A controversy over marijuana use in Palau

Radio Australia

Tuesday 10 Jul 2012

The United Nation's World Drugs Report has named Palau as the country with the highest consumption of Marijuana in the world.



According to the report a quarter of adults in Palau use cannabis, ten per cent higher than the second country on the list, Italy.

The results have been controversial however, because while representing adult usage, those surveyed were students in Palau's only public high school.

The survey showed sixty per cent of the student respondents have used the drug and forty per cent say they used it in the last month.

Emery Wenty, Director of Education for the Bureau of Education in Palau, spoke to Matt Dawson, saying he believes the UN has overestimated the issue in Palau.
