It specifically attempts to bring into focus the features of the said campaign programs of the national governments and further ascertain the precipitating issues and concerns. Aided by documentary analysis, this study accounts for the latest statutes and mandates pertaining to implementation of these initiatives. In the course of assessment, this review provides a critique on the commonalities and points of distinctions of the various programs in order to serve as baseline reference in the formulation of an ASEAN model relative to the war on drugs.
