PDEA, PPA renew alliance to
curb drug smuggling in ports
QUEZON CITY -- The Philippine Drug
Enforcement Agency (PDEA) and the Philippine
Ports Authority (PPA) have renewed their
alliance to curb trafficking of illegal drugs and
controlled chemicals through the ports.

PDEA Director General Aaron N.
Aquino and PPA General Manager Jay Daniel R.
Santiago signed the Memorandum of Agreement
(MOA).

“Under the agreement, the two parties
are enjoined to continue utmost cooperation
and coordination to conduct an intensive and
unrelenting campaign against drug smuggling
while encompassing the organized and
systematic implementation of both the anti-drug
and ports laws,” Aquino said.

The two agencies have also agreed to
hold regular meetings and dialogues for the
purpose of improving cooperation, facilitating
coordination and fast-tracking the prosecution
of personalities involved in drug-related cases in
the seaports.

The MOA is an extension of the previous
agreement between PDEA and PPA signed
on November 7, 2012, except this time, the
new agreement includes additional provisions
prescribing PPA to provide office spaces for
PDEA in the country’s major seaports.

“Under the agreement, PDEA will
establish offices for PDEA Seaport Interdiction
Units in 13 key PPA-controlled seaports
nationwide, including K9 units and space for
K9 kennels,” Aquino said, adding that PDEA
operatives assigned to the interdiction units will
be involved in close scrutiny of cargoes entering
the country and will also sit beside the ports’
X-ray technicians to help in the detection of
smuggled illegal drugs.

Among the provisions stated in
the agreement, PDEA shall establish a
comprehensive information collection plan to
obtain information on illegal drug activities
from sources at all levels. Also, PDEA shall take
the lead role in the joint investigation of cases
resulting from anti-drug operations in ports, and
provide trainings for PPA K9 units on illegal
drug detection to enhance their capability.

Meanwhile, PPA pledged to assist the
PDEA in collecting, processing, and analyzing
information on illegal drug activities by
submitting periodic reports to the PDEA and by
sharing information in trafficking methods in the
ports; support the PDEA in designing a strategic
surveillance and monitoring system that will
detect the shipment of illegal drugs using
the ports; assist the PDEA in the collection,
establishment, and maintenance of database on
suspected frequent travelers involved in drug
trafficking and criminal activities as well as
shipping companies suspected for smuggling
dangerous drugs and/or controlled chemicals,
among others.

“Beside airport and parcel interdiction,
we also need to focus our efforts in protecting
our seaports from becoming transit and dropping
points for large volumes of dangerous drugs and
controlled chemicals,” Aquino noted.

According to the country’s census, the
Philippines, with 7,107 islands, has one of the
longest coastlines in the world. It is estimated
that more than 60 percent of the population lives
along the coast.

“Beside air travel, international drug
trafficking organizations have to go by water to
cover the Philippine drug market. Hence, the pact
sealed between PDEA and PPA is a step forward
in securing our waters from drug trafficking,”
the PDEA chief added. (PDEA/SDL/JEG/PIA-

IPOPHL urges heightened respect for
intellectual property rights
TAGUIG CITY -- The Intellectual Property
Office of the Philippines (IPOPHL) enjoins the
government and private sector to strengthen
respect for intellectual property rights, amid a
changing innovation and enforcement landscape
that influences how intellectual property is
created and consumed

“The Intellectual Property Office of the
Philippines is committed, now more than ever,
to promote intellectual property and protect
intellectual property rights. Our duty to ensure
an intellectual property-friendly environment
that rewards creativity and innovation is the best
incentive for Filipinos to harness intellectual
property for national development,” IPOPHL
Director General Josephine R. Santiago said.

“Promoting a culture that respects
intellectual property, one that provides fertile
ground for innovation and creativity is a
compelling competitive advantage for the
country that spurs economic development. While
IPOPHL is at the forefront of this advocacy,
creating a conducive atmosphere that respects IP
can only come about through concerted efforts
of all stakeholders from public and private sector
and Filipino consumers,” Santiago said

The month of April was designated as
National Intellectual Property Rights month by
virtue of Proclamation No. 190 s. 2017, passed
by President Rodrigo R. Duterte to align the
country’s intellectual property rights celebrations
with global intellectual property festivities.

The push to boost Filipinos to be
more creative and entrepreneurial—essential
in building respect for intellectual property
rights—is reflected in the theme of the high-
level forum, “Itaguyod Ang Yamang-Isip Tungo
sa Kaunlaran”

The National Intellectual Property
Rights month will culminate with the high-level
Intellectual Property (IP) Convergence 2018
Forum on April 26, where Santiago will address
more than a hundred delegates from government,
private sector, and academe on the current state
of the Philippine intellectual property landscape.

The National Intellectual Property
Strategy (NIPS) will be a core topic of discussion
in the Convergence Forum. NIPS is the
government’s main action plan in creating a robust
intellectual property regime, with strategies
proposed for regulation, administration, and
enforcement of intellectual property

A slate of activities is scheduled for
the month, geared towards building respect for
intellectual property through the twin objectives
of (a) enforcing compliance to intellectual
property laws and (b) bolstering Filipino
creativity and innovation, all done in partnership
with the academe, law enforcement units, the
judiciary, and local industries.

IPOPHL will be conducting stakeholder
dialogues, awareness-raising events, and two
seminars involving intellectual property experts
from ASEAN, among other activities, as part of
the celebration.

IPOPHL will have as its honored guest
World Intellectual Property Organization
(WIPO) Director General Dr. Francis Gurry
to tackle the way forward on implementing a
national strategy on intellectual property against
the backdrop of the 4th Industrial Revolution
(4IR).

The 4IR, the stage of technology that sees
the blending of past and emerging technology
and pervading all forms of human activity, can
be a boon or a bane for the intellectual property
system. The 4IR has given rise to a wave of
patents for ‘smart’ devices, but it may similarly
lead to novel, tech-enabled ways of pilfering
innovations and creations. (IPOPHIL/PIA-NCR)
