It is known as 'crazy medicine'. Now 'YABA' a new drug more popular than heroin in parts of the Far East, is heading for Bangladesh. The drug, which creates an intense hallucinogenic effect and can enable users to stay awake for days on end, was originally created by German chemists instructed by Adolph Hitler to find a stimulant that would help his soldiers to fight around the clock. Drug experts are warning that Bangladesh is being targeted by YABA producers operating out of the so-called Golden Triangle - the drug producing areas which straddle the borders of Thailand, Burma and Laos. Few days ago, more than 1, 30,000 of YABA tablets were intercepted at banani area with lots of other material which surely enough to demoralize youths mind. There have been other several seizures in other area of Dhaka city, and there is evidence that illegal laboratories in banani are attempting to make it. There are already 17 behind bars, 20 on the run, estimated 5000 victims because of deadly YABA. Its an intelligent, persuasive terrorism. Youth are committing inhuman activities. 'We are watching this with extreme concern as todays youngs are maker of the future. Youths must know that regular use of the drug has been linked to lung and kidney disorders, hallucinations and paranoia. A frequent hallucination is 'speed bugs' or 'crank bugs'. The user believes bugs live under his or her skin and becomes desperate to get them out. Those coming off the drug are also susceptible to severe depression and suicidal urges. Demand for the drug in Bangladesh is being fuelled by the elite class society who would do anything to be entertained even its mean death and moral disorder, who talked about the intense high it induces. The so-called Nazi method of making YABA was first noticed in Thailand more than 30 years ago. At the time it was legal, possession and supply of YABA was criminalized in 1970, but the market simply went underground. By the mid-Nineties - with students and other young people turning to the drug - seizures of YABA overtook those of other drugs. According to the Public Health Ministry, the number of students entering rehab in Bangladesh to deal with YABA addiction has risen destructively in the past three years among the major cities. After been motivated by the above issue, that we must eradicate yaba from its roots, this is our small attempt to raise awareness among the youths, especially college and university goers who are pretty much vulnerable to get addicted with this deadly YABA. By doing a one month duration Anti-Yaba advertisement campaign through broadcasting and publishing on newspaper and by other available media
tools we will try to reach young peoples mind and making them more conscious about their decision.
Advantages: Creativity and impact: The product or service is itself a creative promotion, thus television will be the best tool to present the campaign message. Coverage and cost effectiveness: Television advertising is the only possible tool for the high reach of large audience. Thus the cost per exposure is less and will make it more cost effective. Our main target is to reach the higher and the upper class people and the best tool to reach them is television. Captivity and attention : Based on the new set of business, the primary goal is to make the audience aware of the new threat. Thus, to advertise before or between the favorite programs will create the attention. Selectivity and attention : Advantage of television is the flexibility to reach the audience. Thus we could place our ad at any time as possible to reach the consumer. Disadvantage: Fleeting message: TV commercial last for only 60 seconds or less and leave nothing tangible for the viewer to examine or consider. So it might not have the greater impact on to the consumers mind. Limited viewers attention : sometime viewers block the network of the advertisement. For these spot of the ad-campaign will be wasted. Newspaper & Supplements: We have planned for one month period. For this we will give 175 insertions through newspapers and supplements. Advantages : o It can reach greater amount of audience. o Also got responsive timing people can read through the information. o Can attract audience interest. o Moreover it has the geographic selectivity. Disadvantages: o The main disadvantage it has got is short life span. People hardly spend a large chunk of time on newspaper. o Clutter problems: variety of information at the same time. o It has got limited targeting capabilities and Reproduction constraints. Once the information is being published cannot be changed if problem persists.
Radio Commercial : Radio listening is increasing and reaching towards a large number of audience nowadays, therefore without any doubt radio commercial will be an effective communication method to attract our targeted audience. As music is the main source to attract listener on the radio, we are looking forward to sponsor a 30/20 minutes music based program to reach vast amount of audience. Nonetheless we selected radio stations like Radio Today and Radio Foorti, VOA and Bangladesh betar to convey our message to the youths, which have become very popular among them. Advantages: o It can reach greater amount of audience. o Selective timings, when young listener listens to radio most. o Cost effective. o High frequency.

excites their interest. The creative execution style is the way a particular appeal is tuned into an advertising message presented to the consumer.

