An effective solution to put an end to drug abuse
in the commune is establishing self-run inter-family teams,
which now number 38 across five hamlets with Chieng Ha hamlet along having 15
teams. Teams elected reputable people as their heads who are
responsible for knowing well local social security and order and then informing
them to households. Together with team members, they visit each family to talk
about the harmful effects of drugs and encourage drug addicts to undergo
rehabilitation or use methadone as an alternative treatment.
Awareness campaigns on drug prevention and control, movements "All
people stay united to safeguard national security”, "All people stay united to
build cultural lives” are closely combined together. As drug prevention and
control goal is enlisted in the criteria to recognize the civilized status for
families and residential areas, families and residential areas have jointly
fought drugs scourge. In 2018, 83 percent of households in Mai Ha won the title
of civilized families while four out of five hamlets became cultural
residential areas.
Ha Van Chuc, deputy chief of the communal public security force,
said in order to repel drugs vice in the commune, the communal and district
public security forces worked closely together to launch crackdown on crimes,
investigate and bust drug rings, bring them to the justice in line with the
law, educate violators in families and residential areas, and make a list of drug
addicts who have to enter in compulsory rehabilitation facilities./.
