FROM being a local chief executive of one of the major cities in the Philippines -- Davao City, tough-talking Rodrigo Duterte emerged to being the country’s top government official in 2016 with a promise to implement change, especially to elevate the peace and order situation in the Philippines.
Drug abuse and criminality, according to authorities, are interconnected as most of the criminals are able to do what they do, especially heinous crimes, due to the influence of drugs. From 2016 to May 2022, law enforcement agencies conducted a total of 239,218 drug operations that resulted in the arrest of 345,216 drug suspects, while 6,252 people were killed.
In December 2021, Duterte himself admitted that he failed to completely wipe out illegal drugs and criminality in the country, but he maintained that he did as much as he could with the time he had. Moro Islamic Liberation Front chairman Al-hajj Murad Ebrahim is the first interim chief minister of Barmm.
In 2020, Duterte signed into a law the highly controversial and criticized Anti-Terrorism Act of 2020, or the “Act to Prevent Prohibit, Penalize Terrorism,” which repeals RA 9372 otherwise known as the Human Security Act of 2007. Malaya said according to incoming officer-in-charge of the Department of National Defense, retired general Jose Faustino Jr., the country can already declare a “strategic victory” against insurgency.
In 2018, Duterte signed Joint Resolution 1, authorizing the increase in base pay, as well as allowances, benefits, and incentives of all military and police personnel under the Departments of National Defense , Interior and Local Government , Philippine Coast Guard , and the National Mapping and Resource Information Authority .
Duterte slammed the COA several times, as well as the senators who were conducting investigations on the matter. The ruling also affirmed the traditional and legitimate fishing rights of Filipino fishermen in the area.
