Is the drug problem in the country actually as serious as Duterte supporters claim?

So apparently Duterte has already pulled the "Oh, I don't want this power but the people insist!" trick. Is it a safe assumption that senator's proposed suspension of habeas corpus is the same approach? I'm also really confused how suspending habeas corpus makes a justice system less corrupt and EJK-prone, but I guess my non-Filipino mind doesn't grasp such legal subtleties.

Do you guys have ways you could get out of the country? Not joking.

Shooting Blanks posted:How exactly do you solve drug crises? Treat it as a public health issue? I'd agree that it lessens and mitigates the damage and is generally a better approach, but solve is a pretty strong word in this context. If you have a specific approach, or better yet a case study I'd love to read it. I'm being completely serious, I can't name a country that has solved the drug problem. Portugal is generally the model here. The article notes that other reforms Portugal has made, like a GMI, have likely had a significant effect on the country's drug problems. But at the same time, the effect of decriminalizing drugs and treating it as a health problem and not a criminal one has been potent. EDIT: Another source.
