Delegates from the 10 ASEAN member countries, the ASEAN Committee and Japan gathered in Hanoi Tuesday to formulate a plan of action on drug prevention and control.

The Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) aims to reduce the cultivation of opium poppies in a sustainable manner and the illegal use of drugs in each member country. The plan is included in the ASEAN Political Security Community and the Socio-Cultural Community Blueprints.

Addressing the event, Lieutenant General Vu Hung Vuong, deputy head of the Vietnam General Department of Police, said the workshop would be helpful to draw up a single plan of action to achieve a drug free ASEAN by 2015.
