See what Filipino president had to say about drug dealers and drug addicts: 'Mr Duterte said he would kill as many addicts as Hitler did Jews in his crackdown on users and dealers.' He wants to save the generation to come. So we have to be firm too. Please have zero tolerance on these destroyers of our society.

Unfortunately our leaders are planning to go to Nirvana after death so they are not firm enough in tackling drug offenders.
