Lately, the drug circulation in Indonesia is very worrying. Unfortunately, the East Jakarta National Narcotics Agency (BNN) cannot be able to handle it optimally due to lack of personnel, which is only 25 personnel.

We need more personnel to uncover drug cases in our area

"We need more personnel to uncover drug cases in our area," told Rehabilitation Section Head of East Jakarta BNN, Budi Firdaus Darmasila, Saturday (4/25).

He mentions the current personnel is only 25 personnel, consisting of 3 police personnel, 5 freelance employees, and 17 civil servants. To solve the lack of personnel, his side has involved some public figures and youths who have concern for the danger of drugs.

"We're involving the youth mass organization, Non-Government Organization (NGOs) and public figures in East Jakarta to fight drug, especially in drug-prone areas such as Matraman, Pramuka, and Buaran," he explained.
