Conclusion
Public participation in narcotics control is crucial. The war against drugs cannot be won by government alone. It requires the cooperation and active participation of the public at large. No anti-drug abuse prevention and control program, no matter how impressive in concept, can be effective without public participation. For this reason, the Dangerous Drugs Board (DDB) has always enlisted the support and participation of the public sector in the formulation and implementation of its policies and programs.
