The proposed ‘Cheng Law’ would ban anyone under 18 from entering, staying in, or working at bars, clubs and similar venues, require all patrons to show a government ID, and force establishments to stop serving and help intoxicated customers from driving. Violations would be fined ₱200,000 the first time, ₱500,000 the second, and could lead to closure on a third offense. The law would take effect 15 days after publication, with detailed rules to be issued within 90 days by the DILG, DTI, PNP and LTO.
