With a view to severely punishing criminal activities as smuggling，trafficking, transporting and manufacturing narcotic drugs and illegal cultivation of their mother plants，the Decision on Prohibition against narcotic drugs was adopted by the standing committee of the seventh NPC．

The prevention of drug crime, the most sophisticated transnational crime, is far beyond the efforts of any single country or a single province within a state，so China has strengthen its international cooperation with several neighboring countries or regions in the field of anti-drug struggle recently．As a result，some single cases were uncovered collaboratively．Meanwhile， provinces have strengthened their inter-province cooperation，and have gained excellent effects．In l989，for instance，under the direct leadership of Ministry of Public Security．four provincial police bureaus successfully cracked a big time drug trafficking group jointly，as many as 70 traffickers including one big-time smuggler from Burma were arrested．

Many “fine tunings” are urgently needed in some parts of the “Comprehensive Administration of Public Security ”Policy，for example，it is necessary to：
