0:00 [Music] okay we all love uh the stories about President D from Philippines yeah tough on crime yeah tough on crime uh tough on drugs tough on everything that's uh bad and uh again it is debated on whether or not his tactics were truly effective in the way that uh I guess that everyone was hoping it would be m a lot of people died I think uh record shows that during his Reign that crime did drop 76% during the 5 years of his 76 is crazy but did he not just use more crime to make the crime drop and that's 6,000 people on record that died oh ████ and they say the number is actually closer
0:50 to 12,000 wow if you control the numbies it's pretty easy yeah that's true and again it also says here that the official report is given by the government itself um but it's cool because they're investigating his entire like initiative now and he's like at a senate uh questioning and and he's having to admit a lot of cool stuff one of the things that he's admitting to is that he actually did have something called a death squad sounds which was a group of seven gangsters whoa that he gave authority to kill people What that's hilarious but to kill criminals all right what's the criteria though what's the to kill people well at first like people always suspected that he was doing the doing that with the cops because he did tell the police like and he did say that he he mentioned to
1:41 police to encourage criminals or people that were accused to fight back so that they could just kill him wow then make it easier for him wow yeah and he and he literally used those words damn he's so honest yeah cuz he wanted to justify their death on record that is crazy but the but the thing that people weren't sure about was that they thought that his cuz he's he's kind of like going back and forth so it's hard to understand but like he used to say that he did have a private death squad and they that they were cops but now he's saying that they were just gangsters Jesus dude could they be cop gangsters like The Departed or something not even that they were just like Rags ass dudes lowlevel game members yeah they weren't even like top and then so you think like oh he made that so they could kill the bad guys but then if he just had regular ass people killing dudes were they only
2:31 killing bad guys or were they just killing people that were opposing him yeah so it's kind of hard to say I do know that like tough I bet the ladder for sure in my family my family doesn't really roll with them because they don't from their point of view in the Philippines they don't think that it was an effective War uh my so still the same I have a cousin so they prefer crime being 76% up I don't know if they experienced these stats or they witnessed it yeah so it's just number fudging FBI crime stats it could be but um like I have a cousin out there who uh who literally like just the Philippines me we're we're probably a part in age by like a year and it's my mom's sister's son he got picked up during this whole like uh War on Drugs oh ████ he was
3:21 actually a dealer oh ████ and he got picked up and he barely uh he actually didn't get murdered cuz the whole thing was like the initiative was like like oh you find people with drugs just kill them how come he was like like let go or I think it's because he actually had a job like he he's an he's actually a a nurse but he was like I don't know he got addicted to the shaboo and all that stuff and so he started selling it in order to get more of it or something wow and then um so instead what my my family did is they sent him to live um in another place called poo which is like a smaller really tiny Province where like my uncle is uh like a senator or something so that way he would like be kept in check but he was there for a while and I think now he's back in the city and I think he's like back to bad ████ so I think that's
4:11 more like more reflective of what really happened is that like and and duterte also like claims this he's saying that like oh now that I'm out of power all the people that I originally busted for like drugs that aren't dead are now back to doing ████ okay and uh as far as what I can attest to that's true for my family to being bad how did he get out of power was he like voted out or yeah he had to do I think I don't know if you can be reelected but you do like a six-year term well that's a long time yeah at least comparer now it went to Marcos but yeah I don't know but Marcos Marcos the new president was saying that he would carry on some aspects of du's like War on Drugs but maybe not do it as crazy but M I don't know the I don't
5:01 know if like again like it's a whole other country a lot of people have different opinions but my family out there don't feel that like initially they loved the idea of cuz you know they were like great clean it up had to have a hard reset but I don't think they experienced the stats that get pushed out into the world I don't think yeah my buddy was pretty optimistic when he got in and then cuz that's because they wanted to invest in more he's Filipino and they wanted to invest more but there's all these like corruption things that kept going wrong and then he's like ████ man like can't trust anybody over there and whatever and then there's no stability so then when he came into Power I guess his dad was like going over there doing more and more business and then they enjoyed the stability that I guess the
5:54 people that were being a little corrupt kind of like cleaned it up yeah and so with that that like I guess from Real Estate to certain other things where there was a little more Integrity because of the fear but was he popular D I'm not sure but that's the that's the extent of what I heard is that it wasn't necessarily the drug stuff but it was more like the real estate and all the other um things that came along with oh we better not be screwing around you know yeah because it was like Iron Fist days but then I heard heard that and I also read that a lot of the there was a crap ton of innocent people that got like looped up in this whole thing so even the enemies of the cops themselves from their personal lives they were allowed to kill anybody and they would just throw plant drugs on them planted drugs planted guns was like
6:46 rampant yeah so it's like if you just don't get along with a guy he happens to be a cop or he knows a cop damn it's open season and they're not going to be investigating what happened to you and then also a lot of kids got killed a lot of kids cuz you know like Philippines really poor uh drug problems actually like started at a really young age because wow you know some of those poorest areas most so many kids and a lot of them got killed my buddy was um sending me footage of him he's a he's a videographer photographer and there were two tanks and like a Jeep with machine guns and he's just riding with them and I was like what the ████ are you doing and he goes oh I'm working on this documentary thingy and this is how the politician roll out here and I was like what the ████ so that they like so you know out here it's like you got a couple Secret
