Topic: Drug free in the Philippines - page 69. (Read 77887 times)

""Maxcell", the husband of my ex's sister was killed in late August by 6 gunmen. They asked his daughter (my cute niece Trisha) to go away, then they entered the Nipa Hut where he was watching TV with his daughter and he begged them not to kill him. They shot him 6 times. All his relatives were around to hear it. I was told this story by my ex. I live within a kilometer of where this happened.

He was cooperating with a corrupt policeman to deal drugs in our former squatter neighborhood. I had become aware this year that my ex's two sisters had gotten involved and were wanted by DDS. I visited them and urged the younger one to leave Davao immediately and go to the mountain of her mother's birthplace so she could detox and get sober (she was high on Shabu when I was talking with her).

It worked and we got her to Dubai to start working at the end of this month. So she escaped from this hell she was falling into.

"Maxcell" surrendered some weeks before he was executed, but the problem is the vigillantes apparently decided he wasn't sincere, or maybe the corrupt policeman had him killed for surrendering.

I suspect Duturte's attitude is that once a drug-infested criminal, then very unlikely to be reformed. And I think his vigillantes have the least tolerance for those who were helping shelter corrupt officials especially police.

You may wish to read my other comment about this.

Drugs have been a huge menace to my family and I dare say one of the reasons my ex and I are split is because of drugs. I don't use drugs ever, other than I did use painkillers and sleeping pills briefly but for more than a decade not at all. And I never tried MJ and never smoked a puff of any cigarette in my life. I did consume fair amount of beer and sugar in my 20s, but not at all for the past 2 decades.

He was elected by the people to do this. It is their country and their decision.

Given this - I still don't think such rude performances are warranted for a president. He can always say his point in a diplomatic manner. He is the president now, he cannot be the same man he was, people and children are looking up to him.

Yes probably his cabinet member focusing now in 24/7 infrastrature projects all over the country. The cost 7.9 trillion in 6 years. Duterte is plant infrasture for the next generation so that in the future the philippines is just harvesting for the profit of this plant. The children will thank him someday for sure. They will see what is the true achievement of this administration. Its like golden days of the Philippines.

Maybe you think that walking in streets during night without being raped, holdup and kidnap is possible now in Philippines, but it is not since there's still a little possibility but its ok. I really do like the way drug addicts surrender one by one but I think he should also be focusing not only on the criminals but he should also focus on improving our country's infrastractures and roads, etc. for the public to use.

No you are wrong man the war on drugs is not all about killings. Did you know that 700,000 drug dependents in just 100 days surrendered in the police. This is crisis in the philippines. And did you know that the streets are clean now. People are no w safe to walk in the streets during night without being raped, holdup and kidnap. That is why most of the filipino people like him. Only yellow minions, human rights group and media hates him.

Yes eventually this scenario is I want the most to happen because if the apparatus inside the country crushed then no more people go for illegal drugs because they are afraid in drugs now. And the war on drugs of the administration is success. Then prevent it will never happen again. Thats the simple way to stop drugs. That is why I like Duterte's way. Prevention is better the cure.

The country in which the drug trafficking has no future. Most important thing is not to let them spread around the world. Then they will be purified.

your mean if people drug not pay is free
alcohol is free no pay, this pay is goverment is true or not is my statement

There are relatives of drug suspects denied their loved ones are involved on drugs and that evidences that supports the claim are only planted by the police officials. But then records shows that months ago the suspect was once jailed becuase of drug trafficking.

I don't think he can kill the business here.

Although I think this campaign is having a somewhat ripple effect that people are starting to follow rules and become less corrupt

yes it will just reborn but still good to know that the president still working for a better country the drugs is one of the biggest problem
here in the Philippine i know by heart what changes happen after he got the position. good luck

It's actually good for a drug dealer in the Philippines because Durerte is eliminating their competition. Imagine running a Mc Donalds and the government is going after Burger King, Kentucky Fried Chicken etc

I believe they can eliminate drugs but i cant say 100%. I'll go for 97-99% There are still few people that can find a way to make and sell drugs. After they got killed, they will be a new one again to operate. Like endless but atleast almost a drug free community.

Yes, I suspect this is going to be abused, drugs as a cover. Potentially he will kill anyone that is against his personal interest: justice official, government employees, foreigners, ex-wives. Execution of foreigners will likely give the Philippines a lot of tension, damaging their economy and perhaps even war. I wouldn't not be surprised if tensions with China are going to rise.

I assume this is mainly a licence for people to murder each other without any particular reason and claim 'drugs'. Due process and stuff is rather boring and unsexy but it's kind of there for a reason.

free from drug addicts impossible it is demanded that enable supply and not supply that enable demand.

nope, he will make people torture each other first and then they will kill each other because their awarness will be not normal.

probably it will be like zombie land, just in my imagine

so it's not a good idea to free drugs, really. I hope the president will stop it.

I want to believe this is an action in the right direction because this is a social vice that have plagued the country for so long and even this have made the country know even across borders of this social menace. However, I still think this problem is more of a fundamental thing that goes to the root of the Phillipinnes and its not something that can be gotten rid of in the shortest possible time, but since there is  a president committed to this line of action, I believe the change is imminent...

Even China has an underground drugs market. Does the Philippines have more budget than China? What will the Philippines do different?

Until one of these drug lords start war with the nation... same thing in Mexico.

They are 2nd class citizen because they are kidnapped and fed drugs? 

Based on what we've witness this past few months according to his anti drug campaign, it is really effective. Many drug users and drug lords have already surrender because they fear President Duterte. That's why we all know that he can destroy this drug addiction in our country. Jus have faith in him guys. He can do it. He can change this country to a better one.
