Say no to drugs

Good morning ladies and gentlemen, before I begin to present my speech, let me express my thankful to .............................. who has helped me in learning English and for the time he gives me to deliver my speech. This morning I would like to talk about” drugs”
It sounds classical if we talk about drugs but it is better for us as the young people to remind each other so that we won’t be trapped in a situation in which we will regret in the future. As we all know from the mass media such as television, radio, newspaper even internet, the drug business has been developing greatly. It is proved by the number of drug dealers and users who are caught by the police troops every day. The dealers are usually still young and unemployed, but some of them are well educated people even some famous actors and actresses. Well known businessmen are also involved in this business too. The latest news said that dealers are trying to penetrate their business market to the young users such as the students of High School like us. In big cities such as Jakarta and other major cities in Indonesia, they offer it to the students of Junior High School even some cases are found in Elementary School students. The following are some steps to avoid drugs.

Firstly; don’t mingle with drug users. Drug users are active people who always try to find new fellow users. They make their own community where they can develop strong relationship among themselves. They always try to offer free sample to a person who never use it before. Don’t ever come to close to them. Once their offer is rejected, he will never stop offering you to use it. It is very tempting because it is free and as we know, it is expensive too. But once we try it, we will never leave it. We will get addicted and involved in the business. So I remind you “Don’t get closed to them”

Secondly; don’t get your mind unoccupied. Be active in religious ceremony or organization where you can learn more things to develop your mental, good thought and maturity. The more active you are, the better you will feel. People who are active in religion are usually strong in their faith. So they will have good thinking and try to develop themselves in different fields such as leadership, organization and other positive activities.

Third; think positively. Whenever you are sad or upset with your parents, be sure there is something you can do to express your disappointment. Be positive thinking means we do something positively because we do this for our goodness. As young people, there is time that they will try to find out who they really are. It is sometimes against their parents’ will, so they sometimes have an argument with their parents. Problems come up, and young people have to face them. For those who have positive thinking will find them as the process of maturity but others probably see them as a reason to use drugs. So “Think Positively”

Ladies and gentlemen that’s all for now I hope that what I have presented can give you some descriptions on how to avoid yourselves in getting involved in using drugs. Thank you very much for your attentions.
