5 places to find Christ-centred help for recovering addicts in the Klang Valley

Did you know that every day, 70 people turn to drugs as a form of escape1? In 2020, almost 20,000 Malaysian men were convicted of at least one drug offence2. The laws of Malaysia are extremely strict with offenders, and drug trafficking carries the death penalty.

Any addiction is hard to overcome and requires a strong support system. Sadly, the stigma associated with drug use and addiction is often too difficult for many to cope with. Earlier this year, the National Anti-Drug Agency reiterated that every Malaysian citizen wanting to get proper treatment can visit any of their rehabilitation centres3, a step forward in destigmatising the problem and focussing on the dignity of every individual.

In Christ, there is hope.

Complementing the authorities’ efforts are civil society organisations, including ones spearheaded by Christian organisations such as churches or faith-based NGOs. If you or anyone you know is struggling with addiction, there is help. If you’re looking for a Christ-centred environment, check out these rehabilitation centres in the Klang Valley.
