Pahang targets Felda, schools in new anti-drug drive

Pahang's Drug Rehabilitation Committee (JKPD) is launching an aggressive campaign to combat new-age drug threats at the grassroots level. The initial focus will be on Felda settlements and five selected schools in Kuantan, Malaysia.

This proactive intervention stems from intelligence indicating that drug syndicates are employing increasingly sophisticated tactics. They are reportedly producing illicit substances in various deceptive forms designed to fool students. The committee aims to preemptively address this evolving threat.

Datuk Dr. Ahmad Shukri Ismail, Chairman of JKPD Pahang, highlighted the importance of targeting these vulnerable areas. The campaign seeks to build a strong defense against drug proliferation by engaging directly with communities and educational institutions at the foundational level.
