Marcos presidential bid, term extensions, mental health law | Evening wRap

Today on Rappler:

Former senator Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr, only son and namesake of the late dictator Ferdinand Marcos, is eyeing a bid to become president of the Philippines. Under the draft constitution of Malacañang’s Consultative Committee (Con-Com), there will be no term extension for President Rodrigo Duterte and Vice President Leni Robredo. Quezon City police say a congested jail cell likely led to the death of a man arrested in the government’s crackdown on loiterers. Duterte has signed the landmark Mental Health Law, which would provide affordable and accessible mental health services for Filipinos. Canada will become the first G7 country to legalize the consumption and cultivation of cannabis from October 17.
