2 THE PROBLEM AND ITS SCOPE

4 Background of the Study

5 Drug addiction is not only a domestic problem but also a worldwide issue. Its

6 rapid increase from being the cause and effect of the problem is one of the main reasons

7 of the unstable and slow development of the country. Rampant consumption of illegal

8 drugs and criminal acts related to drug addiction are some of the major problems faced by

9 the Philippine society. The Drug Prevention Campaign Program is one of the programs of

10 the national and local government in fighting against the drug dependency among all the

11 levels of society. This program will be effective if the government will respond to the

12 needs of the community and if it will incorporate strong monitoring and evaluating

13 components in enforcing the campaign. Drug Prevention Campaign efforts typically

14 focus on minors - children and teens.

15 Drug Prevention Campaign in the Philippines was designed to contribute in the

16 reduction on intake of illicit drugs among all sectors of society by raising the public's

17 awareness and participation. The program is designed to educate the public of the

18 different kinds of illegal drugs and issues associated with it. The campaign commonly

19 uses primary preventive communication through advertising, public relations and

20 promotions, resource development and online communication activities. The Duterte’s

21 administration's response to the Philippines' widespread issue of illicit drug trafficking

22 and drug abuse is known as "Oplan Tokhang.". The War on Drugs and Drug abuse is an

23 issue that many people around the world are dealing with today. The War on Drugs
 1

24 movement was launched with the aim of defining and reducing the illicit drug trade as

25 well as fighting drug traffickers. The campaign was carried out with the assistance of

26 participating countries, which faced several controversies that are still being debated

27 today. The laws were enacted with the aim of lowering the amount of not only drug

28 consumption but drug addicts.

29 According to Badal (2016),"Oplan Tokhang" (Toktok-Hangyo), which aimed to

30 personally talk to those involved in illegal drugs convincing them to stop and surrender to

31 authorities for investigation, verification and rehabilitation, has been seen effective for

32 more and more suspected drug users and pushers are turning themselves to the police.

33 Since the said program gives chance to suspected individuals involved in illegal drugs to

34 change themselves and become one of the good citizens, arrests and killings can be

35 avoided in case they put up a fight with the authorities in the future. According to

36 Regional Prosecutor Jaime Umpa, the said campaign may greatly reduce the number of

37 drug-related cases that reach Office of Regional Prosecutor in Northern Mindanao.

38 Colina IV (2016) added that Oplan Tokhang (Toktok-Hangyo or Knock and Plead) in

39 explaining Oplan Tokhang, Dela Rosa said station commanders will ask the barangay

40 captains to submit a list of residents who are into illegal drugs pushers, dealers, users and

41 couriers. The police intelligence unit will then verify the report and check if the suspects

42 are indeed involved in drugs because there are instances that barangay captains

43 themselves are behind the illegal drug trade and list down names of their rivals. The list

44 might be added or trimmed down after validation but authorities will visit catch suspect at

45 their residence and ask them to stop from peddling or using illegal drugs in their

46 community. Since President Duterte took office 10 months ago and vowed to turn Manila
 2

47 Bay into a dumping ground for dead drug addicts and traffickers, the drug enforcement

48 agency and police have launched more than 53,000 anti-drug operations leading to the

49 arrests of users have surrendered, and officers have shot dead 2.692 suspects during anti-

50 narcotics about 65,000 suspects. According to official police figures, more than one

51 million drug raids since June 2016. Officials were also investigating about 5.700 drug-

52 related deaths (Villamor, 2017).

53 With this, and with the help of Philippine National Police, Sincaban, this study

54 aimed to determine the effectiveness of Oplan Tokhang against illegal drugs.

55 The aimed to determine the effectiveness of Oplan tokhang that was implemented

56 by the Duterte administration and its effects to the surrenderees during the Duterte

57 administration's Oplan TokHang campaign.

58 Theoretical Framework

59 The theoretical framework that the researchers have chosen to use for this study

60 aimed to explain the implementation of oplan tokhang which is referred in this paper as

61 “Effectiveness”. The theory is as follows:

62 The theories to be introduced here is flexibility to the outside world during the

63 war on drugs campaign and rehabilitation process. There may be no absolute theory

64 regarding resilience, but it is the capacity to respond to changes occurring both internally

65 (emotions and cognitive) and externally (environment and physical). Since the

66 researchers will be studying transition, this will be included.

