Young men report for the military draft at a hall in the CentralPlaza Udonthani shopping centre on Friday. A total of 495 men aged 21 from six tambons reported for the annual draft, held in a hall at the CentralPlaza Udonthani shopping centre on Friday. The process included physical examinations and urine tests for drugs, and 97 men or 20% tested positive. Those who tested positive, regardless of whether they ended up being drafted or not, would be sent for drug rehabilitation later, he said. "From now on, officials must watch out in targeted villages and drug abusers must be brought to rehabilitation soon," Mr Wacharin said.
