Kelantan deputy menteri besar Fadzli Hassan said the agencies tasked with combating drug addiction must work together instead of blaming the weaknesses of others. PETALING JAYA: Tackling Kelantan's drug abuse problem is not solely the state government's responsibility but needs to be handled by all relevant parties, says deputy menteri besar Fadzli Hassan.
Fadzli said one of the main reasons for the east coast's drug addiction issue is its international border with Thailand, Berita Harian reported.
He said this made Kelantan among the first states that drug distribution syndicates would enter and operate in, before narcotics are distributed in other states.
"When you have borders with other countries, you reap the benefits, but also suffer the ill effects. Kelantan has international borders, not just state borders.