67 The environmentalism theory of B.F Skinner and Albert Bandura can be used as

68 framework as theory in this study. The participants that was rehabilitated and faces

69 different changes. The researchers will be able to look deeper into the actual changes as
 3

70 they observe how they incorporate themselves into the changes brought by Oplan

71 Tokhang using the environmentalism theory.

72 As the theory of Dodes, (2013) a Training and Supervising Analyst Emeritus at

73 the Boston Psychoanlytic Society and Institute) was applied. Every addictive act is

74 preceded by a feeling of overwhelming helplessness or powerlessness. The particular

75 situations or feelings that produce this helplessness are different for every people.

76 Addictive behavior reverses these underlying feeling of helplessness. The behavior is

77 able to do this because taking an addictive action (or even deciding to take this action) is

78 a way of doing something that the person expects will make him feel better, in an act that

79 is completely in his own control.

80 Hence, this action creates a sense of being empowered, of regaining control

81 against helplessness. The reversal of helplessness is the psychological function of

82 addiction.

83 The above-mentioned Lance Dodes theory on drug addiction demonstrated that when a

84 person engages in an addictive activity on a regular basis, he will develop an addiction

85 because his behavior determines it. As a result, when a person engages in that addictive

86 behavior, he experiences gratification, which makes him feel better.

87 The participants in this study had this form of addiction prior to the introduction

88 of Oplan Tokhang. As a result, an illustration is provided to demonstrate how the

89 research revolves around finding answers to the questions raised.

117 Statement of the Problem

118 This study aimed to determine the effects of oplan tokhang to the surrenderees in

119 Barangay Poblacion and Barangay Señor, Sincaban Misamis Occidental after it was

120 implemented.

121 Specifically, it sought to answers the following questions in particular:

122 1. What are the effects of oplan tokhang in the lives of the drug surrenderees after

123 they surrendered to the authority in terms of;

124 1.1 Drug Usage;

125 1.2. Health;

126 1.3. Social life; and

127 1.4. Family relationship?

128 2. How effective is the Oplan Tokhang to the surrenderess of Barangay Poblacion

129 and Barangay Señor as perceived by the surrenderees?

130 Significance of the study

131 The result of this study will be beneficial to the following group of individuals or

132 organizations:

133 Drug Surrenderees. This study would assist drug surrenderees in realizing the

134 changes in their lives as a result of the initiative. This will hopefully

135 provide them with ideas about how to respond to the changes.
 6

136 Barangays Officials. Similarly, authorities should be aware of the improvements

137 that drug surrenderees have experienced as a result of the anti-drug

138 campaign. This will provide them with the information that they need if

139 the campaign will be implemented once again.

140 Future Researchers. This could be used as a source of data for potential

141 researchers, with additional variables, a different location, and different

142 respondents. The knowledge gathered in this study could be used as part

143 of their research literature.

144 Scope and Limitation of the Study

145 This study is limited only in Barangay Poblacion, and Barangay Señor, Sincaban,

146 Misamis Occidental wherein the implementation of Oplan Tokhang was implemented.

147 The results of the study are only applicable in the mentioned Barangay and cannot be

148 applicable to other places in the country. This research looked into the success of oplan

149 tokhang as well as the effects in the lives of the drug surrenderees after they turned

150 themselves to the authorities as part of President Rodrigo Duterte’s anti-drug campaign.

151 The researchers were only interested in effects to their drug usage, health, and social life

152 and family relationship. The respondents of the study were the selected drug surrenderees

153 in Barangay Poblacion and Barangay Señor. Since the proponents are dealing with a

154 sensitive topic, they only asked the respondents’ age, civil status, and economic status as

155 part of their profile. The study’s instrument was a survey questionnaire.

156 Research Methods

157 This section presents the research design, research setting, research respondents,

158 instrument and data gathering procedure that will be used in the study.
 7

159 Research Design. The study employed a descriptive concurrent mixed method.

160 According to Warfa & Dolan, (2017), in the concurrent design, both

161 qualitative and quantitative data are collected in a single phase.

