NO LAND FOR FAMILIES WITH DRUG ADDICTS

The Xintang township government in Zengcheng, a suburban city of
Guangzhou, has issued a notice banning the distribution of land to
families whose members are under investigation for drug abuse.

It is the first township in the southern province to issue such a
ban. It is also requiring all local families to sign a contract or
promise to avoid drugs, in the next few months.
