The number of drug-related cases in China declined from
140,000 in 2017 to 54,000 in 2021, down an annual average of over 20 percent
for five consecutive years.
At the end of 2021, China had approximately 1.48 million drug users, down 42.1
percent from the end of 2016, according to a press conference by the Ministry
of Public Security (MPS) on Thursday, in the run-up to International Day
Against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking on June 26.
Besides, southwest China's Yunnan Province, a major front in China's battle
against drug crimes as it borders the Golden Triangle known for its rampant
drug production and trafficking, also saw fewer drugs seized.
