Hotnews-255504290007.jpg

SAKON NAKHON, 29 April 2012 (NNT) – A Deputy Prime Minister has pointed out that the achievement of the goal to eliminate drugs requires an efficient coordination between administrative authorities and the police, while adding that drug eradication should be promoted as a regional agenda.

During his visit to deliver drug prevention and suppression policies to local authorities in Sakon Nakhon province, Deputy Prime Minister Pol. Capt. Chalerm Yubumrung has reiterated that the fight against drugs is a pressing national agenda, which must be achieved promptly. He explained that the suppression of drugs cannot be fulfilled by the government alone. However, the main players in drug suppression, which include provincial governors, local administrative officials and police officers must work together to closely monitor the situation and efficiently solve the problem. In the meantime, a rehabilitation program should be carried out for those who need it, alongside drug suppression measures.

Besides being a national agenda, the Deputy PM also stressed that drug eradication should become a regional agenda. Thailand must coordinate with China, Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos to stop drug trafficking along the borders. Serious penalties must be applied to both drug traffickers and drug users.

Pol. Capt. Chalerm stated currently Udon Thani and Kalasin have been piloted as model provinces in drug fighting

"provincial governors, local administrative officials and police officers must work together to closely monitor the situation and efficiently solve the problem" ohohoho this is very new. No one in the past dared to suggest a so revolutionary idea. What about eradicate corruption, poverty, floods, car accidents, queues at Suvanapum and mosquito bites too?

"Serious penalties must be applied to both drug traffickers and drug users."

It's already the case and it does not work.

Now, if the will of this person (Khun Chalerm) is sincere, we have to support his efforts. Maybe he'll fail like all the previous ones but, at least, he tries.

Two months ago Chalerm said that the drug problems will be solved by next year. Later, Yingluck said it could take 18 months. These people are so clever that I just don't know who to believe !!

efficiently solve the problem: Remember when Thaksins war against drugs killed almost 3000 people....

I guess not many will agreed to their vows until the day the public sees that all those officials from prison, police and any other public enforcer authorities who cahoot in drugs are being prosecuted under the same law.(rather than just dismiss or transferred)

Otherwise, all vows and statements are flaws !

I would rather support a buffalo taking a sh*t in the dining room than support Mr. Charlem

Yeah right. like all the other things hes going to do something about. Is it any wonder why most people do not trust the government? I don't think so.

Of course we know who to believe. NONE OF THEM.

Good luck, nob head!

Achieve that, and Thailand will be the first country in the world to do so.

Then again, Thailand is the first county to have MPs that drink alcohol, watch porn, vote on behalf of absent members, and has a PM who never goes to work, all in the honour of the House; so I guess anything is possible with regard to Chalerm stoppin the use of drug taking in the House of Parliament, by MPs. wink.png

Did he make this statement before or after he had his daily ear medication?

I expect with the severity of his illness he takes his medication 24/7.

We are all behind you, Pol Capt Chalerm.

First place to start your drug eradication process would seem to be the officers in the Thai Prison Service, then perhaps their close associates in the Police.

I can feel the country getting cleaner already.

Did you mean "ear" or it was a simple misspelling of "rear"?
