Found 1,4 Tonnes of Cocaine on Yacht

          Australia law enforcement agencies seized illegal goods which it worth AUS$312 million, cocaine, on Australia bound-yacht, Sydney. They found it during a covert midnight operation last week, on Monday. The street value of cocaine in Australia is more expensive than in the United States, making the South Pacific island nation an attractive market for drug peddlers. Justice Minister Michael Keenan and Immigration Minister Peter Dutton said that six men, including five Australians, have been charged with the conspiracy to import drugs and could face life imprisonment. This is the largest cocaine haul ever in a single operation in Australia. The previous record was 938 kilograms in Western Australia state in 2001.

  1. do they (the movie makers) really use drugs when they are making a movie? if not, what do they use as a replacement?

    1. Good question Vena, because I don't know what the answer is. In my opinion, I don't think they will use real drugs because the purpose of the films is to let the viewers know about how dangerous narcotics are and make them stop using those illegal things.
