President Rodrigo Duterte of the Philippines has warned imprisoned Chinese drug lords — and those still at large who have since left the Philippines — not to continue to disturb the peace in his nation, warning them that, should they remain active in the drug trade, “you will die.”
Duterte, who won the presidency on a law and order campaign and eradicated drug crime as mayor of southern Davao city for two decades, named three major known drug traffickers operating in the country during a televised speech. The three — Peter Co, Peter Lim, and Herbert Colangco — are of Chinese origin, and only Lim is currently not in prison.
“Peter Co, do not escape from prison. You will die. Colangco, never try to go out of prison. You will die,” he announced. To Lim, he said, “Better tell him not to come back to the Philippines anymore. The moment he steps out of the plane, he will die.”
According to the regional news outlet Rappler, the two imprisoned drug traffickers are believed to still be active, running their business from within prison. High-profile drug lords are often able to bribe police officers to allow the practice to go on.

He's a wild man, but I'll bet this will be very effective.
He also told citizens that they should kill drug addicts...and they have been...
Sounds like they got their own Trump. A real leader, not a weak Muslim, communist homosexual.
It's a tough job to keep law in a country with over 2000 inhabited islands (and another 5000 uninhabited ones).
There is probably no other way to rid the earth of addicts that works unfortunately.
This guy must have some really good personal security.
