Prevention is better than cure!! If we can successfully act the message across that illegal drugs
can ruin one's life, half of our battle is won. in turn, it will help the work of our law enforcement
agencies.

If people are not aware of the harm of illegal drugs, how can they resist the temptation of drugs,
let alone helping drug addicts?!!

Therefore preventive education is very important .EDUCATION AND PUBLICITY are

essential...
