The more important thing is that no more people will fall victim to illegal drugs, according to Sen. Go.
Sen. Go: The drug problem can only be solved through tough measures and concrete action. (SBG)
Senator Christopher Lawrence “Bong” Go said on Thursday, November 14, that the administration is open to receive assistance from any person, party or country that is willing to help in the campaign against illegal drugs.
“Para sa amin ni Pangulong Duterte, kapakanan ng Pilipino, interes ng Pilipino, yun ang unahin natin. Magtulungan po tayo para sa kapakanan ng bawat Pilipino. Ang importante rito, wala pong madagdagang inosente na magiging biktima ng iligal na droga,” Go said.
He emphasized, however, his belief that the problem can only be solved through tough measures and concrete action.

“Hindi ito madadala sa istorya lang. Dapat dito talagang hard line na stance. Matigas ka dapat kapag nilalabanan mo ang droga,” he said.
Go added that he welcomes the assistance of the United States in the Philippines’ campaign against illegal drugs, after Vice President Leni Robredo discussed the campaign with some United States embassy officials on 13 November.
“Kung makakatulong po ang US sa kanilang intelligence gathering or sa research, why not?” Go said.
“Ayon sa survey, 82 percent ng Pilipino ay sumasang-ayon sa pamamalakad ni Pangulong Duterte sa kampanya laban sa iligal na droga. Kung makakatulong sila, kung magagawa nilang 90 percent o 100 percent ang sasang-ayon, mas mabuti po,” the Senator added.
President Rodrigo Duterte recently designated Robredo as co-chair of the Inter-Agency Committee on Anti-Illegal Drugs after she said that the administration’s war against drugs is “not working.”
