MEDAN - The City Government (Pemko) of Medan, North Sumatra, has announced the construction of literacy parks in a number of locations up to the sub-district level in an effort to prevent drug trafficking, especially among teenagers.

"The Medan City Government will design the hotspots for drugs. We will try to make it a literacy park to educate and teach our children to be better in the future," said Deputy Mayor of Medan Aulia Rachman, quoted by Antara, Saturday, May 14.

He said his party would immediately conduct a mapping of areas prone to drug trafficking.

"The riverbank areas will also be sterilized and used as educational parks, literacy parks for children while being provided with assistance," he said.

According to Aulia Rachman, the high level of drug trafficking and use among teenagers is due to the lack of activities that can divert thoughts to taking drugs.

For this reason, he hopes that the literacy room will be a forum for young people to carry out more positive and useful activities.

"We need prayers and support as well as information from the community. We fight and fight drugs to change the city of Medan for the better," he said.
