There is apetition going around, a couple. One for reaserch for medical
use, and another to legalize it for medical use. You can also petition the
department of drug controll, for a waiver for medical use, but I do not
believe anyone has gotten one yet, because you need a doctor to support the
documents, and there is no local research...
But there are thousands of studies done in the Western countries, USA,
Canada, Europe, Austrailia, Germany...etc, that show MANY profound medical
uses.
There is a reason the USA is legalizing it to over 50% of the states and
territories now. Several reasons.
Prohibition NEVER works for anyone but the black market, and crooked
politicians making big cash from it. It fosters corruption.
Legal use like in 4 States now, takes ALL the black market money out of
the equation.
It frees up police, jails, and millions of dollars, of taxpayer money to
enforce the laws, and generates BILLIONS in tax revenues.
Of the millions upon millins of daily uses of it, there is less than
one instance in a million, of a bad occurence. It is safer to use than
eating peanuts. Proven.
The studies done in the USA could be used as proof for its medical uses,
and the data from the fully legal states, could be used as eveidence also.
How it affects money, taxes,generats revenues, creates jobs, and helps
millions of people with medicines.
Its not just that it is good medicine for DOZENS of uses, from cancer , to
arthritis, to depression, spasms, chronic pains, nervous ailments,
digestive problems, migraine headaches....etc...But it is medicine that
helps things other medicines CANT do much for. It also is MUCH cheaper ,
and safer to use, than most medicines, most of which have many horrible
side effects.
Prohibition here is costing the country a great deal in law enforcement,
social injustices, lack of medical access to patients, and huge tax
revenues, loss of tourism, and job creation.
Many people AVOID the Philippines because it has the harshest laws in
the world for it.
Consider this: WHO do YOU know, or heard of, that has had a bad ,
serious or debilitating effect from using pot? Well medical strains of
cannabis are not pot. They are bred to relieve target ailments for people
with needs. Specific strains used for specific problems. Sure they get you
high, make you feel god, and smile.
Alcohol makes you stupid, lazy, and violent. Pot helps people get OFF of
other drugs.
If someone is going to use something as a habbit, it is best to be pot,
than cocaine or booze.
As the rest of the world advances, and grants the people more freedom
in this regard, this nation is GOING to have to deal with the internation
issues and pressures.
Most doctors, and clergy support it medical uses. Most medical
establishments and university studies support it. Worldwide.
The arguments against it are already LOST.
Smoking wild strains grown by drug dealers is garbage. Almost useless,
except to get high, and often a headache, and to create illegal money.
There are uses for oils, feed for animals, and textiles. Fuels, building
supplies, and clothes. Foods. Medicines.

Go to /www.change.org/p to find the petitions. They need more support.
And pot is NOT adictive. For some, it is HABBIT forming like tobacco. For
most, it makes them fel better, so they choose to keep using it.
I grew up in Wisconsin, and Michigan. I used it legaly for medicne in
Michigan , and grew it. When I moved to Iloilo, I havent touched or seen it
since. I have no withdrawal or problem without it. But now I have to use a
bunch of other herbs and pills. It costs me a lot more, and is LESS
effective. For many people Cannabis is the only thing that will help them.
It should just be completely legal and taxed, like tobacco, and alcohol,
and kept from minors.
Thas my experience , and beliefe. I am retired now and on pension. Not a
kid that just wants to get high. But whats wrong with smoking it in your
own house just to relax?
NOTHING .
Hate to tell the director but marijuana is not addictive. It is funny that
the medical and police state that someone taking opioids is not addictive
but that person is depended on the drug and marijuana is addictive and the
opposite is the real truth. Opioids are so very addictive and marijuana
can be put aside at any time. Try that with someone that has been taking
opioids for a couple of months.it seems that if we legalize it the dea and
pdea will stop getting so much funding from the govt that some of them
might loose their job and that is a big concern to them. I do understand
that but being a pain management patient for over 10 years and if I had the
choice between opioids and marijuana I would defiantly take the marijuana
because if I was out of meds would not be a major issue where if I run out
of opioids for one day it becomes an incredible issue. Please think about
the people and be compassionate.
This so called "research" concerning lethal dose is a total scam.the truth
is tht the government in the u.s successfully managed to gas a group of
rhesus monkeys in 1974.they strapped our cousins to chairs and force fed
via gasmasks 30 joints per day of nothing but smoke,no oxygen at all.they
then opened up the monkeys heads and counted the dead brain cells.they then
counted the controll group whom had not received the gassing,then opened
those monkeys heads and counted the brain cells.burning any object lets off
carbon monoxide no only cannabis.so claiming it killed the monkeys brain
cells it wrong.it was actually a study in asphixiation rather than
lethality of the cannabis plant.the u.s government then hid the methodology
frm which they derived the information to claim tht cannabis gives u brain
damage. Listen to the truth please f.d.a set the plant free and allow
people to use it as they see fit
Mr Wilkins Villanueva, So you mean The United States Of America violated
their own treaty as well? So basically what PDEA are saying is that
Philippines research facilities are better than research facilities in the
First World Countries. You do know that The 1961 United Convention that
illegalized Medical Cannabis was passed based on a propaganda film which is
what we call The Reefer Madness which demonized medical cannabis without
any scientific backing was unconstitutional. Right? How much money did the
greedy pharmaceutical companies payed you for you to resolve on killing our
sick fellow country men that in need of medical cannabis by keeping on
demonizing medical cannabis?
