Philippines
The Elon game: Musk’s vision of the future adds the Philippines as a country where politicians are discussing lower ages of criminal responsibility. In the source, the Philippines is a comparison case for Sweden’s move toward Child Prison Units and the broader Youth Criminal Responsibility debate.
The Philippines appears in Peace fire: further US-Iran strikes as an Asian elder-care law case. The episode says one proposed bill would criminalise elder neglect and abuse, with punishment of up to ten years in prison.
In the wiki, the Philippines anchors the more punitive end of Filial Piety Laws. The case raises the same question as Malaysia and Telangana: whether punishment can protect older people without a stronger Elder Care State Capacity base.
