Antonio Montojo Jr., chief of operations of MADAC, said the mascot Kapitan Madac is a typical Pinoy superhero who is courageous, strong, honest, and cheerful.
"He represents Makatis humane way of giving a second chance to drug offenders and their families through the Handog Kalinga Program," Montojo said.
This move also signifies the effectiveness of the agencys anti-drug programs, which were chosen as model programs not just in the country but in Southeast Asia as well.
Coinciding with the launch of Kapitan Madac is the blessing of the three-story MADAC Building, which will house the Makati Citys Anti-Illegal Drugs Special Operations Task Force and the MADAC Task Force and staff.
Makati Mayor Jejomar Binay and Vice Mayor and MADAC chairman Ernesto Mercado will lead the twin ceremonies.
