The Davao City Police Office (DCPO) reported it has not recorded any untoward incident during the opening of the Duaw Davao Festival on June 21.
DCPO Spokesperson, P. Cpt. Hazel Tuazon, said in an interview with the Madayaw Program over the city-owned Davao City Disaster Radio (DCDR) that the conduct of activities during the opening of the Duaw Davao was generally peaceful.

The DCPO continues to remind Dabawenyos to cooperate with the security cluster and to always follow the safety and security protocols of the city. CIO
