Problema sa COVID-19, sinasamantala ng drug lords – Pang. Duterte

Sinasamantala ng mga drug lord ang problema sa COVID-19.

Sa State of the Nation Address ni Pangulog Rodrigo Duterte, sinabi nito na lalo pang pinalakas ng mga nasa illegal drugs ang kanilang industriya.

“The dealers and purveyors of illegal drugs, hiding in the shadow of COVID-19, have stepped up their activities. The amount of shabu valued at millions of pesos seized during police operations speak volumes of the enormity and weight of the problem that we bear,” pahayag ng Pangulo.

Sinasamantala din ng mga kurakot na opisyal ang pandemya sa COVID-19.

“The corrupt, the grafters and the influence peddlers also take advantage of the fear and confusion that the coronavirus generates. The financial and material assistance of the government to the unemployed, the sick and the destitute running into billions of pesos, are not spared from corruption and ineptitude. Even the donations from well-meaning private persons are skimmed before reaching their intended beneficiaries. It is like snatching food from the mouths of babes,” pahayag ng Pangulo.

Pero babala ng Pangulo, hindi habang buhay na mapagsasamantalahan ang taong bayan.

“The profiteers, over-pricers and corrupt felons must be laughing while they stash their dirty monies. But not for long. They cannot outrun the long arm of the law,” pahayag ng Pangulo.
