‘Hong Kong police seize HK$14 million worth of cannabis during raid on indoor marijuana farm in village’ | SCMP

LETTER TO THE EDITOR:
The world is moving quickly to decriminalise cannabis for medical and recreational use. Except… Hong Kong! Where we waste valuable police resources arresting small-time growers on Lantau. ('Cannabis worth HK$14m seized in Lantau raid' 26 March).
Surely the police have better things to do.  Like chasing down quarantine cheaters, maybe?
What a sick joke. It would be funny if it weren't a criminal mis-use of resources. 
To our government: get with the times!
