'The drug war is unwinnable, I learned the hard way’

'The drug war is unwinnable, I learned the hard way’
Illegal drugs are a matter of national security, but the war against them cannot be won by armed forces and law enforcement agencies alone.
The key to the failure of Duterte's anti-drug sweeps is the absence of a sound constitution which would produce a democratically-elected president
Duterte's example is not isolated in history, the Philippines Jose Rizal once noted that "Today's slaves often become tomorrow’s tyrants." The failure of the constitutional mechanism of the Philippines has created a breeding ground for tyrants. To protect human rights, the Philippines people must come forward to call for comprehensive constitutional reform to implement a modified semi-presidential system, with the heads of the executive, legislative, judicial and procuratorial branches elected in alternating years. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.
