A Finance Ministry official said the data indicated that Japan has become "a major market" in the world of illegal drugs

Japan has been a major market for illegal drugs for a long time, just like it’s a major market for human trafficking. The difference is we are seeing the police focusing on it more now.

For us reasonable, rational adults that know the only way to deal with the drug issue is legalization, this is good news because it means people are taking notice.
