THE PROBLEM AND REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE

INTRODUCTION

Drug is a chemical substance that brings about physical,

physiological, behavioral and/or psychological change in a person

taking it. Dangerous drug a substance affecting the central

nervous system which when taken into a human body brings about

physical emotional or behavioral changes in a person taking.

“The fights against illegal drugs are not a matter of choice.

It is a must, if we are to leave behind a just and livable

society for this and future generation. Neither is it a stand-

alone action that diminishes the importance of our war against

poverty and inequality” said Hon. Hilario Perez Davide III, the

Governor of Cebu in the implementation of anti-illegal drugs

campaign in Cebu.

Illegal Drugs is one of the major problem of our country

especially how to prevent this problem. Over the last decade

until today, the Philippines has increase the size of prisoner,

half of them are committed drug violation. The illegal drugs were

prevalent in our country. Even the unsubstantial children were

involved in illegal drugs. Illegal drugs place serious

constraints on the ability of developing like the Philippines, to

achieve improvement across the full range of established

development goals. Violence remains to be the one of the most

apparent impact of illegal drugs. Drug related crimes continue to

proliferate, not only inflicting injuries and deaths but also

wearing away at the fabric society and diverting resources that

are greatly needed to achieve progress. Economic stability is

also affected by illegal drugs as it lowers productivity through

occupational injuries and spread diseases in workplace. The

effects of drug abuse on national development are significant as

productivity gains are crucial for the country to attain a

competitive position in the volatile world economy. The power of

drugs to influence not only the present but also the future makes

it all the more disturbing. Drugs target the youth, individuals

on their most productive years. As a consequence, illegal drugs

are able to convert a vibrant source of productivity into a

burden on society.

The first law on illegal drugs is RA 6425, also known as

Dangerous Drugs Act of 1972. This law has been the backbone of

the drug of law enforcement system in the Philippines in the year

of 1972 to 2002.Recognizing the need to further strengthen

existing law governing Philippine Drug Law enforcement system the

Philippine President Gloria Macapagal – Arroyo sign the Republic

Act 9165, known as comprehensive dangerous drugs act of 2002.


Effectiveness of Barangay . . . . . . 3

This law defines more concrete courses of action for the national

anti – drug campaign.

With the advent of the comprehensive drugs law (RA 9165), the

country has faced with an estimated 6.7 million drug users in

2004. The main drug abuse is methamphetamine hydrochloride

(shabu), followed by marijuana, and third is inhalant.

Since the RA 9165 was implemented until now, there are several

campaigns that implemented by the government to neutralize, to

prevent and to suppress the illegal drugs such as Oplan Antenna,

Oplan Banat, Oplan Iceberg, Oplan Thunderbolt I, II, III, etc.

The latest drug campaigns of the government are Oplan Tokhang,

Oplan Double Barrel and Oplan Sagip.

The barangays, as the first line of defense, should lead the

fight against illegal drugs through campaign. Memorandum Circular

no. 2015-63, Revitalization of the Barangay anti-Drug Abuse

Council (BADAC) was created. The Barangay Anti-Drug Abuse Council

have a function and powers to plan, strategize, implement and

evaluate , programs and project on drug abuse prevention in the

barangay. The Barangay anti-drug abuse council is a support of

PNP in implementing anti-illegal drug campaign. The

researchers chosen Barangay Mayapyap Norte because, this area was

on the top list active in BADAC, while other barangays are

inactive. The Barangay Captain of Mayapyap norte create the

measures on how the BADAC is effective as support of PNP in

implementing anti-illegal drugs campaign.

Review of Related Literature and Studies

Foreign Literature

The National Drug Control Strategy (2014) is the primary

strategy in the fight against drugs in the United States, falling

the responsibility of the Office National Drug Control

Policy(ONDCP). The latter is a branch of the Executive Office of

the president of the United States , created in 1989 following

the adoption of the Anti- Drug Act.(ONDCP,2014)

Generally speaking, illicit drug use has declined in the

United States over the past 20 years. The Monitoring the Future

study (2014), a survey on the drug use behavior of the American

8th, 10th and 12th graders, showed an overall rate of drug use of

27.2% for all three graders, a 6.9% decrease since 1997.(NIDA,

2014) ; (Johnson,et al, 2015).

