Duterte promise to the solve illegal drugs activity in 3-6 months. Can he fullfill his promise? Can he do it in this short period of time. I hope he will be successful at the end of the day. Life must go on. So live our life to the fullest. Its Philippines time so we can work together to change the Philippines for the better country.
i hope duterte can solve illegal drugs activity in its given period. As we can see in the news many drug lords and drug syndicate has been captured and crime rate decreses.
So far the signs are good. Most of the drug kingpins have either fled the country or have been apprehended. The number of drug addicts has declined, and so has the crime rate. The challenge is now to maintain these levels.
But at what cost? Sure, the dealers may have left, but the sourcing (China), is still right there, producing precursors by the tanker full. We killed a lot of people, most of which were addicts and not dealers. We militarized the police against the populace, degraded civil liberty, orphaned children. And although the level of users might be down, one thing occurs to me.
What happens during the next drug epidemic? He won't be in office forever. Will all those people have died in vain? Because this won't be repeated in a modern country, this is literally genocide, even if it's unintentional.
I do not think you are living in the Philippines that is why it is easy for you to say this things. We feel safer now more than ever. People around the world would not mind when innocent people dies in the hands of these drug addicts. But would care and more concerned when drug addicts were killed and concerned about the abandoned families. We are okay and we will support our President. Mind yourself.
