Drug free in the Philippines

[gracia0023]

Can the president of the Philippines can do it. Well I like what his doing in his campaign. It is very amazing program and very work program in the country. Many were discipline now because of him.

His advocacy of eliminating drugs in the country was very remarkable. People have to understand these things.

1. The President can't do it alone. Sad to say, but there are people who only thinks of their personal interest. Instead of supporting the president, what they do is to accuse and make things worst.

2. Opposing the president won't help. There are higher rank politicians who opposes the president's advocacy. I still don't understand why. If only the .
government officials were united as one. His campaign or advocacy won't be hard to achieve.

3. If every Filipinos follow his advocate and support him all the way. A drug free Philippines will be accomplished. But I guess, its hard or even impossible to achieve.

I'm looking forward on that day that I wont be afraid to walk in the streets during evening because I feel secured.

This will be impossible if there's so many people who opposes his campaign. The problem is there is division in the government because of political parties. Even if the president wants to eliminate it in short span of time, if there are so much antagonist, this will be hard to achieve. The reality is that there are some government officials who are involved in drug trade. They are even making the scenario worst.

Best president that we have. Now Im proud to be Filipino.
I hope someday all medicines are free for all who needs it not only for poor families but for all patients who need it for their treatments and maintenance.

Are you agree in martial law ? i think our president now will declare also in future that like what marcos did, just to make his presidency more longer?
Our president was good as of now because he  lessen the problem about drugs but how can citizen upgrade ? if our environment was falling.

What difference is it going to make? Close to 7,000 people are dead from attacks by the cops and the vigilante squads, even without a martial law. Do you think that the situation is going to get any worse if Duterte announces the implementation of the martial law?

It is very rare when citizens are proud of their president. The main thing that he fulfilled all that he promised people. The situation with the Philippines is very eloquent in the fight against the underworld. Probably this was the first slogan of the pre-election campaign.

A temporary lull in the proliferation of drugs have been achieved, but I don't know for how long this is going to last. And Duterte can't allow the vigilante squads to massacre people forever. He needs to step in at some point, and it will be interesting when that happens.

I think that this is not a lull, and just the mafia regrouped under new conditions and acquired new contacts in the police. Then everything will be exactly the same, but the statistics will speak on the decline. Corruption is invincible.

You can't expect to have a drug free country 100%. Look what happened after they stop tokhang because of those extra judicial killings as several people who previously engaged in drug activity gone back on doing the same things again for the reason of there's no one monitoring them. Unless the crusade for drugs continues it can be controlled but not totally eradicated.

Only the state should act quite differently. If the government controls but does not prohibit Drugs, then there will be a different situation. Of course, the authorities can not allow this officially, but only so you can keep the system in your hands.

As least to an extend put a control on it so not to let The Philippines turn into a narco-drug countries like Mexico or Columbia. That's why they are doing operation Tokhang 2 because they are going at drugs again. Even countries with strict drug laws have people still doing drugs so you can't totally eradicate it in our society. There are still millions of Filipinos who are still drug dependent, if the government can minimize it then it will be good for the country I guess.

I pretty agree with this statement. President of the Philippines has the affirmation to do his job to make his country from drugs, criminals. I believe in him that he can do that, he is doing his best to make country proud. Drugs are one of the causes of people being committed in a suicide or being criminals. He wants to cleanse the Philippines from those. People would become well disciplined and to have fear to do wrong. He wants his country to become the best among others.

Good intentions pave the road to hell! Nothing good Duterte will not do such methods. Now he had turned away from the entire civilized world. The only friends he has are China and Russia. There are dictators like him. Ask the citizens of those countries much they like their rulers.

It's true, you can not do many things with such friends, you will rather do it, only it will not do for the benefit of your people. It was not necessary to speak so sharply towards Western countries.

It is true that Duterte has managed to strengthen the foreign relations of Philippines, by bringing Russia and China on his side. But at the same time, the Western nations remain as Philippines' allies. Donald Trump has shown appreciation towards Duterte.

Since op start this topic 6months ago and if you see the result of duterte campaign. Many druglord are in a jail and other was die . Even the little pusher and user are also in there. His campaign is very effective to the philippines become peace and sucessful country. And duterte want to return the death penalty to warn people to dont do bad things and thats good because many people who are criminal or else will not do any bad things .

That's what our current society is, they will make their news viral that people will share what they think and if they can relate to that. It's always been like that, and there are no media that has no bias. I admire him for his attitude and character; he doesn't let the media stray him, he's showing his true colors, unlike the past presidents that create a facade that makes us, the people in the Philippines, stupid.

Agree on it.

No one trusts the mainstream media nowadays. If the MSM had such a hold in the Philippines, then Duterte might have been overthrown in a military coup by now. Or at least, his popularity ratings could have dipped. We are well past the era, where media had a strong influence in the election outcomes and popularity ratings.

Mr . Rodrigo Duterte Do his best to become philippines free in drug. Many drug lords , pusher and even the user of illegal drugs was kill by the pulis and some of them are now in jail. But as of now many pusher are still selling illegal drugs in many place. But Im very thankful because the police and duterte do their best to less drug addicts here in my country. I hope duterte will continue what did he start . Change is coming.

I've heard on the news earlier that President Duterte failed to "finish/kill" the Drug issues in the Philippines,
I hope next months , he will be successfully end and make Philippines a drug free country .

How can you say he failed, knowing that his term would end only on 2022.  He still have five years to do it.  Besides progress have done and results were seen.  Less crime were listed now considering that addicts are now in jail or six feet below the ground.  I feel much safer now.  I do not think that he will or he can wipe out drugs in the Philippines but it would be like so rare and would be in endangered level.  Hope and pray that his pursuit for drug free Philippines before his term ends will come true.

This is kinda hard to achieve. Even now, our government is doing their best to make our country drug free. This is such an ambitious move but it's a good one. We may not totally take out drugs from our country, but atleast we have taken some serious move to make this country better and give other people a chance to re live their life away from drugs. This is quite a long journey but hoping for better days.

[Sadlife]

The war on drugs campaign is impressively working and turned the piece of shit country into a peaceful and progressing country now the people of this country feel more safer unlike before that robbers, kidnappers and killers does their job even in day light and public places. Corrupted officials are now being busted and behind bars unlike before that could freely steal peoples money. Shabu laboratory being busted and shutdown thousand of drug addicts already surrendered druglords in prison or they get killed. Now laws are being implemented to discipline the citizens i could proudly say that the Philippines is now prosperous.
