In the fight against illegal drugs, the Misamis Occidental Provincial Anti-Drug Abuse Council (MOPADAC) approved the reconstitution of the council, financial and technical assistance for local anti-drug programs, and updates on barangay drug-clearing operations.

Security and peace efforts were also strengthened as the Provincial Peace and Order Council (PPOC) highlighted milestones in law enforcement, updated security deployment plans for the 2025 National and Local Elections, and approved the Asenso Misamisnon Drivers Education Program (AMODEP) as part of the Peace and Order and Public Safety (POPS) Plan.

The PPOC also provided updates on E-CLIP implementation for former rebels and pushed for local ordinances against Online Sexual Abuse and Exploitation of Children (OSAEC) and Child Sexual Abuse or Exploitation Materials (CSAEM).
