KLANG, Jan 16 — Negative stigma amongst members of society towards drug abuse and addiction is one of the factors that prevent those involved from seeking professional treatment and help for their problems, said Health Minister Khairy Jamaluddin.
“Recently, we looked at the case of a teenager who was accused of stealing mosque funds and saw how he was humiliated. I don’t think that is the way our society should treat people. Addiction must be treated as a medical concern,” he said. Khairy said the matter was raised following the approach used by non-governmental organisations , especially the Malaysian AIDS Council, which, to some extent, has succeeded in changing society’s perception of those living with HIV-AIDS.
