Filipinos Speak out about Duterte's War on Drugs

Sandro Gabriel Jr, 34, grave digger at Pasay Public Cemetery, digs a grave in Pasay city, Metro Manila , Philippines September 29, 2016. “A lot of people who have been shot have been buried here. More than 40 people have recently been buried here”, he said. “...I am not saying Duterte should keep killing people. But for us, we will keep working as long as there is work”. Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte completes six months in charge on December 30, with the rising death toll from his war on drugs showing no sign of easing. More than 6,000 people have been killed in the anti-narcotics drive since he took power, about a third in police operations with the rest still being investigated. Many are believed to be vigilante murders, which Duterte has refused to condemn. The former crime-busting mayor of the southern city of Davao had said that the war on drugs would be over within six months but has since pushed back the deadline. Last month he said that he will continue “until the last pusher drops dead”. On the streets of Manila, residents from a variety of professions gave their thoughts. (Photo by Ezra Acayan/Reuters)
