    There's already a gov agency here that monitors and registers foreigners = the BI. And we pay for that, umm....errrrr.....privilege.
    Seems like overlap/redundancy.

    They tried this barangay thing a few years back,they came here and asked for details but it never took off . For a start the bgy are far too lazy here when there is no money involved.

    Millions of what kind of background checks? (2.4+ million tourists per year times every move to another bangaray plus residents) Registering how? Next he will want to implement a system so foreigners are tracked when they enter and leave a bangaray, sort of a Visa-Visa... cha-cha-cha

    And more great reporting "A total of 17, 638 were arrested for violating laws on illegal drug while 22 drug pushers were killed during encounter with authorities." Total drug arrests? Total foreigner drug arrests? In the country? In metro Manila?

    17,638 / 2,400,000(+) = much less than 0.7% crime rate. Justification for such a far reaching, expensive ordinance or just a great sound bite so people think your doing something?

    More nonsense, be interesting to see if they implement this ordinance when they don't bother with any of the other one's.
    They should get the police out of the police stations and on patrol (walking) in their areas of responsibility then they might have more idea what is going on.
