POLICE WANT DRUG ADDICTS HELPED, NOT ARRESTED (The Straits Times 10 August pg11)
Malaysia has shown us they truly care for the people by getting agencies to rehabilitate drug addicts instead of giving them the handcuffs. The police have decided to take the step of nipping the problem in the bud by tackling the larger task of going after traffickers and pushers.
I feel that the police deserve to be commended for having a clear aim and putting it into action. This is evident in the decline of heroin and cannabis users as effective measures have been taken to dismantle syndicates dealing in such drugs.

It would be totally useless for drug addicts to be arrested unless the government intends to solve the problem by making them go "cold turkey".
Admitting them to a rehabitlitaion centre would instead solve their addiction problems for good.
