Philippines war against illegal drug

Philippines newly elected president - Rodrigo Duterte - has started a war against Illegal Drug like shabu ( methamphetamine), and he has a massive support among the people as well as the senate and his own government. Methamphetamine is a extreme addictive drug, and it is estimated that methamphetamine abusers are responsible for a large amount of crime in the Philippines. However, the United Nation ( UN ) and European Union ( EU ) are scepitical to this war. Why? They think it's against human rights. Representatives from UN and EU will visit The Philippines during this year to discuss the situation. What cames out of it remains too see. President Duterte is an experienced politician. He has been a mayor in parts of Mindanao for more than 20 years, and the crime rates has been reduced by nearly 50 percent during his time as a mayor.
