City officials kicked off the second year of its “Pattaya White”
anti-drug campaign with rallies at Pattaya schools 2 and 8.
Public Health Department researcher Bubpa Songsakulchai lectured on the
effects of drug use and methods to prevent it.
The goals of the meetings were to boost public participation in
brainstorming to find ways to effectively tackle drug problems and
encourage youths, business operators and community members to stabilize
the community and overcome the drug problem together.
The same event also will be held at schools 7 and 11 this month. Jutamas
Beauty School also gave free haircuts at the event.
The goal of the “Pattaya White” project is to bring community members
closer, strengthen families and encourage all residents to use their
free time productively, learn the value of education and develop a
balanced and sustainable community. Started amid political upheaval, the
focus has now turned to quashing drug use among youths.
This year’s slogan is “work hard, work fast and work creatively” and
organizers have planned activities along that those themes.