162 Research Settings. This study was conducted at Barangay Poblacion with 50

163 drug surrenderee, and Barangay Señor with 31 drug surrenderees,

164 Sinacaban Misamis Occidental where the implementation of Oplan

165 Tokhang was observed.

166 Research Participants. The participants of this study are 81 drug surrenderees in

167 Sinacaban, Misamis Occidental with 100% male with the age bracket of

168 36-45 years old with 26.73% and most them are married with 47.79%.

169 Research Instrument. The researcher-made questionnaire about the effectiveness

170 of Oplan Tokhang was employed by the reseachers. The researchers first

171 distributed the questionnaires to respondents to assess. The collected data

172 was analyzed to discover the patterns that emerged from the responses of

173 the participants.

174 Validation of Instrument. The instruments were checked by the research adviser

175 and research editor to ensure its validity and reliability. Then, before

176 conducting an interview with the respondents, suggestions and feedback

177 were incorporated.

178 Data Gathering Procedure. The researchers had formulated guide questions

179 which fit to the effectiveness of Oplan Tokhang. The formulated questions

180 were improved by the researchers for the respondents to understand easily.

181 The researchers sought permission from Barangay Captains to conduct the
 8

182 study in their Barangay. The researchers followed the minimum health

183 standards that was implemented by the Inter Agency Task Force (IATF)

184 such as the wearing of facemask and face shield and maintained social

185 distancing. The researchers secured a letter of permission from the

186 Institute of Criminal Justice Education to permit the rersearchers to

187 conduct the study. This was be noted by the Dean of Institute of Criminal

188 Justice Education and Thesis Adviser. The questionnaire was distributed

189 by the researcher to the respondents. Each query was clarified and

190 interpreted to the respondents so that they could understand it easily. The

191 questionnaire was distributed and retrieved by the researchers themselves.

192 The data collected from the field is quantitative.

193 Data Analysis. The collected data was analyzed and summarized using frequency

194 count, percentage and weighted mean. The researchers get the frequency

195 and percentage for the profile of the respondents. This helped the

196 researchers to relevantly interpret the data. Mean was used to get the

197 average response of the respondents to every indicator about the lives of

198 surrenders before and after they surrendered. For a better presentation of

199 the data, tables and charts will be used.

202 3 Often - it means that the program is effective.

203 2 Occasional - it means that the program is fairly effective.

204 1 Stopped - it means that the program is not effective.

205 Definition of Terms

206 Drug Surrenderees. In this study, drug surrenderees refers to the drug

207 personalities who surrendered to the authorities during the implementation

208 of the Oplan Tokhang.

209 Oplan Tokhang. In this study, the term Oplan Tokhang was derived from a

210 Cebuano word “Toktok-Hangyo” which means “knock and plead (make a

229 PRESENTATION, ANALYSIS AND INTERPRETATION OF DATA

230

231 This chapter shows the presentation, analysis and interpretation of the gathered

232 data on the respondent’s response on the Effects of Oplan Tokhang to Drug Surrenderees

233 Sinacaban, Misamis Occidental.

Grand Mean 4.00 Very Often
237

238 Table 1 shows the respondent’s responses on the effects of the Oplan Tokhang on

239 the drug surrendereees in Sinacaban Misamis Occidental in terms of Drug usage. The

240 results revealed that the mean of 4.00 which was interpreted as very often implies that the

241 oplan tokhang is very effective as to not using of illegal drugs. The grand mean of 4.00

242 signifies the the oplan tokhang is very effective in terms of Drug usage.

243 The number of drug users in the Philippines has declined by more than fifty (50)

244 percent from four million in 2016 to 1.67 million in 2019, three years after President

245 Rodrigo Duterte launched a crackdown on drug use, a survey has show (Xinhua, 2020).
 11

246 According to Badal (2016), “Oplan Tokhang” (Toktok-Hangyo), which aimed to

247 personally talk to those involved in illegal drugs convincing them to stop and surrender to

248 authorities for investigation, verification and rehabilitation, has been seen effective for

249 more and more suspected drug users and pushers are turning themselves to the police.

