Aims To provide an overall picture of drug abuse in Vietnam, its prevalence, correlates and patterns. Methods Studies addressing the drug abuse problem in Vietnam are reviewed. Attention is paid to studies conducted from 1993 onwards. The reviewed studies were collected from both refereed and non-refereed sources. Results Drug abuse is rising sharply in Vietnam: almost threefold over the past 10 years. From a predominantly rural-mountainous phenomenon, illicit drug abuse spread rapidly to urban areas. Meanwhile, the average age of drug users has declined and more women have been engaging in drug consumption. At the same time, heroin has replaced opium as the most preferred drug in the country's illicit drug market, especially among young users in urban areas. At the national level, the second main route of drug administration, injecting, has exceeded smoking and taken precedence in the country's drug abuse culture, especially among heroin users. Conclusion Drug abuse in Vietnam has changed radically over the past decade, which has implications for the national and international community and requires further research to fill the knowledge gap and to inform intervention policy for better drug control policy.

The issue of drugs and substance abuse by the youth is on the increase, and it has called for social concern. Despite the fact and growing appreciation of the need for drugs and substance abuse control, it would appear there is a lack of enough empirical research in Nigeria which explicitly links drugs and substance abuse to youth development. This study, therefore, examines the relationship between drugs, substance abuse and effects on youth development in Nigeria with specific reference to Lagos state. The study adopted the cross-sectional survey design and data is generated through a self-administered questionnaire. Data for the analysis was generated from a total of 344 participants selected from official, detainees and prisoners from eight directorates in the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA), and the Nigerian Prisons Service (NPS)in Lagos State. The analysis centred on investigating the impact of the drug, substance abuse on the four identified measures of youth development, namely: crime, academic performance, impaired memory, mental health problems and contracting infectious disease (HIV and STDs). The univariate analysis revealed that on average, almost all the respondents affirmed the significant manifestations of the variables within the data generated. For the bivariate hypotheses, Spearman's rank-order correlation was utilized in testing the extent of correlations between drug, substance abuse and effects on youth development. The results revealed that there is a relationship between drug, substance abuse, and crime at a 0.05 level of significance, it also revealed that there is a relationship between drug substance abuse and academic performance at a 0.05 level of significance, the third hypotheses of the study revealed that there is a relationship between drug, substance abuse, and impaired memory and mental health problem at a 0.05 level of significance, it also revealed that there is a relationship between drug, substance abuse and contracting infectious diseases at a0.05 level of significance. As such, all four (4) null hypotheses of no significant relationships were rejected. In conclusion, this study asserts that drug, substance abuse, is significantly associated and enhances manifestations of youth development and as such enhances outcomes such as crime, academic performance, impaired memory, mental health problems, and contracting infectious diseases. It, therefore, recommends that, for an improved standard of living, and improved facility for a reintegration of drug abusers, tight border control, strengthening of drug agencies and strong policies against drugs and substance abuse and finally awareness creation, sensitization on drug use and viable youth development programs
