The Dilemma of National Security Threats in Efforts to Realize the Banning of Kratom Plants by the National Anti-Narcotics Agency in Kapuas Hulu Regency

In this research, we will analyze various possible threat impacts from the non-optimal implementation of the 5-year transition program on the planned realization of the kratom plant ban policy in 2024 by The National Anti-Narcotics Agency (BNN) and related institutions in kratom plant cultivation areas, especially in the Kapuas Hulu Regency of West Kalimantan, which in fact is also the border area of the country. The obstruction of the implementation of the transition program in the realization plan for the kratom plant ban program in 2024 shows that the Indonesian government and related institutions are not serious in their efforts to protect kratom farmers and various other elements, which will then cause various polemics such as social problems, economic problems, environmental problems and transnational crimes, which are likely to lead to Indonesia's national security problems.
