Reflection on drugs and guns

Based from what I had read, this article tells about the South Africa’s President Thabo Mbeki that he enjoys a position of some eminence, whereas each year spending a noble amount of time on diplomatic visits abroad. Not only that at home he and his government have to contend with two controversies that just won’t go away which are arms and AIDS.
Now Mbeki had faced two difficulties as a president because he had to choose whether to take the weapon or the drugs. For me even war is not always happened in the country, but it is for the own good sake. If the Mbeki choose to put drugs as a legal in his country, I think the impact will become worse rather than impact of war.
As a president, Mbeki has to think more than twice rather to put priority on drugs or guns because for his people drugs are more important than guns. But if Mbeki think further he will choose guns for his country’s future.
