: Home Minister Datuk Seri Saifuddin Nasution Ismail has disclosed that drug addiction is a serious concern in several areas of Kedah, Kelantan, and Terengganu.
“When analysing the data, the police used two methods: the 100,000 population category and the 10,000 population category, to assess the severity of drug addiction in different areas,” Saifuddin Nasution explained. He explained that the mapping exercise was conducted by these four agencies in response to the World Drug Report 2023, which highlighted an upward trend of global drug addiction.
“Over the next six months, Datuk Ruji Ubi, the Home Ministry’s secretary-general, will develop strategies and mobilise the relevant agencies. We will then assess the effectiveness of these programmes, and make necessary adjustments,” he said. “I came across this news yesterday, and will request a comprehensive report from the relevant authorities,” he said.