250 Since the said program gives chance to suspected individuals involved in illegal drugs to

251 change themselves and become one of the good citizens, arrests and killings can be

252 avoided in case they put up a fight with the authorities in the future.

1. Engage in physical activities such as sports. 2.68 Often

2. Eating healthy foods. 3.90 Very Often
3. Getting sick. 2.00 Occasional
Grand Mean 2.86 Often
256

257 The above table presents the respondent’s responses on the effects of oplan

258 tokhang in Sinacaban in terms of health. As shown on the table, the highest mean of 3.90

259 reveals that the respondents very often eat healthy foods. The lowest mean of 2.00

260 implies that the respondents occasionaly get sick. Generally, the grand mean of 2.86

261 signifies that the oplan tokhang is effective in terms of health.

262 After having surrendered through the Oplan Tokhang, drug surrenderees are

263 engaged in several activities to cope with drug withdrawal. Others engage in sports

264 activities, do household activities and stay at home reading magazines and other booklets
 12

265 (Martinez & Guadamor, 2017). A healthy mind and body are essential elements in coping

266 with mental health issues such as depression and anxiety, as well as with a substance use

267 addiction. Nutrition often plays an underutilized, undervalued and overlooked role with

268 respect to mental health and addiction recovery Sternlicht, (2020).

269 Table 3

1. Talking to your family members. 3.75 Very often

2. Spending time for bonding with your family. 3.16 Often
3. My family supports me in my decisions. 3.36 Very often
Grand mean 3.42 Very often
272

273 The respondent’s response on the effects of oplan tokhang in Sinacaban in terms

274 family relationship. As gleaned on the table above, the highest mean of 3.75 implies that

275 the respondents talk to their family members very often. While the lowest mean of 3.16

276 also reveals that the respondents often spend time for bonding with their family. Overall,

277 the grand of 3.42 signifies the Oplan Tokhang is very effective in terms of family

278 relationship.

279 Support from family members not only increases the likelihood of successful

280 treatment, it can also help improve psychiatric symptoms, and even prevent relapses

281 (Dooley, 2021). Family support is an important part of recovery. The first part of

282 establishing this support is fixing the bonds and relationships within the family that have

283 been damaged by addiction. While recovery might be a long bumpy road, it results in
 13

284 much better, loving relationships with the family (Uloth, 2021). The family remains the

285 primary source of attachment, nurturing, and socialization for humans in our current

286 society. Each family and each family member are uniquely affected by the individual

287 using substances including but not limited to having unmet developmental needs,

288 impaired attachment, economic hardship, legal problems, emotional distress, and

289 sometimes violence being perpetrated against him or her. In order for treatment to be as

290 effective as possible, all family members must be involved in some capacity (Murray,

291 2019)

296 The respondent’s response on effects of oplan tokhang in Sinacaban in terms of

297 social life. As manifested on the table above, the highest mean of 3.73 interpreted as very

298 often implies that the oplan is very effective in terms of socializing with their neighbors.

299 The lowest mean of 2.53 implies that the respondents often engage in social activities
 14

300 such as religious gatherings, occasional events and etc. Overall, the grand mean of 3.34

301 signifies that the oplan tokhang is very effective in terms of Social life.

302 Building a daily routine also provides a familiar structure that prevents boredom

303 and thoughts about using. Going to bed at a regular time, attending support groups, and

304 making time for new hobbies creates stability and something to look forward to (Juegens,

305 2019).

306 Get a gym membership, take a yoga class, enroll in school, join a sports league,

307 pick up music lessons – do something that is healthy, that makes you happy, and that will

308 introduce you to others who share the same interests. Oftentimes, these sober activities

309 can serve as the best building blocks for proactive, authentic, long-term relationships

310 (Turnbridge, 2021).

311 Another options would be joining churches or getting involved in hobbies that

312 encourage independence as well as positive focus. This takes the mind of past destructive

313 activities while encouraging present-moment awareness (Juergens, 2021).

327 PERCEPTION OF THE RESPONDENTS ON THE EFFECTIVENESS OF

328 OPLAN TOKHANG

329 Problem: In your perception how effective is the Oplan tokhang to you?

330 There were seven (7) themes that emerged on the perception of the respondents as

331 to the effectiveness of oplan tokhang. Six (6) participants responded effective and one (1)

332 responded it was not effective.

