Drug free in the Philippines

[chrmn27]

I don't think the Philippines will be a drug-free nation. Although today's administration is really persevere in terms of eradicating drugs in the country, there are still who will be untamed. I'm afraid that after this administration our country will be back to what it was before  I hope not.

[Cheng-Cheng]

President Duterte is doing his best to eradicate illegal drugs in the Philippines, it is up to oneself to help him fulfill such, he is merely a leader and being a leader is a hard job. Without the constituents participation, it will be impossible fulfilling the eradication of illegal drugs.

[lhadygreen]

He's just doing what he said before the election in a way he knows.
By the help of God, he might not eliminate it totally, but he can
minimize it.

I admire every anti-drug President. The harm done to the family by drugs is enormous.

I believe it can be done, and more people will support him.

I think that any totalitarian or authoritarian regime is not viable. It is against human nature. I heard that he organized real massacre for drugdealers no judge just shoot. It opens a way for corruption more than helping

[rockyboy]

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.

He can do it for sure because he is hardworking or making effort on his campaign. I wish for the best of him. Even if he is rudeness or bull headness sometimes. Atleast he is sincere all the time.

I really wanted to see that.  A nation that is free from drugs.  I believe  that he can do it because there are many supporters that strongly  believes him.

The drug peddlers were shot dead only in cases where they refused to surrender and opened fire on the cops. But obviously, knowing how corrupt the police in the Philippines is, there may be a few incidents of fake encounters.

He kills only the small time methheads w/o legal charges. The Big druglords are his buddies and are free to do their thing. There is more drug now in the Philippines because their president allied himself to China the biggest meth source. The president is killing the competition. He was a mayor on one of the cities for a very long time and his city still drug ridden. His son is a triad drug lord.

[landonb]

No way the president method is proven to fail in many other countries. Instead of stopping the source of drugs (China) he allied himself with it and kill the small time addicts illegally. Their peso is in his 11 year weakest level under him.

I think Pres. Duterte can't solve drug problem alone in the  the philippines if the people himself will not support his agenda but i think many people are willing to follow what  Duterte adminstration is now implying many drug addicts are now surrender to authority and some were killed by policemen because they fight the police men. And put them in prison along with protector of drugs.

For my opinion Pres Duterte cant stop the drugs in the Philippines, because how he can handle and see all the place in the Philippines? even the police and higher official using drugs?pushing drugs? Maybe he can stop other place but not all the place in the Philippines.

[eyesninja21]

First of all we have to give a big thanks to president Duterte because all drug lords, pushers and users are lesser. On the other hand, it is difficult to deny that he is getting results for the benefit of the majority. Many drug pushers have surrendered on their own volition.

I commend the President for trying to solve a rampant problem that the past presidents didn’t really tackle seriously, and for being brave doing so. He even publicly named the politicians who have been protecting drug operations, and exposed how big the problem is with massive drug operations that involve people from Mexico and China helping each other.

The president is sincere on his war against drugs but the death sentences is too has,it should be turn to life or jail terms

[innocent93]

The fight against drugs is a serious problem in each country, even in the developed ones, now i guess it is a question of the means with which he wants fo fight against drugs.

[Marjo04]

Our president can do it maybe not 100% eliminated but he did everything to less drug users day by day.but he cant donit alone we as people.of the philippines must help him

[Ethreyes]

For me this war against drugs is really good..  But there are a lots of problem arose in philippines that needs to address... example the corruption. This is very rampant in the Philippines I think the government should need to act also to reduce this problem to lessen the poverty in philippines.

[Piggymonster]

I believe President Duterte can do it and as a filipino, we will support him all the way. He is a man of action, the right guy we needed to make the change and make the Philippines a better and safer place to live in.

Well decriminalization isn't a miracle but it is intellectual way further legalization and real control measure implications.

I think basic concern should be to help people, not to destroy their life.

The problem is that although decriminalization works well in the developed nations, it can have a negative impact in the developing nations such as the Philippines. Rather than giving a positive output, this can result in an increase in the number of drug addicts and a rise in the drug-related crime rate.

I agree with my brother it is not only drugs war there should be massive war on poverty in the country
