Provide moral support to former drug addicts, says AADK


JELEBU: Society should not be judgmental but rather provide moral support to former drug addicts as their recovery is a lifelong process, says National Anti-Drugs Agency (AADK) director-general Sutekno Ahmad Belon.

He said as the stigma on people with drug addiction only worsened the situation, it was important for the group to have a strong support system from family and community members for them to get on with their lives.
