I bet the people of Japan can smoke a pack a day of cigarettes a lot easier now that these criminals have been arrested and their product confiscated.

"I wonder if there were any no laws for this in the past."

It's quite possible that the Shogunate never considered Pot to be as dangerous as the highly addictive Ahen (opium) that was illegal and being smuggled in from China. If so, the old governments would have been ahead of today's governments in recognizing the massive difference between marijuana and the more dangerous/addictive substances.

That's a good one, guy - "I thought it was green tea." LOL. Y'know, when I picture someone kicking back & smoking a spliff, I don't picture them to be Japanese, somehow. Just goes to show ... you never know.

..and to top it off he's an executive. I guess they don't pay enough in Japan.

Well, at least not enough to be 40 and dating a 22 year old. That takes a lotta money.

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! My, oh my, inflation has taken its toll since the 70s! The best Columbian gold was only $35 for 32 grams...

What would happen to this young woman of Chinese extraction if she were arrested and found guilty of drug dealin' in her own homeland?

Suspended sentence maybe?

Fukui said he was keeping the bags at the request of an acquaintance who told him that they contained a type of tea that could not be sold in Japan.

It's not mine, Dad! I was just holding it for a friend because he's having trouble at home!
