ANGELES CITY -- Residents of an entertainment district here were asked to join the anti-crime organization set to be formed to address criminality and illegal drugs in the area.

Tony Mamac, chairman of Barangay Balibago, made the appeal to his constituents a few days after the national and local polls where he lost in the vice mayoralty race.

Mamac said the group will be called the Balibago Anti Crime Task Force.

"Crime prevention and solution is everybody's concern, therefore, it is a must for every Balibaguenos to join us in a voluntary basis in the formation of this organization," he said.

The main objective of the project is to achieve a crime free barangay, according to the village chief.

"Although we have already organized our Bantay Bayans, there is still a need to organize a counter intelligence volunteer as a complementary force and will form part in our Crime Prevention Program," Mamac said.

Volunteers must be high school graduates/college level, willing to undergo drug tests and seminars on crime prevention, must not be involved in any crimes nor convicted by any court, and can share his/her time in any crime prevention activities.

Mamac encouraged interested parties to call or text him at 0977-268-7684.
