Drug dependents should be treated as victims: Sen. Christopher Lawrence Go, during the hybrid hearing of the Committee on Public Order and Dangerous Drugs on various proposed measures regarding drug rehabilitation, maintains that drug dependents should be treated as victims who are in dire need of medical, psychological and spiritual health. Go added they should be given a chance to be successfully reintegrated into the society as productive citizens and to live a new life. “Through these measures, we can now intensify our efforts in helping our fellow Filipinos take back their lives from the dark grip of dangerous drugs and the menace it creates. It is in this regard that I commend my colleagues in pushing for these measures,” Go said Tuesday, February 16, 2021. (Screen grab/Senate PRIB)
