A top Malaysian anti-drug official has urged for glamorous-sounding and hip names of party drugs to be dropped and replaced with names highlighting the effects of the drugs, a news report said yesterday.

Suggested new names for the drugs would be “agony” and “bamboozle”, said Ariffin. “Likewise, all opiate drugs should be called organised killers, cannabis as mind destroyers and ketamine as community-paralysing agents,” Ariffin was quoted as saying by the Star daily.