7:36 Service guys and you're rolling like in a jeep try to be discreet yeah out there they roll around like make it known straight up Warlords like I was like whoa that's crazy and someone else told me Pacquiao rolls with an army like I heard that his security force is like guys with just machine guns and I was like damn I think he I think Pacquiao owns over a 100 AR wow or his militia over 100 over 100 and his family members need um their own little armies because of kidnappings and stuff like that yeah I think uh what when I was all this stuff is just mostly things that I read combined with stuff my family tells me but the um I guess Philippines did get really really bad in terms of the drug trade it wasn't that Philippines was consuming so much of it but they were they were almost like using Philippines as a mule the whole
8:28 country was the mule for like bringing in drugs from other countries into Asia as a whole they would go through the Philippines because ████ was so easy to like manipulate there's so many dang Islands yeah yeah yeah yeah it's it's like the Mexico of Asia cuz there's so many islands you can hide and then some islands I heard are just ran by Pirates like there's no government it's just a pirate area yeah and I guess they didn't have the resources to fight back for a while so imagine if a guy comes into power and is like I will clean all this up but then they also said that he ped the stats as far as how bad the problem really was but I don't know if that's true but they're they're saying that like his his projected like here's how bad it is was like way inflated so maybe it wasn't as bad do you know anything about the Philippines like terrorist scenes it's it's like the Muslim
9:18 terrorist there there's alqaeda there yeah like how is that like does that does that affect the citizens at all or not I don't know anything about that they I think they're done they they went to whole they went to a whole War Urban War yeah oh so it's it's over Al qaa's gone now in the Philippines I think I think they wiped out majority of them or pushed them out I know they don't have like they don't have cold power anywhere cuz remember our buddy Don like worked in the Philippines to get rid of those guys yeah station mostly yeah so I was I wonder if like uh cuz they were training up the Filipino special forces over there so I wonder like um how much the drug trade maybe also cuz you know a lot of the terrorist groups are funded by drug whatever like how much that drug trade is either for the terrorists or maybe Philippines is just a mu for another greater organization or
10:09 something it could be that's the sad part about it but I mean every time I talk to any of my family everything they tell me I always go ████ I'm glad we're over here seriously yeah cuz it's ████ crazy yeah everything cuz it almost sounds almost kind of like like the Mexico situation where the cartels are so big it's like how do you like once you have like it's almost like Venom and Tom Hardy like if once Venom takes over Tom Hardy how do you then separate the two right yeah but if it's just a little bit you go like with sound vibration huh duh sound vibration Sonic yeah we need Sonic vibration sep that makes it even crazier to think about El Salvador and how crazy how fast he was able to turn that c fast from like the most deaths per day to like the safest well the difference is that like when
10:59 when I looked at that I was like man so you have like El salador with all this organized crime and you have a bunch of but then the problem in the Philippines is also is a problem among the citizens themselves so you like they just they're like we like the drugs yeah a drug problem like that is so different than what they you're basically the inhumane part is that you're you're killing them all you're just killing them you're just like hey I just want to do over so I just want to kill these people that are afflicted with this like situation that you know maybe because they were so poor and there was nothing else they could do like they're just stuck so it's like I don't got a way to fix it swipe them out so is it that El Salvador is more like occupied by all these bad guys whereas like it's more cultural in the Philippines somehow or the corruption is well I think for El Salvador's case it was just like all these small businesses were getting extorted by the MS13 and all the gang members so the way bu Kelly
11:50 describes it is like he had to get his army to literally battle it out with these guys to push them into either kill them and then arrest them into that giant mega prison so like I think I think a lot of the people there were like dude get these guys out of here that's how they kind of felt OCC country it seems like they could kind of function as a regular country now and actually have travel and it's safe so I think before it wasn't like that from my understanding I the difference is actually in El Salvador it's one organized group versus the Philippines you just have it's just like so many different the drug problem is a different groups to gangs to Independent people like his Filipino nurse cousin that likes to sell a meth on the side yeah it's it's that thing too of where like
12:41 over there they'll be like okay yeah MS13 doesn't typically hide their MS 13 it's pretty like prominent you know what I mean but then here it's like like my cousin like other than the fact that he's you know selling meth it's like he's just a nurse he actually was going to work and ████ I do think the logistics also so with the way that the Philippines is shaped there's just so many islands and so many different languages it's like how do you organize them under one like military or even police group to go and like capture all of them I see I think why they were given duter ████ too is because he comes from Deva city which is where he was like the mayor and his whole like uh strong part of his rep is that he cleaned that City up and like I I came in there I did this and I could do it for the country right but then they looked back at his
13:32 actual like record and I guess he had lied and um it was actually still the most dangerous rape was like one in like all the it was like the highest rate for like murders and rapes but like he had made it seem like he had fixed it pure politician yeah yeah he's a politician you know like they all are but then I think like the fact that on that precedent they were they trusted him in the whole country will this happen again is what the question is is like will the end of this like reign of terror on over drugs be something that in 10 years we go back and we're like oh ████ actually all he did was just kill a bunch of people and they were just scared of dying it had nothing to do with fixing the drug problem you know who knows maybe he did it maybe he didn't but with time and with things like this where he's starting to admit it that's the scary part it sounds like he did it sounds like it wasn't that organized
