    The vid below has slightly annoying auto narration but still provides the perspective to those it was aimed at...IMO.



    Petition below..

    WE are the sovereign people of the Republic of the Philippines. We are sending this petition as an exercise of our collective right to self-determination, which is guaranteed in both the International Covenant of Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR) and International Covenant on Economic, Social, and Cultural Rights (ICESCR).

    Even though I posted about my wife telling me about the killings every day on the tv and locally, there is no fear, it is like a cleansing of people that prey on the weak. I have voiced my concerns for my family of course but if DU30 is true to his words and actions, my children will grow up in a place where there are going to be far less drug pushers and addicts to worry about. This can only be a good thing.
    This is the way I see it Steve.


    Filipino`s are very capable of being law abiding citizens...
    Just look at how they behave themselves on the whole when they work,visit and live in other countries..They make exemplary citizens in my view.
    The problem is that over here,they know they can get away with certain things even if it only means paying a little snack money (baon) to take a short cut..
    Abroad,thats not possible and they know it..
    About every 6 months here they decide to enforce helmet laws..So everyone goes out and buys a helmet..
    After about a month,the law is relaxed and forgotten...No more helmets for 6 months/a year!
    Once they know that something is strictly BAWAL (prohibited),they follow,but if they do not,there MUST be consequences other wise who cares?

    The Mayor of Tagbilaran has just bought about 500 wheel clamping devices and has placed 100`s of warning signs around the town about illegal parking..(Starting September)
    Since then,Ive noticed NO illegal parking anymore on national roads..
    They have employed what seems like another 200 Parking attendants with posh uniforms that are allowed to clamp cars and bikes and they have been doing so..Large fines for release BTW...Pics of these strange looking yellow clumps of metal viced onto their vechicle wheels!!
    Ive never seen anything like it here in the province.
    This has all come about because of DU30`s attitude towards breaking laws.
    DU30 is in a far harder struggle against the Shabu trade but as people learn,without a single doubt in their mind`s that they will suffer the consequences by breaking this law,they will stop..
    I prey that they will stop so that we can see an end to this so called "war".
    As I mentioned in another post..A U.P (university of the Philippines) Professor told me..."Filipino`s know they are being naughty and they voted for papa DU30 to give them a damned good spanking"
    This spanking is now being administered...You better believe it!

    Duterte promised to eradicate drugs within the Philippines in 6 months (he stated that)
    Now he wants another 6 months........
    I think you will find he promised to step down if he never reached this target

    Anyone who dares to question this lunatic is dealt with

    http://www.gmanetwork.com/news/story...de-lima-ouster

    As for the expats supporting Duterte i would imagine its only a matter of time until he turns on you lot
    The Philippine Tourism board has had their funds severely cut by this administration already

    With over 1500 people killed already in this so called war on drugs then words like butchering are most warranted
    These victims were shot on sight and then the lame old excuse about some gun battle that never takes place
    None of these people were given any fair justice or due process

    Some real dramatic testimony today..
    The drug dealer inmate that got the cash to DeLima (3 mill a month) in 2014) says he even spoke with her on the phone from Bilibid prison to make sure the order was from her..
    To prove it,he showed them his phone address book and gave them the number... A woman senator checked her Phone because she had her on contacts... The number matched!! lol

    One of the older members of this committee suggested they call the number there and then!!
    Definitely couldn't make this .... up!! lol.
    Very entertaining!

    Former Justice Minister who allegedly has her Drug involved Driver as her Lover, who also allegedly received 3 million per month from Drug Dealers, the fruit never drops far from the Tree, and she has the Gall to accuse DU30 of any number of things, none of which can be confirmed.. I suspect 1 or 2 Senators need to look in the Mirror...hope i can watch this somewhere...better than Corrie and Emmerdale put together Hahahahaha.

    I think she`s gonna need a new Sim card Harry.






    Says she's being harassed after her mobile no., address were publicly disclosed



    "I have no adequate words to express my utter dismay about the lack of foresight and/or utter lack of sheer humanity displayed today during what I can only describe as a blatant exercise in harassment and persecution that is the so-called House of Representatives 'inquiry'. I condemn and vehemently protest the sheer indecency and foulness of allowing my cellphone number and home address to be publicly disclosed," she said.

    ... and this in a country where the press are permitted to publish photographs and film footage of 'suspects' in police station charge rooms, to show decapitated bodies, road accident victims, dead babies dumped at the side of the road etc, etc.

    Nothing wrong with changing one's mind, even the most brainy people change their mind and I wouldn't refer to any one as being a fruitcake

    Seems that Mr DU30 has already himself invited both the UN and the EU to come to the Philippines and make any investigation they want.

    I tell you one change in the local economy...
    Shabu market has gone sky high...Through the roof I`m informed.
    On the bright side though,I suppose the usual customers could save a few bob and spend their shabu budget on things like rice for the kids...Stuff like that.
