On January 12, 2017, Master Del Pe and his cleanLIFE Team in collaboration with the Mayor of Bauko, Mountain Province, Philippines, Dr. Abraham Akilit, proved that the long waited victory against the war on drugs isn't too far, as they successfully graduated 55 drug surrenderees in Bauko under Master Del Pe’s anti-vice and anti-addiction program, cleanLIFE.
"The cleanLIFE training has been so impressive because our target of rehabilitation was over a 6 months period, but we were able to do it in one and a half months! I am a witness; because every time there was a healing activity I joined it... and enjoyed it!
- Mayor Abraham Akilit, Bauko, Mountain Province
cleanLIFE is an international program designed by Master Del Pe, which is implemented by his non-profit organization, MDP Foundation to help heal people with vices and addictions, so that they can stay out of trouble and have healthier and productive lives. Before introducing it to the Philippines, Master Del Pe successfully conducted cleanLIFE in Harris County Department of Corrections Jail in Houston, Texas where he rehabilitated many women convicts who were addicted to drugs and at Tihar Jail in New Delhi, India, which is inhabited by the most notorious convicts and is the largest prison complex in South Asia. Today, Master Del Pe brings cleanLIFE to the Philippines.
In response to President Duterte’s “War on Drugs”, Master Del Pe and Mayor Akilit launched the cleanLIFE program to help rehabilitate the 168 drug users and pushers who have surrendered to the Philippine National Police (PNP). Mayor Akilit and the Bauko Local Government Unit (LGU) selected 58 of these surrenderees in a pre-qualifying profiling from October 11 to November 6, 2016. Master Del Pe, the designer of the cleanLIFE program gave an orientation to the selected group and started the first healing and training on November 7, 2016. The last session of the cleanLIFE program’s first phase was held December 19, 2016 followed by the graduation of 55 out of the 58 participants who successfully finished the cleanLIFE program.
"I really observed that the people who underwent this program have really changed, and not only their behavior, but also their day-to-day activites - not only in their hygiene, but in how they will talk and show respect to people they encounter. We really recommend that the cleanLIFE Project will be the one who will cater again for the next batch."
- Luis Datangatan, Chief of Police, Bauko, Mountain Province
Many of the participants have gone home to their families and careers to experience their re-entry into their social roles. Those without work have been interviewed by employers for placement. During the last cleanLIFE session, Master Del Pe invited some potential employers to interview the jobless surrenderees. The employers were amazed by their performance, new attitude and vitality to such an extent that at least 15 participants were accepted to be hired on the spot when employers saw the positive outlook and vigor of the surrenderees after the last healing and rejuvenation session. All the efforts of 2 months have paid off. This is the real graduation and the proof of cleanLIFE’s effectiveness and efficiency. Master Del Pe designed cleanLIFE to not only focus on the de-addiction process as the finished line but also the employability advantage and the positive change in the drug addicts’ inner values and character.