333 1. Oplan Tokhang is Effective

334 Theme 1: It has stopped illegal drugs

335 According to Caliwan, (2019), from July 1, 2016 to July 31, 2019, the PNP has

336 conducted a total of 163,622 anti-illegal drugs operations resulting in the arrest of more

337 than 256,000 drug personalities, the death of more than 6,000 in police operations, and

338 the surrender of more than 1,200,000 under Oplan Tokhang. Stop using of illegal drugs is

339 the first thing to do in order to stop addiction. The statement below strongly conveyed

340 how oplan tokhang motivates them to refrain from using illegal drugs.

341 Participant17 shared that,

342
343 I can call it effective because most of the users before have stopped.
344
345 Participant 29 also stated that,
346
347 It is effective because you can see that addicts have stopped.
348
349 Participant 52 said that,
350
 16

351 It is effective to me. Because now I have stopped using drugs

352
353 Participant 71 added that,
354
355 It was really more effective because I noticed that all of us didn't
356 use drugs anymore.
357
358 The responses above show that the respondents already stopped using illegal

359 drugs because of oplan tokhang. Oplan Tokhang motivates them to refrain from using

360 illegal drugs. Oplan Tokhang which was first developed in Davao City Police Office

361 (DCPO) by then Police City Director Police Senior Supt Ronald Dela Rosa was intended

362 to speed up drug-problem solution by visiting houses of the illegal drug personalities and

363 asking them to stop the illicit acts (Tamayo & Adrian, 2018).

364 Theme 2: It rehabilitates surrenderees

365 According to Hudson (2021), from the moment an addict decides to seek

366 treatment, they are preparing to go through a drastic change in their life. While

367 this change is for the better, it comes with its own set of challenges to face,

368 starting with detoxification. Oplan Tokhang gives them the chance to rehabilitate

369 and get back to their normal life.

370 Participant 21 stated that,

371
372 It's really effective because we are being rehabilitated.
373
374 The response above shows that the oplan tokhang motivates them to rehabilitate.

375 The goal of drug rehabilitation is to stop drug use and learn the tools to build a productive

376 life. That may sound easy enough, but it can often be very challenging. For many, the

377 most difficult part is acknowledging a need for treatment (Gilles, 2021).

378 Theme 3: It is life-changing

 17

379 According to Gilles (2021), once you are free from drugs, you have the

380 ability to think more clearly and can educate yourself about your addiction.

381 Learning about your addiction means gaining insight into which people, events,

382 sensory experiences and habits trigger cravings for drugs. Most drug rehab

383 facilities can help you explore those triggers so that you can make deliberate

384 efforts to avoid or manage them when you transition back into your daily life.

385 Participants 26 and 34 reiterates that,

386
387 It is very effective because everyone has been changed.
388
389 Participant 49 also stated this,
390
391 It is effective especially for those drug addicts who have been
392 changed.
393
394 Participant 59 added that,
395
396 It was effective, because of the oplan tokhang I decided to change.
397
398 Participant 79 said this,
399
400 Very effective and life-changing.
401
402 Participant 78 also stated this,
403
404 I have changed so much in myself since the start of tokhang.
405
406 The responses above show that their life was changed after they surrendered to

407 the oplan tokhang. “The best thing that happened to me when I was reformed from illegal

408 drugs is when I came to know the Lord Jesus Christ. We may have different struggles,

409 mine was illegal drugs back then, but these are all part of God’s plan for us to know

410 Him,” Mr. Bulatao said on attesting the Positive effect of oplan tokhang (Austria, 2018).

411 Theme 4: It has a good effect on physical attributes

 18

412 Almost 20 percent of individuals who have been able to fight their

413 addiction to drugs or alcohol have found themselves becoming obese after rehab

414 and many more struggle with an eating disorder, compulsive overeating or what is

415 now being called “food addiction” (Ross, 2019). Weight gain is a common side

416 effect of addiction treatment. It's very normal for people to gain weight after they

417 stop drinking. While this is not ideal for most recovering addicts, there are

418 strategies to deal with weight gain in recovery without allowing it to overwhelm

419 you.

