Interview With Drug Abuse Prevention Center


Interview with Drug Abuse Prevention Center – On Nov. 8, 2008, Japan’s TV Show ‘the Newscaster’ broadcasted a special on the growth in cannabis related offenses.

However, modern international studies have shown that injesting cannabis causes relaxation, not violence. In order to confirm the source of their claim that cannabis causes violent tendencies, we called the Tokyo Broadcasting Systems who aired the show. They directed us to the ‘Drug Abuse Prevention Center’. Mr. Masao Tomisawa answered our call. Interview Date: Nov.11, 2008

Recently, the government started implementing random drug tests in schools as a response to the problem. Human rights advocates are wary, however, as this procedure may infringe on the rights of the students. Are drug tests the solution or is this just a knee-jerk reaction to the problem of drug use in schools?
