Drugs--the borderlands gift for every occasion [DPRK]

Reports are stating that drug abuse by ordinary citizens living in areas near the Sino-North Korean border, where drugs are easier to purchase, has reached a serious level. Not only are everyday families are consuming or acquiring drugs to re-sell for money, but drugs can also be found as part of the hospitality offerings in privately rented rooms and as part of the formal greeting process between individuals.

On October 8th, a source from Musan County, North Hamgyong Province spoke with Daily NK reporter on the phone, saying, “Illegal drug transactions and use among people in the border regions is spreading so quickly that it is virtually uncontrollable.

A source in South Hamgyong Province corroborated this news.

Added the source, "‘Ice’ (crystal methamphetamine, or “crystal meth”) that is being produced secretly in Hamhung, South Hamgyong Province and Sunchon, South Pyongan Province, for the purpose of smuggling to China, is being supplied to many families who are transporting it across the border."

Even just in Musan County, North Hamgyong Province, it is becoming the norm for people who rent out private rooms to offer drugs to the strangers who come seeking hospitality. “People here will ask the guests who stay with them during business trips (all of them are here on regional trade business), ‘Would you like to try a bump?’ and offer some up," he said.

Because of this, businessmen who visit the area frequently have developed a taste for the the illicit stimulant. As soon as they land in Musan, they will head directly for the place they stayed before that offered them the substance.

"It's a good way to get regular customers," the source noted.

By taking the drug, customers form closer relationships with the landlords who provide it to them, and it becomes easy to go overboard with consumption. It is not uncommon for customers to open their pockets and share drugs with the families of the landlords as a kind of compensation.

In the border regions, a gram of ice fetches 100 yuan, the equivalent of 130,000 North Korean won. That’s an increase of 20,000 KPW compared to just three months ago. In Pyongyang, Hamhung, Chongjin, and other big cities, it is becoming the trend to give ice to close friends as a gift instead of souvenirs. Young people will give a gram as a birthday or wedding gift. Ice is even given to old people on their 60th birthdays, according to the source.

Customs officials affiliated with the State Security Department in North Hamgyong Province, including the head of the customs department, will disperse following morning meetings and head out to well known drug houses in the area. Traders hoping to go through customs formalities might waste 3-4 hours trying to track down a customs official.

, according to our source, young women will use ‘medicinal water’, that is, water through which drugs have been filtered, on their skin daily in order to get rid of acne. Employing the euphemism 'medicinal water'  to refer to the illegal substance helps it to sidestep drug crackdowns.

Theres nothing  in N Korea to live for anymore except for methamphetamine it seems. It's sad, they can't eat real food so they get fed meth to forget that..

Why isn't the sky falling and where's the zombie apocalypse?  I thought that was the result of a society where meth use is tolerated.
