Thousands of young men have wasted their lives because of illicit drugs in our country,
Indonesia. They were mostly victims of a cruel environment, a broken-home family, of
ignorance, of curiosity or particularly of the illegal drugs mafia. It is estimated that around 4
million people in Indonesia illicit drug users about one in every 50 Indonesians. In the
capital city of Jakarta, it is estimated that three out of ten young people are users. A study by
the International Labor Organization (ILO) office in Indonesia showed that around four per
cent of illicit drug users in the country are children under 17 years old. Two out of ten users
are involved in illicit trafficking. Some teenagers start being involved in producing and
trafficking drugs between the ages of 13 and 15. Chairman of the National Narcotics
Coordinating Board said that the countrys illicit drug users include around 7,000 junior high
school students, over 10,000 senior high school students and about 800 elementary school

People usually take drugs to have fun or escape the pressures of life. Drug users among
students are particularly worrying. It was reported that a number of traffickers operate around
schools by cheating, forcing or giving free illicit drugs to students. Once the students are
addicted, they then go to the traffickers to buy the illicit drugs. If they do not have money,
they steal it from their family members or others. Narkoba is the Indonesian term for
narcotics, psychotropic and addictive substances. Psychotropic substances popularly called
Ecstasy and Shabu-shabu are considered favorites among the middle and upper class users.
However, for an increasing number of young people, the drug of choice is low-grade heroin,
known as putaw, which is cheap, plentiful, but potentially deadly. These drugs are readily
available in all major urban areas, including schools, Karaoke lounges, bars, cafes,
discotheques, nightclubs, and they even spread into remote villages. Therefore it is not
surprising that drug users continue to increase from year to year.
