Dear Members WNF,

Substance Abuse has become the biggest epidemic in the entire world.  In the 
United States more priority is to reduce the drug use and availability which is 
based in three strategies to stop the use before it is used, healing the drug 
users and disrupting the market of illicit drugs.  Last year alone the 
president requested an increase $ 14.1 billion dollars to support the 3three 
strategies, however he actually provided for an increase in FY 2009 by $ 459.0 
million (3.4 percent over 2008 budget.  While in east African countries are 
striving to promote the poor citizens to cultivate more Khat (Marungi Trees for 
easy cash making forgetting the hazards that are affecting youth in developing 
countries. In Ethiopia, Kenya, Somalia and other countries like Uganda produces 
3 times more then the food they cultivate for consummation in their areas. In 
most Air ports of East Africa drug trafficking has grown high including ports 
like Mombasa, Dar es Salam and others at Horn of Africa. Tobacco has become 
another big killer today yet in some parts of East Africa tobacco and Alcohol 
is promoted as safe substance.  I think WNF need to consider some of these 
topics and draw a conclusion and make a point of Action. As mentioned some time 
back action taken by WNF can easily be backed up by International Narcotic 
Control. As we might have known Southern Sudan has just emerged from the 21 
years civil war. Most people came out with post war traumatic disorders. Second 
we need to acknowledge that in a civil war the army and the rebels always use 
drugs like Khat (Marungi) Cola, Cannabis Opium poppy cultivation and Tobacco 
including Alcohol. In Southern Sudan the consumption of alcohol and Tobacco is 
unimaginable if drums of alcohol finished in 3 days. While the tobacco 
factories are as well swelling with more bundles of dollars. Well with much 
respect how do we answer this question {Is substance abuse not an epidemic}. 
However to conclude East African countries should propose a budget summary that 
also details some agencies resources to function that can categorize activities 
of emergencies to control drugs. For example resources that may fund efforts to 
educate citizens on the danger of drug use designed as prevention. Also similar 
funds can be used in supporting drug control programs outside the Southern 
Sudan.  Other functions should include treatment, domestic law enforcement and 
interdiction.  Under this proposal more resources can be obtained from the 
United Nations Office on drugs and crime (UNODC) for interdiction activities 
realize an increase over the previous Fiscal year. While domestic law 
enforcement and prevention and other programs that has no health hazards are 
reduced.

Dear Ruffino.

Substance Abuse has become the biggest epidemic in the entire world.  In the 
United States more priority is given  to reduce the drug use and availability 
which is based in three strategies to stop the use before it is used, healing 
the drug users and disrupting the market to illicit drugs.  Last year alone the 
president requested an increase $ 14.1 billion dollars to support the 3 three 
strategies, however he actually provided an increase in FY 2009 by $ 459.0 
million (3.4 percent over 2008 budget.  While the East African countries are 
striving to promote the poor citizens to cultivate more Khat (Marungi Trees for 
easy cash making forgetting the hazards that are affecting youth in developing 
countries. In Ethiopia, Kenya, Somalia and other countries like Uganda produces 
3 times more then the food they cultivate for consummation in their homes. In 
most Air ports of East Africa drug trafficking has grown high including ports 
like Mombasa, Dar es Salam and severs othersto mentione few the  Horn of 
Africa. Tobacco has become another big killer today yet in some parts of East 
Africa tobacco and Alcohol is promoted as safe substance.  I think WNF need to 
consider some of these topics and draw a conclusion and make a point of Action. 
As mentioned some time back action  taken by WNF can easily be backed up by 
International Narcotic Control. In most of these countries mentioned have a 
serious issue of starvation are feed by UN.

This is a pity. In the developed countries people fight using ideas which 
should benefit the population. But for us we fight those who think differently 
from us. God save us!
