Pidato Bahasa Inggris - Narkoba

Assalamualaikum Wr. Wb

Honorable ones the juries, the participant of English speech contest, and all audiences.

Before I begin to give a speech, I would like to invite you to thank to Allah the Almighty, Who has given us
Mercy and Blessing, so we can meet together in this place. And let’s deliver sholawat and salam to our
prophet Muhammad SAW, Who has brought us from the darkness to the brightness, so we are always in
the right path.

Ladies and gentlemen

Drug? What is that? I am sure you all already know, and may be better than me about what drug is and what
the advantages and disadvantages are. Drugs actually are medicine for anesthetize patients in surgery. But
that perception was misapplied by some people.

Drugs have been misapplied by some people for a long time. Some people which use drugs beyond the
medical treatment consider that drugs can make them feel better when they facing some problems , make
them feel easy to find new brilliant ideas or just for a pleasure.

I am sure you will never forget the accident in Tugu Tani, Jakarta, when a drugs user, Apriliani, drove her
car with high speed and hit the pedestrians in a Tugu Tani bus stop. The recent tragedy in Pondok Indah
where a man with the influence of drugs drove his car and hit many people on the road is another example.
It obviously proofs that in the effect of drugs, hallucination of the drugs user is bigger than other normal
people. They cannot distinguish between the real world and the hallucination world and consider all things
in around them are like a dream and not real.

The effect of drugs are not only dangerous for drugs user themselves but also people surrounding. For the
users, drugs are so risky because they may lead to overdoses, HIV/AIDS and brain or mental damage. Drugs
are also dangerous for the people surrounding as it has already mentioned above. The dangers of
consuming drugs open our eyes that the usage of drugs beyond the medical treatments is profitless.
Because drugs just lead us in the destruction for the users themselves and for other people surrounding.

Dear ladies and gentlemen

But it is so sad, if we hear many of our young generations consume the drugs such as Heroin, cokain, Koplo,
dextron, extacy, or marijuana . They merely consume drugs to get drunk, enjoyment, and temporal
satisfaction without consider the risks.

As moslems we have the guidance from the holy qur’an that drinking alcoholic drink is forbiden, and it is
bad action, and despicable deed, as Allah Said in the holy qur'an : "ya ayyuhalladzina amanu innamal
khomru walmaysir wal anshob wal azlam rijsummin amalisyton fajtanibuhu laalakum tuflihun." It means :
"oh ye the believers actually alcoholic drink, gambling, and draw destiny is despicable from the evil’s action
so avoid them, may be you will be the pleasure people.(almaidah verse : 90)"

Because the drugs or the alcoholic drink is so dangerous for our health, for our body, for our future. So we
must keep a way from it. we must avoid it. Don’t try to consume it, don’t try to sell or buy it. Those are what
I can deliver to you at this moment, thank a lot for your attention and I ask forgiveness for my mistakes,
and the last I say:

WasalamualaikumWr. Wb.
