Takeo: Mr. Wei Samnang, Governor of Takeo Province and Chairman of the Provincial Drug Control Committee, has urged students and all youth to actively participate in promoting the effects and dangers of drugs widely, especially to stay away from all types of drugs.

The appeal was made on the occasion of Mr. Wei Samnang presiding over the International Day against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking and the burning of drug paraphernalia held in Trapeang Thom commune, Tram Kak district, Takeo province on July 30, 2026.

On that occasion, Mr. Wei Samnang emphasized that drugs are the most dangerous drugs that destroy the mind, health, and body, and can lead to the loss of life. As young people, the backbone of the nation, we must never get involved in or fall into the trap of drugs. We must never want to try them. On the contrary, youth must work together to become a driving force in promoting, preventing and curbing drug abuse in order to jointly build communities, families and the entire national society free of drugs.

At the same time, the provincial governor also advised and encouraged competent authorities at all levels to increase regular inspections in various vulnerable locations. And sign contracts with business owners, including guesthouses, entertainment clubs, karaoke shops (KTV), border gates and other entertainment areas, so that they can closely cooperate with the authorities in preventing, curbing and suppressing drug crimes as well as other crimes with high efficiency.
