That whole country is a mess,and has been long before The Punisher arrived on the scene. It would be best to boycott anything that coral from the phillipines
serendipitous
Duterte has already implemented the death penalty in the Philippines. The only difference this time round is that it is conducted without trial in the streets and homes of citizens who may or may not be guilty of crimes.

"2010 - Chinese authorities arrests Japanese citizens in China for "illegal activities" as revenge after weeks of growing tension between China and Japan over the arrest of a Chinese trawler captain by the Japanese coastguard when the Chinese fishing boat rammed a Japan Coast Guard vessel on disputed waters of the East China Sea"

In the present story it is not "we" who are criticising this alarming move - it is elected politicians in Duterte's own party. And they are being punished for merely expressing opposition. If The Philippines ever did have any semblance of democracy, let it be known it is now non-existent.

Duterte is only carry out his election promises, the people back him. Many other countries use the death penalty as a deterrent, others actually carry it out --http://drugabuse.com/the-20-countries-with-the-harshest-drug-laws-in-the-world/ -- Who are we to criticise what policies are installed in countries that aren't our own, however much our own consciences might be offended.
