor immediate construction of Phase 2 of the 3.2-kilometer LRT-1 Cavite Extension, including the Las Piñas and Zapote stations, over retaining the P300.39-million C-5 Quirino Flyover.

Respondents said the LRT-1 Cavite Extension would provide greater public benefit by reducing travel time, easing traffic congestion and delivering more efficient public transportation for commuters from Las Piñas, Parañaque and Cavite.

Many residents said the temporary inconvenience caused by dismantling part of the flyover would be a small sacrifice if it allowed the railway project to move forward and deliver long-term benefits to the public.

They said completing the LRT-1 Cavite Extension matters more than preserving an infrastructure project they consider a major obstacle to the railway’s completion.

Let me end this piece by asking you readers: If you are a resident of Las Piñas City, what is your reaction to this development? Do you favor dismantling the C-5 Quirino Flyover to make way for the completion of the LRT-1 Cavite Extension project?

Chinese Fugitives And One Other Arrested In Parañaque City

July 7, 2026July 3, 2026carlocarrasco

Recently in the City of Parañaque, the Bureau of Immigration (BI) arrested three Chinese nationals – two fugitives and one overstaying individual – according to the announcement by the authorities.

To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the BI’s announcement. Some parts in boldface…

In line with the directive of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. to intensify the country’s campaign against transnational crime and prevent the Philippines from becoming a haven for foreign fugitives, the Bureau of Immigration (BI) arrested two Chinese nationals wanted in their home country for fraud and illegal gambling operations, and apprehended another Chinese national found to be overstaying during the same enforcement operations.

Immigration Commissioner Joel Anthony Viado identified the fugitives as Jiang Yin, 31, and Li Chuang, 34, who were separately arrested by operatives of the BI’s Fugitive Search Unit (FSU) on the evening of June 16 in Parañaque City.

The operations were conducted in coordination with Chinese authorities that provided intelligence information about their crimes.

During the operation against Li, agents also encountered another Chinese national identified as Wang Weixin, 32, whose immigration records showed that he had overstayed in the Philippines and was the subject of an active Hold Departure Order.

According to the Bureau, both Jiang and Li are wanted by Chinese police for allegedly participating in large-scale fraud and illegally operating online gambling activities through the “Qianneng Wallet” application.

Investigators in China alleged that the application was operated by a syndicate, which recruited Chinese nationals to facilitate illegal online gambling.

Authorities further identified the two fugitives as key members of two illegal gambling syndicates, where they allegedly served as supervisors and markers who extended gambling credit and facilitated betting activities.

Immigration records likewise showed that Jiang entered the Philippines in 2019 as a temporary visitor but failed to maintain a valid immigration status, rendering him an overstaying alien. Meanwhile, verification confirmed that Li was already the subject of existing Bureau blacklist and watchlist orders as an undesirable alien and fugitive from justice.

Let me end this post by asking you readers: What do you think about this recent development? If you are a resident of Parañaque, are you frustrated with the presence of Chinese criminals in the city? Do you think of crime and Chinese nationals whenever you hear the words Parañaque Renaissance? Do you think there could be thousands more illegal aliens living in Parañaque?

Operatives of the Bureau of Immigration (BI) arrested five foreigners during an operation targeting a suspected online scam hub in Parañaque City.

The operation was conducted in the early hours of 17 June at a condominium complex in Sapphire Seaview Park, Parañaque City following intelligence reports linking the location to an alleged “love scam” operation that reportedly victimized individuals through online deception and cryptocurrency-related schemes.

Nabbed in the operation were Chinese national Tang Shun, Malaysian man Chia Kong Loon, as well as Burmese nationals Kum Htoi, Myo Oo, and Kyaw Tint Lwin. They were apprehended after immigration verification allegedly revealed violations of Philippine immigration laws.

Authorities also received reports that some workers connected to the operation were being restricted from freely leaving the premises, prompting further investigation.

During the operation, one of the foreign nationals reportedly disclosed information indicating that multiple condominium units were being utilized for unlawful work-related activities. This led to the apprehension of the five foreign nationals.

Vietnamese National Arrested In Parañaque City For Performing Illegal Cosmetic Procedures

May 26, 2026May 29, 2026carlocarrasco

Recently in the City of Parañaque, elements of the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) arrested a Vietnamese national for illegal cosmetic procedures done in a clandestine clinic, according to a GMA News report.

To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the news report of GMA News. Some parts in boldface…

The National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) arrested a Vietnamese citizen for allegedly performing illegal cosmetic procedures at a clandestine clinic in Parañaque City.

Operatives from the NBI Special Action Unit conducted an entrapment operation on May 13 after receiving a complaint about an individual posing as a medical professional offering invasive procedures.

“Upon verification with the PRC, this individual is not a licensed medical professional and is not allowed to practice medicine,” an NBI agent said during a press briefing.

Authorities said an undercover operative applied for a liposuction procedure, which requires professional medical expertise.

“Liposuction is considered an invasive procedure that requires the expertise of a medical professional,” the agent added.

The suspect was arrested after operatives entered the clinic and found two Filipino patients who had just undergone procedures.

“They are still fresh from their medical procedures,” the NBI said, noting this confirmed active medical practice inside the facility.

Authorities also seized medical equipment used in the operation. The suspect is facing charges for violation of the Medical Act of 1959.

Investigators said the clinic offered procedures at around P40,000—lower than rates charged by licensed practitioners, which can range from P50,000 to P80,000.

Officials warned the public to be cautious of unusually cheap procedures and to verify the credentials of practitioners.

“Kapag napuna ninyo na mas mura, i-verify muna ninyo kung ito ay may registration, may permits,” NBI Spokesperson Palmer Mallari said.

(If you notice the price is lower, verify first if the clinic is registered and has permits.)

The NBI also flagged new tactics used by illegal clinics to avoid detection, including restricting patients from using mobile phones during procedures. According to investigators, this may be intended to prevent communication with authorities or accomplices during entrapment operations.

Authorities added that such operations have become more “compartmentalized,” making it harder for both patients and law enforcement to identify those actually performing the procedures.

Let me end this post by asking you readers: What do you think about this recent development? If you are a resident of Parañaque, do you feel angry about the illegal cosmetic procedures performed by the Vietnamese national before getting arrested? Are you concerned that there could be several patients who availed of the suspect’s illegal procedures? Do you think the suspect should be banned from returning to the Philippines? How do you think the clandestine clinic and the illegal procedures were set-up in the city in the first place? Do you personally know anyone who became a victim of the suspect?
