   It means that 90% of drugs get through - that is, those drugs   
   that are imported. The ones that are home grown (weed, salvia,   
   mushrooms, synthetics) of course never face the hurdle of   
   having to pass borders.

   Who would smuggle drugs INTO the Far East?   
      
   They have enough opium, weed and anything else to last   
   them a lifetime.   
      
   Prohibition is an abject failure, fighting drugs is like fighting   
   the plant world.
