Drugs and crimes are related in many ways. Illegal drugs have greatly affected the Filipino society, and have destroyed lives and families. It costs less than a quarter to get high on meth. Illegal drugs are a source of livelihood for many poor households. At least 65% of inmates accused/convicted have committed crimes related to drugs. The mission of the new administration is to put a stop to secure the production and distribution of illegal drugs. President Duterte wants a safe and secure Philippine society for the Filipinos(PNP Directorate for Investigation).

Even before PRRD was elected as the Philippine President,Dangerous Drug Board and the Department of Education have strengthened the drug awareness program. National Drug Education Program is the primary approach among non-users ,especially among children. In support of RA 9165, the Department have issued an order emphasizing the role of educational system in the implementation of Article III relating to the random drug testing of secondary or high school students.
