Crimes and liquor industry

From Neraca

"Operation Cleansing" and its effort to eliminate criminals and repress the distribution of liquor has obviously been a relief for most of the people. But unfortunately, as widely reported by national newspapers, the Ministry of Trade stated that the government allows the liquor industry to continue distribution.

Indeed the liquor is intended for other countries, but who can guarantee some of it will not be illegally distributed in this country? Are the police and other authorities sure they can control this market? Will the government penalize illegal distributors heavily?

I am worried about the negative impact of liquor on the jobless people who are fond of getting drunk. They do not hesitate to fire their guns at their targets, and they even resort to violence and murder.

It is fine for the government to permit the liquor industry, but the police should enforce strict rules and action.
