KUALA LUMPUR: The dominance of synthetic drugs such as amphetamine-type stimulants (ATS) in the local market poses a challenge to the Home Ministry in eradicating drug abuse, says Datuk Seri Dr Shamsul Anuar Nasarah (pic).
The Deputy Home Minister said the shift in drug trends, particularly towards synthetic substances, has made it increasingly difficult for enforcement agencies like the police and the National Anti-Drugs Agency (AADK) to combat the issue.
