Rayong and the National Command Center for Drugs are recruiting area
students from local schools to use social media to battle against drug
use.
The Rayong Public Relations Department launched the program Sept. 22 at
Mabtaputpantittayakarn School, getting 60 older students to set up a
Facebook page to share information, spread government news and gather
intelligence on classmates using drugs.
Mabtaputpantittayakarn Principal Niyom Bunyanam said the school always
has made drug prevention a priority through screening programs that weed
out high-risk students from the general population. But getting peers to
watch each other would be another useful tool, he said.
