SKOUW PAPUA - Thousands of coastal communities and borders of Indonesia are united in the Anti-Drug Declaration, signaling a strong commitment to combat illicit drug trafficking in maritime and land areas. The event, which was held at the PLBN Skouw RI-PNG Market, is part of a series of International Anti Narcotics Day (HANI) 2024.

Around 4,400 people from various elements of society, including community groups, community organizations, students, students, State Civil Apparatus (ASN), the TNI/Polri, and relevant stakeholders, were also present in this declaration. This momentum is a clear proof of joint determination to realize a Drug-Free Indonesia.

The head of the Indonesian National Narcotics Agency (BNN RI), Komjen Pol. Martinus Hukom SIK, MSI, in his remarks emphasized, "The coastal and border community of Indonesia, with the spirit of unity and integrity, expresses its commitment to fight all forms of narcotics abuse and illicit trafficking. We fully support the government's policy in the Prevention and Eradication of Narcotics Abuse and Circulation (P4GN)."

This declaration is an important strategy for BNN as the leading institution of P4GN to strengthen the resilience of people in coastal and border areas. This area, with Indonesia's geographical condition which has a long land border and wide and open sea borders, is an easy target for a network of drug syndicates.

"This declaration confirms the importance of synergy and collaboration of all elements of society in fighting narcotics crimes," said Komjen Pol. Martinus Hukom.

As a form of joint commitment, the declaration participants signed a statement against drug abuse. This event was also marked by the awarding of Awards and thanks by the Head of BNNP Papua to parties who contributed to supporting the Anti-Drug Declaration of Coastal and Borderal Communities in Skouw RI-PNG, namely PLBN Skouw, the RI-PNG Pamtas Task Force, and the Skouw Naval POST.

This Anti-Drug Declaration is an echo of enthusiasm to create a Shining Indonesia, where coastal and border communities are at the forefront of fighting drugs. Let's protect Indonesia from the dangers of drugs together. (ADV)
