A Position Paper on War against Drugs

By: Janrey RizadaIntroduction

Drug is the best thing that will ruin your life. It is the hardest trouble of our government
and the worst problem of our country. “Say No toDrugs”, avoid drugs because it can destroy
your own life and can be destroy the life of others and also the community where you belong.We can prevent the
drug abuse in this country if we cooperate in our President Dutertecampaign stop the drug dealers in the Philippines.
The Oplan Tokhang that gives the drug usersa second chance to have a better life and start a new life. War on drugs
campaign by Duterte
’s
Administration
is a good plan and an active campaign by the president. It is a better way toresolve the drug addiction
and the crimes that are involved in using illegal drugs. This papershows the pros and cons of the issue on war against
drugs. I am agree of the campaign ofDuterte on war against drugs because it is the only way to resolved the drug
addiction and tostop producing illegal drugs, as a whole, we observed that in previous administration, thegovernment
has no effective solution to this problem. Now, its
Duterte’s administration that
slowly resolved the illegal drugs and will continue unt
il the last day of Duterte’s will.

Counter Arguments
When the war on drugs had been started, the Extra-Judicial Killings often referred to on
the archipelago by its acronym “EJK”. A poll released on April 20, 2017 by Social Weather
Station found that 73 percent of respondents are worried that they or someone they know couldbe fall on the on the
victim to an Extra-Judicial Killings.It is not a valid evidence that the war on drugs have a bad sabotage to manage to
kill theunwanted or petty crimes and als
o no bad record persons. The country’s top broadcaster, ABSCBN, reported in early August 2016 that 603 people
had been killed since Duterte’s May
election. Over 4,000 were arrested while over half a million drug users turned themselves intoauthorities.

The war on drugs of Duterte’s Administration was committing a Human Rights violation.
Just because on the issue on Extra-Judicial Killings that the Police and PDEA are committing
crimes and violating the Human Rights due to obeying the President’s order
to kill the drugrelated persons.It does mean that
wars on drugs of Duterte’s Administration are
bad. It really needs a
“walk your talk” ordered by Duterte to accomplish the mission to kill the drug addicts who wants
to fight the Police during Oplan Tokhang. It does not commit Human Rights violation becausethe police are properly
have a warrant of arrest and told carefully the drug addicts to surrender.
Arguments
Helps create a place that is drug free. A drug free area or community may seemimpossible given the present situation,
but it is achievable as long as everyone does their sharein the fight against drugs. War on drugs should not only
involve the government and localauthorities, but also friends and family of drug users or sellers.Lessen drug-related
crimes, when drug addicts will not have access to illegalsubstances, they will not experience highs or hallucinations
 that will drive them to commitcrimes. They would not need to steal either so they can buy drugs. Put simply, without
thepushers there will be little no users.
Despite international criticism of the Philippines’ deadly anti
-drug war, the majority of
Filipinos continue to support president Duterte’s campaign that killed thousands of mostly poor
drug suspects. The SWS survey, involving 1,200 adult respondents across the country, found in
March that 78% were satisfied with the administration’s performance in its campaign against
illegal drugs, with 43% are very satisfied and 35% are somewhat satisfied, 10 % wereundecided, while only 12%
were dissatisfied.
Conclusion
Although there so many against of the Duterte’s campaign on war on drugs, the majority
of Filipinos is still strong to support the campaign because it has a big changes to the country. Itlessens the drug
related crimes. The big real evidence is that there are thousands ofsurrenderies of drug addicts due because of the
campaign of Duterte. Making a country and

every barangay and community are drug free. Government should improve the forces of Policeduring Oplan
Tokhang to easily resolve the drug addiction and help the surrenderies to startanew again. Duterte should maintain
this campaign on war on drugs to totally eliminate theillegal drugs.
