MANILA, Philippines — Bahagyang umigi ang lagay ng bansa pagdating sa law and order sa pandaigdigang antas, ayon sa pinakabagong pag-aaral na isinagawa ng isang international analytics and advise firm.
Lumalabas na ika-30 ang Pilipinas sa 115 na bansang sinuri sa law and order index ng "Gallup Global Law and Order 2021" report, bagay na sumusukat sa tiwala sa mga pulis, kaligtasan at kriminalidad sa iba't ibang panig ng daigdig.

Sa naturang pag-aaral na isinagawa sa 120,000 katao noong 2020, nakakuha ang Pilipinas ng law and order index score na 85 — kapantay ng United Kingdom, France, Egypt, Ireland, Croatia at Hungary.
Mas mataas ang grado ng Pilipinas sa 2021 report kumpara sa law and order index score nito noong 2020 (pag-aaral ginawa noong 2019), kung saan nakakuha ng 84 ang bansa. Gayunpaman, 144 bansa ang sinuri sa report noong nakaraang taon.
Ilan sa mga itinanong sa mga respondents ang mga sumusunod:
- In the city or area where you live, do you have confidence in the local police force?
- Do you feel safe walking alone at night in the city or area where you live?
- Within the last 12 months, have you had money or property stolen from you or another household member?
- Within the past 12 months, have you been assaulted or mugged?
"Nearly seven in 10 people worldwide in 2020 said they feel safe walking alone at night where they live (72%) and have confidence in their local police (71%)," sabi ng Gallup.
"About one in eight (13%) said they had money or property stolen from them or another household member in the past year, and 6% said they were assaulted or mugged."
Dahil sa COVID-19 pandemic, bigo ang Gallup na maitulak ang kanilang surveys sa dalawang bansa na nakakuha ng pinakamataas at pinakamababang puntos noong mga nakaraang taon: Singapore at Afghanistan.
Lumabas ang ganitong datos kahit na aprubado na ng International Criminal Court ang full probe sa human rights situation at madugong war on drugs ni Pangulong Rodrigo Duterte, bagay na pumatay na sa lagpas 6,000 katao. Ang ilan dito, sinasabing napatay ng otoridad nang "walang due process."