420 Participant 53 uttered this,

421
422 Effective because I have already gained weight than before.
423
424 Participant 67 also said that,
425
426 It's effective because before I was very thin but now, I’m a little
427 fat.
428
429 The response above shows that because of oplan tokhang, the respondents have

430 gained weight. Cowan and Devine (2012) were able to show that nutrition education and

431 changes in diet offered to men in a residential treatment program improved eating habits

432 and reduced weight gain during recovery. While it is important to put your recovery from

433 drugs or alcohol first, there are steps you can take to improve your overall health and

434 well-being.

435 Theme 5: It has fixed ruined life

436 Treatment aims to return people to constructive functioning in their

437 families, workplaces, and communities, in addition to stopping drug misuse.

438 According to research that tracks individuals in treatment over extended periods,

439 most people who get into and remain in treatment stop using drugs, decrease their
 19

440 criminal activity, and improve their occupational, social, and psychological

441 functioning (National Institute on Drug Abuse, 2018).

442 Participant 60 reiterate this,

443
444 Very effective because it changed the direction of my life.
445
446 Participamt 61 also said this,
447
448 Very effective because our lives have been straightened out.
449
450 Participant 76 also added that,
451
452 It was effective because the ruined life that we had was fixed.
453

454 The responses above show that after they surrendered to the oplan tokhang, the

455 direction of their life was placed in the right path. In the past, you probably used to spend

456 the majority of your energy and time using drugs or alcohol. Now that you are sober, you

457 should spend that time with hobbies and other things that you enjoy. Participating in

458 healthy and fun activities can help to prevent relapse (Mendez, 2021).

459 Theme 6: It has given them Paranoia

460 The government claims that more than a million users and street-level

461 dealers have voluntarily “surrendered” to the police. Many do so out of fear of

462 being killed otherwise. Many who surrendered do not necessarily have a drug

463 abuse problem as they surrendered preemptively to avoid being killed if they for

464 whatever reason ended up on the watch list. (Felbab-Brown, 2017)

465 To intensify the administration's campaign against illicit drugs, it is

466 conducting this kind of operation that results in the deaths of other drug users.

467 Participant 72 stated this,

468
469 Maybe it was effective because we're afraid to be killed.
 20

470
471 The response above shows that due to the rampant killings of drug users and

472 pushers, some of them have voluntarily surrendered because they fear they will be the

473 next to be killed. Both police officers and members of neighborhood councils are afraid

474 not to participate in the killing policies, fearing that if they fail to comply, they will be

475 put on the kill lists themselves (Felbab-Brown, 2017).

476

477 2. Oplan Tokhang is Not Effective

478 Theme 1: The Program still has a room for improvement

479 According to Dizon (2018), the survey also showed that 71 percent

480 believed there were fewer drug addicts in their localities in the past six months,

481 while 12 percent said the number of drug addicts was the same as before. Only 9

482 percent thought there were more drug addicts now. The administration had fought

483 hard on the fight against illegal drugs in the Philippines.

484 Participant 4 stated this,

485
486 Not as effective as the way people view us as drug addicts yet.
487
488 Participant 14 shared this,
489
490 For me, it is not totally effective because there are still a
491 lot of drug users in the Philippines.
492
493 Participant 18 added this,
494
495 Not effective because there are addicts who surrendered
496 but never stopped using drugs.
497
498 Participant 28 stated that,
499
500 It doesn’t seem to be effective as there are still some
501 surrenders who still return to using shabu.
502
 21

503 Participant 35 said that,

504
505 I can’t say that it was really effective because not everyone
506 was rehabilitated.
507
508 Participant 74 aslo added that,
509
510 It is effective but not so much because there are still others
511 who do not stop.
512
513 The response above show that despite on all the efforts and strategy of the

514 administration to fight against illegal drugs, it is undeniable that there are still drug users

515 in this country. Around 1.67 million or two out of one hundred Filipinos aged 10 to 69

516 are current users of drugs, according to the results of the 2019 National Household

517 Survey on the Patterns and Trends of Drug Abuse, released by the Dangerous Drugs

518 Board (Fleming, 2020).

540 SUMMARY OF FINDINGS, CONCLUSION, AND RECOMMENDATIONS

541

542 This chapter shows the summary of the gathered data, the conclusion, generated

543 from the findings of the study and the recommendations that the researchers would offer

544 based on the result of the study.

