MANILA, Philippines – The Philippine National Police (PNP) on Monday said it is open to recalibrating the war on drugs after Vice President Leni Robredo earlier called for a reassessment of one of the Duterte administration’s centerpiece campaigns. Ako personally, I would like to open up options,” Lt. Gen. Archie Gamboa, PNP officer-in-charge, said in a press briefing at Camp Crame in Quezon City. ADVERTISEMENT“Kasi (Because) we had a drug war which I think is very successful, but if there is a need to recalibrate and maybe touch a few points, study it, then the PNP is open to it,” he said. The PNP is one of the 20 member agencies of ICAD under the law enforcement cluster. “As a matter of fact, we generals do not join anti-illegal drug operations,” said Gamboa.
