Jakarta to renovate 34 soccer fields

The Jakarta administration has targeted the renovation of 34 soccer fields. Jakarta Deputy Governor Djarot Saiful Hidayat has planned to renovate the fields spread in 34 districts in the city to facilitate youth activities to help them avoid the lure of drug abuse.

The number of drug users in the city is high. According to recent data from the National Narcotics Agency (BNN) taken from 23 senior high schools and vocational schools, half of the 880 students surveyed had consumed drugs.

"Our youth are highly threatened by drugs," Djarot said Wednesday as quoted by tempo.co.

He hoped that after the renovations were done, the 34 fields could become youth activity centers that protected youths from getting involved in negative activities like using drugs. (Vny)