545 Summary of findings

546 This study entitled “Oplan Tpkhang: Its Effects to the Drug Surrenderees in

547 Sinacaban Misamis Occidental” was conducted to determine the effects of Oplan

548 Tokhang on the drug surrenderees in Sinacaban, Misamis Occidental. The researchers

549 used a concurrent-descriptive method of research to determine the effects of oplan

550 tokhang with researcher-made questionnaire used as a data gathering instrument.

551 In the respondent’s responses on the effects of Oplan Tokhang in Sinacaban

552 Misamis Occidental in terms of Drug usage, the results revealed that the oplan tokhang is

553 very effective in terms of Drug usage as seen in the grand mean of 4.00. The respondent’s

554 responses on the effects of Oplan Tokhang in Sinacaban Misamis Occidental in terms of
 23

555 health also reveals that oplan tokhang is effective in terms of health as revealed in the

556 grand mean of 2.86. In terms of family relationship, the grand mean of 3.42 signifies that

557 the Oplan Tokhang is very effective in terms of family relationship. The respondent’s

558 response on effects of oplan tokhang in Sinacaban in terms of social life got the grand

559 mean of 3.34 which signifies that the oplan tokhang is very effective in terms of Social

560 life. The perception of the respondents toward the effectiveness of oplan tokhang

561 signifies that it was effective. However, there are few respondents who said it was not

562 effective and still have a room for improvement.

563 Conclusion

564 From the summary of findings of the study, it can be concluded that the program

565 of oplan tokhang was implemented very well because it was effective in terms of

566 stopping the surrenderees from using illegal drugs and it also helps them to improve their

567 physical attributes. The oplan tokhang has given them the chance to build a strong

568 relationship with their family and to the community. Oplan Tokhang has given them the

569 chance to rebuild their ruined life and regained their self-confidence on socializing with

570 others. However, there is still a room for improvement in implementing this program

571 because there are still drug users out there that still using illegal drugs and there are some

572 surrenderees that are still unrehabilitated.

573 Recommendations

574 Authorities and Barangay Officials

575 1. The Police and Barangay Official should conduct regular monitoring on

576 the status of surrenderees in their respective Barangay.

 24

577 2. Barangay Officials should launch skills training, technical and

578 vocational livelihood programs such us welding, automotive,

579 cookery, and etc. They should also launch drug awareness program

580 entitled “life does not rewind, say no to drugs” by this, the

581 surrenderees will be even more educated and divert their attention

582 to someyhing significant.

583 3. The Barangay Officials should also consider on giving them Physical

584 activities such as sports fest that will able them to socialize with

585 their fellow surrenderees and to the community.

586 4. The police should conduct regular seminars about drug education and

587 how to stay away from drugs.

588 5. Barangay Anti-Drug Council should evaluate the lists of their

589 surrenderees if all of them are already undergone rehabilitation.
590 6. Rehabilitate those unrehabilitated.

591 Drug users and unrehabilitated surrenderees

592 1. They should stop using illegal drugs and surrender to authorities.

593 2. Find distractions in order to divert your attention to other things rather

594 than using illegal drugs.

595 3. To those unrehabilitated drug surrenderees they should go to their
596 respective Barangay Anti-drug Council for immediate action.
597 Drug surrenderees

598 1. They should continue their progress until they get back to their normal

599 life.
 25

600 2. They should participate in seminars that will be conducted by the

601 Barangay Officials and Authorities.

602 Family

603 1. The family members should continue to give moral support and

604 guidance to their loved ones.

605 2. The family should monitor their loved ones and help them to find

606 distractions for them to forget illegal drugs.

607 Institute of Criminal Justice Education

608 1. Conduct anti drug symposium program that aims to address the needs of

609 surrenderees on drug awareness.

610 Future Researchers

611 This research presents the effects of Oplan Tokhang on the drug

612 surrenderees in Sinacaban, Misamis Occidental. This can be a basis to

613 your possible research, with new context and wider scope.
