MANILA, Philippines — In his message to retired Philippine National Police chief Gen. Rodolfo Azurin Jr., President Ferdinand 'Bongbong' Marcos Jr. made no mention of the former police chief's efforts against illegal drugs during his stint. While Marcos recognized Azurin's accomplishments in peace and order, particularly in the campaigns against terrorism, carnapping, loose firearms, child abuse, gambling, smuggling, and other illegal operations, there was no mention of illegal drugs. He, however, thanked Azurin for his 'leadership and his service' to the PNP and to the country.
