Yunnan Offers Medicine to Cambodia for Drug Abstaining

China's Yunnan Province has offered medicine worth 390,000 RMB yuan (about US$48,800) to the Cambodian government for helping Cambodian drugger to abstain from drug addiction.

 

Li Hanbei, vice governor of Yunnan Province and head of the visiting Yunnan anti-drug delegation, handed over the medicine to Teng Savong, secretary general of Cambodia's National Authority for Combating Drugs (NACD), on Monday.

 

The medicine, to be used for about 1,500 druggers, is developed and produced by Kunming, Yunnan Province, and has already widely used at Yunnan and other provinces in China.

 

Li said he hopes the medicine would help some Cambodian drug addicts abstain from drugging.

 

He also said that the drug issues affect the social and economic development of both China and Cambodia. He hopes China and Cambodia would strengthen exchanges and cooperation on combating drugs, saying that Yunnan is willing to do its best to offer support and help on the area.

 

Teng Savong thanked for the help. He said that Cambodia has been increasingly threatened by drug addicts and drug trafficking in recent year, and the number of registered druggers in the country has reached 6,800, most of them young people.

 

Teng said Cambodia and Yunnan Province all belong to the great Mekong sub-region, and Yunnan has lots of good experience on drug combating which Cambodia can learn and benefit from.

 

Li and his delegation arrived on Sunday for a five-day visit at the invitation of Cambodia's National Authority for Combating Drugs.
