THE House should stop this nonsense about a debate on legalizing marjuana. Stop wasting all this time on it for it’s not worth the energy spent.

Do you know that there are nine Asian countries that have a death penalty on drugs including marijuana?

These countries are Japan, Taiwan, Singapore, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Bahrain, Oman, Malaysia and United Arab Emirates.

Let’s follow the lead of these countries instead of trying to follow the lead of a first world country.

We fail to realize that we are a third world country and on the number one list of being the most corrupt country in all of Asia.

Let’s stop and put our efforts into looking into the future of how to feed our ever-growing population and creating industries in our own country. We have one thing no other nation has and that is our natural resources.

At the least, we are number one in something so let’s put all efforts into it instead of letting other countries rape us of our natural resources.

Put all of your heads together and produce a finished product that will bring vast amount of employment to our own unemployed work force.

Filipinos, stop looking for credit for yourself and look at the betterment of the country and Filipino people.

For credit is only good in the banks when you’re making a loan.--ALFRED ACOPAN
