MANILA, Philippines — Groups and healthcare advocates are questioning the qualifications of Philippine National Police chief Camilo Cascolan, among the brains behind the Duterte administration's "war on drugs", as undersecretary at the Department of Health.

 

In a statement, the Alliance of Health Workers called the move a “clear manifestation of the president’s extreme lack of concern for the lives, health, safety and welfare of the health workers and the entire Filipino nation." 

 

They also said the appointment "runs counter to DOH mandate of ensuring the provision of quality health service that every Filipino people deserves and in upholding the quality of life, respect for human dignity and protect the health and safety of the health workers."
