Republic Act 9165, or the Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs
Act of 2002 was signed on June 7,2002 and took effect
on July 4, 2002. R.A. 9165 defines more concrete courses of
action for the national anti-drug campaign and imposes heavier
penalties to offenders.
The enactment of RA 9165 reorganized the Philippine drug law
enforcement system. While the Dangerous Drug Board (DDB)
remains as the policy-making body, it created the Philippine
Drug Enforcement Agency(PDEA) under the Office of the
President. The new law abolished the National Drug Law
Enforcement and Prevention Coordinating Center, Philippine
National Police Narcotics Group (PNP Nargrp), National Bureau
of Investigation Narcotics Unit (NBI NU), and the Customs
Narcotics Interdiction Office (CNIO).
Drug Problems in the Philippines Reports of drug related
crime are common in the Philippines media. The main
concern tends to be towards Shabu which gets the most
media attention. It does seem that illegal drug use is on
the rise, and this has worrying implications for the future.
There is an urgent need to educate young people as to
the dangers of drug use, and there is also a great need to
help those who are already addicted to escape their
misery. Failure to do this could mean there will be further
deterioration within many Filipino communities.
A US government report in 2009 concluded that illegal
drug use was a significant problem in the Philippines due
to corrupt and poor law enforcement. There was
particular concern expressed about the amount of
methamphetamine (shabu) and cannabis production in
the area. Drug addiction appears to be on the rise in the
Philippines. There are believed to be as many as 6.7
drug abusers according to figures from 2004- this is a
dramatic increase from 1972 when there was only
believed to have been around 20,000 drug users in the
Philippines. The drug that is most abused in the
Philippines continues to be Alcohol – they are the second
highest consumers of alcoholic drinks in South East Asia.
The most commonly abused drugs in the Philippines
include:
Alcohol
Marijuana
Heroin
Cocaine
Methamphetamine (locally known as Shabu)
Inhalants such as nitrates and gasoline. These can be a
cheap way for people to get high.
Opium

Drug abuse

  • 1. Prepared By : Francisco Lazarra Gatchalian III
  • 2. Republic Act 9165, or the Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act of 2002 was signed on June 7,2002 and took effect on July 4, 2002. R.A. 9165 defines more concrete courses of action for the national anti-drug campaign and imposes heavier penalties to offenders. The enactment of RA 9165 reorganized the Philippine drug law enforcement system. While the Dangerous Drug Board (DDB) remains as the policy-making body, it created the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency(PDEA) under the Office of the President. The new law abolished the National Drug Law Enforcement and Prevention Coordinating Center, Philippine National Police Narcotics Group (PNP Nargrp), National Bureau of Investigation Narcotics Unit (NBI NU), and the Customs Narcotics Interdiction Office (CNIO).
  • 3. Drug Problems in the Philippines Reports of drug related crime are common in the Philippines media. The main concern tends to be towards Shabu which gets the most media attention. It does seem that illegal drug use is on the rise, and this has worrying implications for the future. There is an urgent need to educate young people as to the dangers of drug use, and there is also a great need to help those who are already addicted to escape their misery. Failure to do this could mean there will be further deterioration within many Filipino communities.
  • 4. A US government report in 2009 concluded that illegal drug use was a significant problem in the Philippines due to corrupt and poor law enforcement. There was particular concern expressed about the amount of methamphetamine (shabu) and cannabis production in the area. Drug addiction appears to be on the rise in the Philippines. There are believed to be as many as 6.7 drug abusers according to figures from 2004- this is a dramatic increase from 1972 when there was only believed to have been around 20,000 drug users in the Philippines. The drug that is most abused in the Philippines continues to be Alcohol – they are the second highest consumers of alcoholic drinks in South East Asia.
  • 5. The most commonly abused drugs in the Philippines include: Alcohol Marijuana Heroin Cocaine Methamphetamine (locally known as Shabu) Inhalants such as nitrates and gasoline. These can be a cheap way for people to get high. Opium Ecstacy