Singapore pursues a comprehensive national strategy to combat

the scourge of drugs, comprising a high- profile public education

campaign, treatment and rehabilitation of drug offenders, as well

as strict laws and stiff penalties against those involved in the

drug trade. Public education against drug abuse starts in

schools. For abusers, our approach is to try hard to wean them

relapsing. They are given two chances in a drug rehabilitation

center. If they go through counseling, kick their drug habit and

return to society with useful skills, they will not have any

criminal record. Those who are still addicted to go prison, where

they put on general rehabilitation programed to help them

reintegrate into the community. Strong community support against

drug abuse has been critical to our fight against drugs.

Singapore society resolutely rejects drug abuse. Several

voluntary welfare organizations run halfway to house to help

recovering addicts adjust back into society . Many employers also

come forward to offer reformed drug addicts employment

opportunities. (www.theguardian.com/singaporeopinion)

Mass media campaigns are an interesting preventive tool as

they make it possible to reach large numbers of people. They are

primarily aimed at raising awareness of the harmful effects of

drugs and discouraging their use. Although numerous countries and

large sums of money have been invested in producing them media

campaign have not been sufficiently assessed to determine how

effective they truly (Wakefield, loken, &hornik, 2010) indeed,

research shows little evidence for their ability to reduce drug

use (UNODC, 2013).

Australia has two principal organizations that comprise the

strategies governance structure are the Intergovernmental

committee on drugs (IGCD) and the Australian National Advisory

Council on Alcohol and Drugs. These organizations bring together

experts from the health, justice, and education sectors and are

responsible for coordinating the strategy for the federal

government. The strategy also recognizes the importance of

evidence- based programs and policies and relies on the

scientific support of three specialized research center: the

national Drug and Alcohol research Center, the national Drug

research Institute and the National Centre for Education on

Training And Addiction .(CIPC,2012)

with the declaration as contained in its resolution No 1-2017

dated February 27.According to the resolution, all of the city’s

64 barangays have been declared as “drug-cleared” villages based

on the declaration of their respective barangay councils and

Barangay Anti-Drug Abuse Councils (BADAC).It also stated that the

intensified operation of “Project Double Barrel” resulted in the

total eradication of the presence of drug personalities and

illegal drug activities in the city of Sorsogon.”City Mayor Sally

Lee lauded the declaration as she attributed it to the relentless

efforts of the community stakeholders, especially the Philippine

In study conducted by Medoza, et al.(2016),entitled Anti-

Illegal Drugs Campaign: What Works and What Doesn’t Work. Since

its inception at the Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs of 1961,

the global war on drugs has remained a contentious issue.

International evidence has illustrated that there was no clear

link between a punitive approach or decriminalization and the

increase or decrease of drug users. Despite this, some countries

continue to adopt an enforcement-centric approach on the war on

drugs. At the same time, the Philippines welcomed the new

administration under Pres. Rodrigo Duterte this year. The country

also faced the administration’s intensified campaign against the

use of illegal drugs. In aid of the government’s campaign against

illegal drugs and in support of coordinated action across

different agencies tasked with tackling the illegal drugs

problem, the Ateneo School of Government, the Ateneo School of

Medicine and Public Health, the Ateneo Human Rights Center and

the Ateneo Law School conducted a policy forum on “Anti-Drug

Campaigns: What Works and What Doesn’t Work” last 3 October 2016.

The policy forum brought together international and local

experts, policymakers, andvarious stakeholders in the anti-

illegal drugs campaign in Southeast Asia and beyond. It offered a

unique opportunity to present different views and learning

experiences of other countries.

In the study conducted by Baes et. al (2011) entitled ‘Drug

Prevention Campaign of Las piňas city, It can be concluded that

the citizen of Las Piňas City have a positive perception towards

the drug prevention campaign of local govt. All the survey

question received an overall average of 3.98 which is verbally

interpreted as slightly agree. This means that the citizen of Las

Piňas believe that their local government is doing its task of

protecting its community from the hazard of illegal drugs.

Furthermore, it can be concluded that Las Pinas city does abide

by what is being prescribed by the comprehensive dangerous drugs

act of 2002 which is pertinent law on this study except for

particular provision with regard to the allocation of substantial

budget for funding the creation and implementation of programs

related to drug prevention campaign.