PDEA guy! you came out short man...please before your say something stupid
ang lack of info. about our cannbis.. why don't you spark up a joint and
pass it to your PDEA boss so that you can both understand the true meaning
of life, truth and contentment.. PDEA department you can't stop cannabis
from growing simply because it grows on the ground only our mother nature
can stop cannabis from growing.. GREEDY PDEA
why need to study if it was studied already in the US and has been
legalized,,,so it means philippines doesnt trust the outcome of the studies
in US,,,,why not just relying on the results of the studies of US so that
no need for the gov. to speed the peoples money in doing it,,,,or maybe you
and ur pdea just keep on telling that bec you find a way on currupting the
budget of it if it happens?
cguro yung mga nkakulong s pinas ng dahil s marijuana is hindi lahat
nkagawa ng krimin tulad ng pagpatay, pagnanakaw, o rape,,,,,nagkataon lng n
bawal ag marijuana s pinas,,,so kung ang alak is bawal din cguro masmarami
pang mga lasinggiro ang nkulong ky s mga stoners kc paglasing is yung iba
is nagging voilente compara s paggamit ng marijuana is tatawa ka lng at
magiging relax,,
agree with the views and comment regarding cannabis, prohibition is what
they did because of money, they manipulate thing to make it bad but the
truth is not, century tell it has really benefits. I prefer the arguments
of Mr. Manansala the way he deliver the explanation makes sense to me.
Legalizing this thing I personally vote if ever signature is needed....
true.. wag natin ipagkait sa tao ang regalo ng diyos., pwd na man sigurong
i'test muna., bago tayo maging opposed sa isang bagay., isa pa.. yung mga
tambay na na'mamarijuana., malay natin magkaroon na sila ng trabaho through
marijuana cultivation.. panahon na para sa pagbabago.. live green and save
lives..
hindi ko susundin ang batas!
marijuana is for everyone ginawa yan ng gumawa satin para gamitin natin!
mas na una pa ang halaman kesa sa PDEA!! be educated that the marijuana is
not a drug it's a plant!
smoke it para ma realize nyo kung anong ginagawa nyo sa mundo.
fuck,,,,the pdea it self gain a lot of money from drug traffickers,,,,thats
why the dont like to make it legalize ,,,,just imagine what would happen to
the network from drug traffickers to pdea and pharmacies if all stoners and
patients had to plant their own pot
marijuana helped me to self-realize that there is indeed a God. peace!
then i sleep. :D
mali kayo sa PDEA. dapat kinuha niyo ung doctor din who opposes para
technical ang debate. ung PDEA susunod lang kung ano ung nasa law. lol
Legalization of cannabis will maybe increase consumption, but will
dramatically decrease consumtion of tobacco, alcohol and pills! Do you
understand? Do you prefer killers or a plant that safe and cure?
its the second bec its so cheap in philippines,,but if it will be
expenesive us coke ,,do you think it would be second? like here in
saudi,,,,weed is so expensive than meth and ecstasy,,,,
napanood ko to last year eh hahaha tawa ko ng taw dun sa nasa kaliwa gigil
na gigil i explain yung weed.
safe yan! mas safe pa sa alak at alcohol yan. F.Y.i. !!!
We found back the truth about marijuana! Thank you! Now let's be diligent
about! No corruption anymore! No death squads! Free innocent patients in
your jails!
bakit ang mga katutubo noon mas mahaba ang buhay at mas gumagaling sa sakit
marijuana lang ang meds na ginagamit nila.. SAKIM ang GOBYERNO PDEA
SAKIM!!!

brader the muslim people are the majority in mindanao who fought for liberty since magellan and it's going on until now. they are already the inhabitants of mindanao even before spain came. un ang pinaglalaban nila. kaya mahirap talaga ang stand ng government dito.if BBL will not pass, then mindanao may be lost forever. philippines may become luzon and visayas na lang. if U.N will grant them "self-determination" then patay na talaga.
+arjay2002ph if mindanao will become a separate nation??? haha yon na! balak na ngang ihiwalay ang Mindanao sa pilipinas. baka gagamit na ng Philippine passport yong mga Filipino o Christian dyan sa Mindanao.
xtians should be treated fairly. probably they would give xtians a license or paper na patunay na xtians sila.Mayor Duterte said to Nur Misuari, "if mindanao will become a separate nation then fine. i can work for you but remember our presence here (xtians). we are now the minority and if xtian oppression will happen, i will become the leader who will rebel against you."
