UTUSAN MALAYSIA reported that Selangor Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Dr Mohamad Khir Toyo has suggested a settlement similar to the Felda land scheme be set up for hardcore drug addicts to deter them from going back to the habit. 

He said such a settlement or village would help create a conducive environment, where they would live with their families and not have contacts with drug sellers.
