MANILA, Philippines — Hundreds of boxes containing lung supplements, antirespiratory illness medicines and antibiotics were seized in a Parañaque warehouse that reportedly supplied medicines to Chinese workers.
The National Bureau of Investigation raided the warehouse in Barangay Vitalez, Parañaque City, on Wednesday.
Ross Galicia, chief of NBI Task Force Against Illegal Drugs, said the warehouse was like a “one-stop-shop” for Chinese workers.
The warehouse also supplied appliances, mattresses, even sim cards and soap. Chinese nationals Wang Jin Qi and Cai Chui Bao who were arrested in the raid will be charged with violating the Food and Drug Administration law, Consumer Act and the Pharmacy Law.
