Long-time Barangay 2-A captain Carlos Garcia has kept criminals at bay in his barangay from the 90s until today

 

In the 1990s, one of the crime-prone barangays in Davao City is Barangay 2-A.

However, in 1994 such an unsavory tag ended when Carlos Garcia assumed as barangay captain of Barangay 2-A.

When he took oath as barangay captain in 1994, one of his main projects of Garcia is to clean his barangay from criminals and hoodlums.

Being a former barangay policeman (tanod) and bodyguard, Garcia was not afraid to risk his life in gun duels with criminals.

With his strong stance against criminality and drugs, he cleared his barangay of criminalities and is now safe from crimes.

His firm will to battle criminals and keep his barangay safe made him a barangay captain for many years until today.

Aside from his strong stance against criminalities, Barangay 2-1, residents loved Garcia due to his benevolent heart for those in need.

Under Garcia's leadership, the barangay hall of 2-A is open to all those who need help.

"Maski kinsa puede mangayo tabang sa barangay 2-A maski dli residente ug willing ko motabang nila kung naa ko ikabatang," Garcia said.

He said being a barangay captain is a task he takes very seriously since he loves serving his constituents, and he is happy that their trust is still with him many years since he became a barangay chair in their barangay.
