Seputarkarawang.com - Karawang, The Regent of Karawang, Aep Syaepuloh, firmly stated that the illicit trafficking of narcotics is a real threat that must be eradicated at its roots. He emphasized that synergy between local governments, law enforcement officials and elements of society is the main key in breaking the chain of circulation of illicit goods. According to him, this effort is not just a regional obligation, but rather a manifestation of the President of the Republic of Indonesia's instructions to protect the nation's future from destruction caused by addictive substances, Thursday (14/5/2026).Aep emphasized that the Karawang Regency Government is fully committed to supporting the tactical steps of the police and BNN, both in preventive action and massive legal enforcement. Full support for the Karawang Police continues to be provided as a concrete form of government concern for the quality of life of residents. He reminded that drugs are a common enemy that has the potential to systematically damage human resource potential in the Karawang area. The Regent also expressed deep concern regarding the trend of targeting traffickers which is now starting to spread to school age groups. The fact that drugs are starting to affect middle and high school students to young people of productive age is a danger signal that must be watched out for. This phenomenon, according to Aep, requires double vigilance from parents and educators to ensure that the environment for children's growth and development remains clean from the negative influence of narcotics.
On this occasion, Regent Aep also gave his highest appreciation to the ranks of the Karawang Police for their success in uncovering a large number of methamphetamine cases. The success of confiscating more than one kilogram of methamphetamine in a short time is considered a brilliant achievement that saved thousands of lives. It is hoped that this aggressive step by the police will have a deterrent effect and create fear for dealers and couriers who try to operate in Karawang.Furthermore, he instructed law enforcement officers to never relax their supervision and continue to put pressure on points prone to trafficking. "Don't give any slack," he stressed, while asking all legal instruments to continue to intensify drug clean-up operations without discrimination. This firmness is considered important so that Karawang Regency has a reputation as an area that is not friendly to perpetrators of narcotics crimes.In closing, Aep Syaepuloh invited all levels of society not to remain silent and actively report any suspicious activity in their environment. The collective awareness of citizens to provide accurate information to the authorities is an important asset in winning this war. With the active involvement of all parties, the dream of realizing a Karawang Regency that is clean from drugs (Bersinar) in the future is no longer just a dream.
