I’m old enough to remember when they announced the same ban in 2000. It was a complete farce and the illegal trade carried on for years. This time they seem to have actually eradicated much of the crops. I hope it holds in the face of corruption and easy money.

Who is the number 2 supplier. Does this mean world wide Heroin supply is down drastically?
