PHILIPPINE National Police chief Gen. Rommel Francisco Marbil said Sunday that the agency has shifted the focus of its anti-illegal drugs operations from cutting off the 'head' or the primary sources to 'destroying the body' or the whole drug supply chain.Marbil said that the implementation approach is designed to be a 'more effective and less bloody' campaign by putting premium on human rights and addressing the drug problem at its very core.
Our previous strategies concentrated too much on cutting off the heads, but we need to target the body — the entire supply chain and the sources driving the drug trade,' he said.He said that the recalibrated strategy will involve intensified intelligence operations and stronger community engagement to identify and dismantle drug trafficking networks.'We are now focusing on high-value drug personalities and the movements of illegal drugs across the country.
