In a recent statement, President Duterte reaffirmed his commitment to the war on illegal drugs, emphasizing that his policies are designed to protect the innocent rather than to punish. He characterized drug addicts as victims in need of rehabilitation rather than as criminals. Duterte urged the public to understand that the eradication of illegal substances such as shabu and cocaine is vital for the nation’s peace and harmony. He highlighted that drug abuse tears apart families and communities. Since his mandate began, the President believes he has adhered to a careful methodology, combining law enforcement with the construction of rehabilitation facilities in Davao City, aimed at helping those addicted to illegal drugs. He argues that fear of death or incarceration should not be the sole approach to combating drug issues; rather, complete rehabilitation is essential for reintegration into society. Furthermore, Duterte warned of the rising rates of drug-related crimes and reiterated his focus on self-defense for law enforcement. He maintains that success or failure in his drug policies falls on his shoulders, underscoring his deep concern for the future of the Filipino people and the nation’s safety from the drug menace.
