Elizabeth Kite is head of the NGO, Tonga Youth Leaders, and Pacific representative on the Commonwealth Youth Council.
Ms Kite acknowledges use of the illegal drug is a problem among youth and says it is one community leaders are taking seriously.
Her comments follow an appeal by a women and children's advocate for the country's leaders to meet and discuss the growing problem.
She said her organisation has gone out into the villages and met with drug dealers, consumers and other youth to discuss the matter.
