Duterte: our hope vs. drug syndicates

In Basud, Camarines Norte on Thursday Mayor Rody Duterte warned that the illegal drugs trade would become a serious national security problem, including narcopolitics where politicians work in cahoots with drug syndicates to bleed our country to its knees.

Only a strong-willed leader able to resist drug money and command respect among law enforcement agencies can we find hope to win against this world-wide menace, which among others, victimized many of our OFWs like Mary Jane Veloso.

She is scheduled to be executed for alleged drug-trafficking in Indonesia on Tuesday.

Duterte is our only hope if we are to win the war against drug abuse in the country and save the lives of OFWs unwittingly used as drug mules!