Coverage : We know that our target audiences are the youngsters but if we campaign anti-yaba advertisement through electronic media or newspaper it will bring coverage all over the country and all kinds of people get the awareness message through the media vehicle. Frequency : We will be having adequate frequency of TV ads and radio ads to bring coverage properly to our target audience. Developing the media plan: The promotional planning model is the process of identifying target markets, here the target market are the youngsters and youth who are college and university student. Establishing objectives and formulating strategies for attaining them. The development of the media plan and strategies follows a similar path. The processes of developing the media plan are below. Analyze the market: In the development of media strategy, a market analysis is performed although this times the focus on the media and delivering the message. Here we have to create the message more colorful and attract the young people. Establish media objectives : The situation analysis leads to establishment of marketing and communications objectives; here we have to establish the media objective which we use for campaign against YABA. The media situation analysis should lead to determination of specific media objectives. If we specify the media objective, it will be easier to reach our goal. Using broadcast media to provide coverage of at least 75% of the target audience within one month duration, if the campaign is successful we may consider to extent out time limit of campaign. Reach 60% of target audience at least 3 times over the same one month period. Develop media strategy: We can develop media strategy through revolutionary concept of campaign as like Media mix as we are doing a campaign based advertising which dont have consumer product characteristics rather then its a concept against another concept, more specifically an idea-based product. The size of the budget is economically feasible as we are being very selective to consider that - to get full coverage we dont have to advertise on every single media tools rather then choosing specific media partners which have a trustful impact on peoples mind. Target market coverage partial market coverage. 11
Geographic coverage youths in urban area and also there parents. Scheduling-continuity for one month duration at different spot category of media tools. Reach versus frequency achieving awareness requires reach; therefore we tried to use all the necessary media tools and available factual terminologies which are essential for us. We also set up an excellent timing for our one month ad-campaign through different spot, programs, news reach the desired frequency level. Creative aspects and mood we implied the entire necessary medium to support our great intention for the greater good of youngsters. Also we enhanced our creativity issue that will carry over to the communication effectively. Flexibility because of the rapidly changing marketing environment we maintain a certain and potential degree of flexibility. Budget considerations our overall budget is economically feasible and strong to achieve its goals within the applied strategy and media planning. We also have to go through books, articles and literatures that will tell us about the disadvantages of YABA which we will try to implement in our advertising campaigns
Well to give answers of these above two questions, we have to consider what is our core objective is and again reconsider our target audience to whom we will deliver our message. To see how constructive our media plan or objective is we took a survey among the well-renown universities like NSU, IUB, EWU, and AIUB and questioned few students about the YABA issue and also about their lifestyle and how they see todays worlds in their eyes. To find out there psychological way of thinking about this YABA and personally what they want to see or do against YABA, We prepared our Questionnaire in such a way that, we can get the whole scenario of the person by asking some basic relevant questions and which might help us to be more factual and

effective on our small attempt. Also it will let us know how efficient we are to address this issue towards the youngsters. We also explained our intentions to raise awareness through a rational advertising campaign and asked them about our attempt and how well it will go to meet this radical. Nonetheless, we also pre-planned this campaign as our first strike to evacuate YABA, if it succeed then we will proceed further by taking another four month duration campaign to destroy this deadly poison completely and be socially well-recognized and gain youths trust to convey further message to them. Conveying our message through the IMC tools and use it in a full response by using different media approach we can meet our marketing and communication objective. But still there are obligations; sometimes even the most accurate media plan might go wrong. If the strategies were successful, they should be used in future plans. If not there flaws should be analyze.
Conclusion:
The Proposal established here is to set up an Anti-YABA Campaign focusing on the middle to upper class people. Our prime target are the youth of Dhaka city specially the sophisticated areas like Dhanmondi, Gulshan, D.O.H.S, Banani, Bashundhara, Nikunjo and Baridhara.
