Dr. Robles, 2016-2020 president of PPhA, along with two other filipino pharmacists, J. Casauay and B. Bulatao, prepared a report on counterfeit drugs and laws governing these here in our country. This is published by WHO using this link: https://www.who.int/medicines/areas/coordination/SSFFC_Report.pdf
