r/worldnews - Duterte signs Magna Carta of the Poor. The law tasks government agencies to ensure that the rights of poor Filipinos for food, work, housing, education and health care are met.

All I read until now about Duterte was horrible and this seems surprisingly humane. Can anyone from the Philippines elaborate on this matter? We’ve always had good laws. It’s their implementation, if they even are implemented, that’s the problem.
