Leaving drugs for another vice

BYE, DRUGS. Because of the intensified campaign against illegal drugs that has claimed many lives, many drug users are reportedly now trying to completely depart from their vices and try something else. Just like going to cockfights, said one EAR informer. "Kay naa ma'y uban nga di mabuhi og wala'y bisyo (Because some people cannot live without vices)," he said.

CRACKDOWN. A wife of a self-confessed drug user reacted: "Na, kapait og akong bana mosulod anang laing bisyo. Nalipay na gani ta nga duna'y nakapit-ol sa ilang bisyo (It's a shame if my husband gets another vice when I am already happy now that someone is finally driving him away from vice)." She hopes there will also be a crackdown against other forms of vices.