In the study conducted by Canding et.al(2006) entitled

‘Assessment of Local Government of Response to Drug Addiction in

Municipality of Dasmarinas, Cavite. The citizen of Dasmarinas,

Cavite affirmed that they are aware of the programs regarding

preventive education and information found in the newspaper.

However, the citizen are not aware of the said program of the

local government because of some reason such as lack of funds,

lack of personnel and lack of participation from the other

Foreign Studies

In the study conducted by Office of National Drug Control

Policy (1997) entitled “The National Youth Anti-Drug Media

Campaign” diverse. The Drug-related communication environment is

remarkably active and diverse. Although there is heightened

concern in the media about the adolescent drug use epidemic

popular culture still tends to normalize drug use, and active

debates are currently raging on a full range of issues, from the

medical use of marijuana to the provision of drug-treatment

programs in our Nation’s prisons. The fractious nature of this

communication environment can, In some instances, cause confusion

and in action. This can be true even for issues, such as

preventing adolescent drug use, on which there is broad societal

consensus regarding the need to take action. To reverse the

adolescent drug use epidemic in America, our Nation’s youth,

parents, and other people who touch the lives of youth must hear

consistent, clear, compelling, and truthful messages about the

reality and true costs of using drugs and the benefits of living

drug free. The impact of drug prevention messages and activities

offered in communities across America will be enhanced to the

extent that the messages be informed by proven strategies and

communicated by many voices. The National Youth Anti-Drug Media

Campaign will be one of those voices; through coordination with

community-based organizations, professional associations, the

entertainment industry, and the media, those voices will

resonate.

Conceptual Framework

In this study the researchers aims to determine Effectiveness

of Barangay Anti- Drugs Abuse Council as Support of Philippine

National Police-Provincial Anti-illegal Drug Monitoring Center in

Implementing Anti-Illegal Drugs Campaign

Effectiveness was measured only by the end result. Sometimes

a good plan is better when they are executed even violently today

than the perfect plan which is executed tomorrow for tomorrow is

too late.

The drug problem are worldwide phenomenon, beyond the power

of anyone government to deal with, not are drugs simply the

concern of the law enforcement agencies, drug influence politics,

international relation, peace and war, and the economics of

individual countries and of the entire world.

To further discuss the conceptual framework of the study, the

researchers used the independent and dependent variables. The

independent variables deal with the profile of the respondents,

problem encountered by two groups of respondents in implementing

anti-illegal drugs campaign and level of effectiveness of BADAC

as support of PNP-PAIDMC in implementing anti-illegal drugs

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
Effectiveness of Barangay . . . . . . 20

This chapter presents the following: research methods,

respondent, data gathering, instrument, used reliability and

validity of the instrument and statistical treatment of data.

Research Method

This study used the descriptive method of research for this

is the most appropriate means of evaluating the Effectiveness of

BADAC as support of PNP-PAIDMC in implementing anti- illegal drug

campaign.

Descriptive method is method used to obtain information

concerning the current status of the phenomena to describe “what

exist” with respect to variable or condition in a situation. The

method involved range from the survey which describes the status,

the correlation study which investigate the relationship between

the variables, to developmental studies which seeks to determine

changes over time (Key, 1997)

Calderon (1993) defines descriptive research as a purposive

process of gathering, analyzing, classifying, and tabulating data

about prevailing conditions, practices, belief, processes, trends

and cause effect relationships and then making adequate and

accurate interpretation about such data with or without the aid

of the statistical method.

Table 1.1 PNP-PAIDMC member ranked first were 26-30 years old

with a frequency of 6 or 40 percent, ranked second were the 31-

35,and 36-40 years old with a frequency of both 3 or 20 percent,

ranked third were the 41-45, 46-50,and 56-60 years old with a

frequency of both 1 or 6.67.From BADAC member ranked first were

the 51-55 years old with a frequency of 6 or 40 percent, ranked

second were the 61-Above with a frequency of 4 or 26.66 percent,

ranked third were the 46-50 with a frequency of 2 or 13.33

percent and ranked fourth were the 36-40, 41-45 and 51-55 years

old with a frequency of both 1 or 6.67 percent.

Based on the result of age distribution, it can be inferred

that majority of PNP-PAIDMC member are in between 26-30. It

simply because the maximum age requirements in PNP is 26-30 and

majority of the BADAC are range from 51-55 because they know how

to dealing with others.
