One source

The Department of Mental Health has relaunched the TO BE NUMBER ONE anti-drug initiative, featuring celebrity involvement to engage Thai youth.

The Thai Department of Mental Health, under the Ministry of Public Health, has officially resumed its 'TO BE NUMBER ONE' campaign. According to a report by Thai Post on August 2, 2026, the initiative is designed to prevent and address drug-related issues among the younger generation. The project operates under the patronage of Princess Ubolratana Rajakanya Sirivadhana Barnavadi.

As part of the campaign's strategy to reach a wider audience, the organizers have mobilized a group of popular artists and performers to participate in outreach activities. By leveraging the influence of these public figures, the program aims to encourage youth participation in anti-drug efforts and promote healthier lifestyle choices.

For residents and visitors, this campaign highlights the ongoing public health focus on drug prevention within Thailand. While the initiative is primarily targeted at local youth, it reflects the government's broader commitment to social welfare and public safety. At this stage, specific details regarding the full schedule of events or the locations of upcoming outreach activities have not been fully disclosed. Those interested in the campaign's progress or potential community impacts should monitor official announcements from the Ministry of Public Health for further updates.
