This excellent question is posed on IOL...
According to the Medical Research Council, Cape Town is the tik (methamphetamine) capital of South Africa, with 98 percent of methamphetamine patients seen in all the provinces coming from Cape Town. (The answer is that Tik addicts come from Cape Town!!)
Methamphetamine, also known as speed, ice, crank, crystal straws and tjoef, is highly addictive and especially popular with children. The highest user levels are among those under 19.
Professor Solomon Rataemane plans to use the four-day conference to launch the South African Society for Addicted Medicine. He said the society would provide training to medical practitioners and social workers to help control substance abuse.
