A. Drug addiction
It is evidently that our country is facing the menace of drug addiction. Being under the
influence of drugs for a long term, can completely destroy the sense of self and make its taker
commit heinous crimes while he remains under its effect. As for me who is enrolled in the
NSTP100 program, I know what is right to do. It is to educate and encourage people not to use or
even try drugs, because these can harm their family and the society. Through raising awareness
to my fellow youth about the consequences of drug addiction, I can make a positive impact to our
society. Also, reaching out through visiting to people who are undergoing rehabilitation will be a
great help to our countrymen to encourage them for overcoming their addiction to drugs.
