Abstract

The article focuses on the extension of Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte's campaign against drug trafficking. The extension will help ease the pressure on the police and the vigilantes to neutralize drug dealers and users until 2022 and will give Duterte time to refine his approach to solving the country's drug problem. It also mentions that Duterte's plan of wiping out crime and criminals in just 6 months may seem impossible and may dehumanize armed personnel and degrade his presidency.
