World Report 2. 01. Philippines Human Rights Watch.

Rodrigo Duterte took office as president of the Philippines on June 3. Duterte campaigned on an explicit platform to “kill all of you who make the lives of Filipinos miserable,” including criminal suspects, as part of his vow to “solve drugs, criminality, and corruption in three to six months.” At his inauguration, he pledged that his administration would “be sensitive to the state’s obligations to promote, and protect, fulfill the human rights of our citizens … even as the rule of law shall at all times prevail.” During the government’s campaign against illegal drugs, however, Duterte has publicly praised the extrajudicial killing of suspected drug dealers and drug users. Philippine human rights groups have linked the campaign and Duterte’s often- fiery rhetoric to a surge of killings by police and unidentified gunmen since he took office, with nearly 4,8. Police say that individuals targeted by police were killed only after they “resisted arrest and shot at police officers,” but have provided no evidence to support the claim. The killings have highlighted the country’s long- standing problem of impunity for abusive state security forces.

Other key issues confronting the Philippines this past year include the rights of indigenous peoples, violations of reproductive health rights, child labor, and stigma and discrimination related to the HIV/AIDS crisis. Extrajudicial Killings. The Philippines has seen an unprecedented level of killing by law enforcement since Duterte took office. Police statistics show that from July 1 to November 3, 2.

That death toll constitutes a nearly 2. January 1 and June 1. Police statistics attribute an additional 3,0. July 1 to September 4. The police categorize those killings as “deaths under investigation,” but there is no evidence that police are actively probing the circumstances in which they occurred.

In August, Philippine National Police Director- General Ronald Dela Rosa stated that he did not “condone” extrajudicial killings. In September, Police Internal Affairs Service sources said they were “overwhelmed” by the scale of police killings and could only probe “a fraction” of the deaths. Duterte has ignored calls for an official probe into these killings. Instead, he has said the killings show the “success” of his anti- drug campaign and urged police to “seize the momentum.” Key senior officials have endorsed this view.

Duterte’s top judicial official, Solicitor- General Jose Calida, defended the legality of the police killings and opined that the number of such deaths was “not enough.” Attacks on Indigenous Peoples. In March 2. 01. 6, some 6,0. North Cotabato and Bukidnon provinces gathered in Kidapawan City in Mindanao to call for government food aid and other assistance.

The police response included shooting live ammunition into the crowd, killing two people. Watch The Reader HD 1080P. At time of writing, neither the Senate nor police have released the results of their respective investigations into the incident. Reproductive Health Rights.

In his July 2. 5 State of the Nation Address, President Duterte pledged to “put into full force and effect” the Responsible Parenthood and Reproductive Health Law (the RH Law). Watch The Tank Streaming. Such support is greatly needed because on January 8, 2.

Philippine Congress eliminated funding in the 2. RH Law, cutting vital support for lower- income individuals.

Millions of Filipinos rely on state- provided contraceptive services and supplies for protection from sexually transmitted infections, and for safe birth- spacing and family planning. The United Nations Population Fund has criticized the congressional action as a threat to “the basic human right to health as well as the right to reproductive choices.” Human Rights Watch has also documented policies implemented by local governments designed to derail full enforcement of the RH Law.

In Sorsogon City in the Bicol region, Mayor Sally Lee issued an executive order in February 2. Although the order does not explicitly prohibit family planning services and contraceptive supplies, health workers, and advocates said that the city government gave oral guidelines to the city’s public clinics to cease the distribution of family planning supplies and instead promote only “natural” family planning methods such as the Catholic Church- approved “rhythm method.”In Balanga City, the municipal government banned local public health officials and clinics from procuring or distributing contraceptives. That interruption compelled low- income people to either buy them from pharmacies or clandestinely from local government- employed midwives at relatively high cost. Children’s Rights. In November 2. 01. Philippine government detained more than 1.

Asia- Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit in Manila. The arbitrary detentions were part of so- called clearing operations aimed at beautifying the city ahead of the summit. Police detained the children under guard in government facilities for the homeless and orphans and then released them without charge when the summit concluded. Child labor in small- scale gold mines remains a serious problem.

Children work in unstable 2. Small steps taken by authorities to tackle child labor—such as vocational training for former child miners in one mining town—have been undermined by continued lack of regulation of the small- scale gold mining sector, and by the government's failure to address child labor systematically. HIV Epidemic. Although national prevalence is still low, the country has experienced a sharp rise in new HIV infections in recent years.

Prevalence among men who have sex with men (MSM) has increased 1. In 2. 01. 5, the Department of Health reported that at least 1.

HIV prevalence rates among MSM of more than 5 percent, with one—Cebu City, the second largest city—recording a 1. That compares to a 0. HIV prevalence rate for the Asia- Pacific region and a 4. HIV prevalence rate in Sub- Saharan Africa, which has the most serious HIV epidemic in the world. There has also been an increase in Cebu City in HIV prevalance among pregnant women, and in newly recorded infections among people who inject drugs in Cebu City, where the prevalence rate among such people has been recorded at between 4. Many of these new infections among people who inject drugs are due to sharing contaminated needles.

The growing HIV epidemic is driven by a legal and policy environment hostile to evidence- based policies and interventions that could help prevent HIV transmission. Such restrictions are found in national, provincial, and local government policies, and are compounded by the resistance of the Catholic Church to sexual health education and condom use.

Government policies create obstacles to condom access and HIV testing, limit educational efforts on HIV prevention, and have ended harm reduction programs in Cebu City that were previously distributing sterile injecting equipment to people who inject drugs. The Philippine government is fueling a rising human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) epidemic among men who have sex with men through policies that restrict interventions proven to prevent transmission of the virus.

Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity. The House of Representatives began consideration of House Bill 2.

Anti SOGI (Sexual Orientation or Gender Identity) Discrimination Act” in June 2. If approved, it will criminalize discrimination in the employment of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) individuals, and prohibit schools from refusing to register or expelling students on the basis of sexual orientation or gender identity. The Senate has introduced companion legislation, Senate Bill No. Anti- Discrimination Bill (ADB), which had its first hearing in August.

House Bill 2. 67 will also sensitize police and law enforcement officers on LGBT issues and train them to attend to complaints.
