World Leaders Congratulate Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte For Confiscating 6 Billion Worth of Illegal Drugs

Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte was applauded by world leaders after the authorities have seized about 6 billion pesos ($120 million) worth of methamphetamines in a series of anti-narcotics operations in Philippines.

In a video below, one could see the drums of chemicals used to make methamphetamines or what so-called "shabu" by a lot of people.

According to Justice Secretary Vitaliano Aguirre in a news conference, "it is not only the biggest haul this year, but the biggest so far in Philippine history."

In a blog post of Mr. Alon Calinao Dy, he said "this is a good news and a big success of Duterte administration. That is the reason why famous leaders around the world have so much respect for the president."

Netizens congratulated the President despite facing some allegations of extrajudicial killings and human rights violations. For them, Duterte is just doing the right thing as a father of the country who has concerned for every Filipino. 

It is also noted in the past few weeks that United States President Trump said to President Duterte that he is doing the right thing in a war against illegal drugs in the country.
