PERANAN PEMERINTAH DALAM MEMBERANTAS PENYALAHGUNAAN DAN PERDAGANGAN OBAT-OBATAN TERLARANG

Abstract

The existence of illegal drugs is getting worse day by day. There are so many ways that irresponsible parties use in an effort to smuggle these illegal drugs. Even the role of this drug smuggler. Even more worrying, these illegal drugs have entered the territory of the nation's future generations (students). This can be seen from the news quoted by the author regarding drug trafficking at the Faculty of Cultural Sciences (FIB) of the University of North Sumatra (USU). Of course, this incident made my heart cut and teary eyed because the younger generation, who was expected to be the baton for the next generation of the backbone of the country, was infiltrated by irresponsible parties in the circulation of these illegal drugs. The news is as below. Parents and Educators (Teachers and Lecturers) each have a very important role in the growth and development of children. This is the closest person the child meets every day and can understand the child's personality. The role of the government in this case is represented by the National Narcotics Agency (BNN) taking an equally important role in eradicating the abuse and circulation of illegal drugs because BNN has a lot of experience in handling various drug cases. There should be a synergy among parents, educators, and the government in eradicating the circulation of illegal drugs in order to save the future of the nation's next generation.
