Three Chinese nationals were apprehended in Angeles City by the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA) during a sting operation, resulting in the confiscation of approximately P3.4 million worth of shabu.
The successful buy-bust operation took place late Monday night in the Balibago village, specifically at the Shanghai Building along MacArthur Highway.
The arrested individuals have been identified as Bin Da, 23; Hei Xiao; and Gua Xiao, 20.
PDEA Region 3 reported that the suspects were highly cautious during the transaction, and it took the agency a month to set up the drug deal.

The three Chinese men are set to face charges for violating the Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act of 2002.
