Medan buying weed

In a second video that made the rounds on Indonesian social media last week, a man in a green jacket is seen making a police report. His complaint? That he had been scammed and sent a pack of celery instead of the weed he ordered. In the video, the police officers can be seen laughing while hearing the report and asking the man to open the paper packet he was holding. True enough, it did contain some celery and what looks like your run-of-the-mill grass not for smoking. The incident took place on March According to police commissioner Mario Invanry, head of the narcotics unit of the Palembang Police, the report was filed at the Palembang police station in South Sumatra. After the laughs, one of the officers told him that weed is classified as a drug , and that he could be prosecuted for possessing it. However, an incident from earlier this year still holds up as one of the most epic drug frauds in the country. Several intelligence officers were tasked by regional police to investigate allegations of drug trafficking in Medan, a city in North Sumatra. They found two men claiming to be selling methamphetamine , but further examination revealed that the three kilogram packets they were in possession of actually contained table salt. They were later arrested anyway. By Manisha Krishnan. By Sanjana Ramachandran. By Arman Khan. Share: X Facebook Share Copied to clipboard. Videos by VICE.

Indonesian mothers fight for medical marijuana for their children

Medan buying weed

Indonesian weed has long been known on a global scale, despite efforts here to crack down on the sale and cultivation of marijuana, which is considered a drug on-par with meth and heroin in the eyes of the law. I set out to see what I could learn about this hidden industry and met two men, both of them former weed farmers, who offered to explain what made marijuana such an attractive livelihood, and also why they left it for good. Samsuar, a year-old former weed farmer who asked me not to use his real name, said that when he got into the weed game, he was just one of many young Acehnese attracted to what they saw as a risky, but still lucrative business. Samsuar was dressed in a faded red t-shirt and muddy jeans when he met me at a cafe in Banda Aceh. He purposely sat at a table far from the other customers to chat. It all started about 20 years ago, Samsuar explained, when he was convinced to start farming weed by a neighbor. It would take around four hours. After six months of work, he was ready to harvest. He was put in touch with a buyer through a friend. For every half-hectare, Samsuar was able to produce one ton of weed. Now, Rp 15 million is a lot of money in rural Indonesia today, but back then, it was a small fortune. When everyone went on vacation to Medan, I tagged along too. Once he burned through all his money partying and gambling in Medan, Samsuar would go home to replant. This cycle repeated for years. Suharto fell from power. On May 3, more than 1, civilians were killed in a massacre. Aceh was officially a war zone again. Samsuar and his friends had to hand over their weed fields to the Free Aceh Movement GAM militants, who used them as bases and training camps. The TNI converged on the region and it was no longer safe to grow marijuana. Many fled. Others decided to fight. Samsuar fled to nearby North Sumatra province. Because he never thought to save the money he made off his weed harvests, he had to start over. Peace came to Aceh in after the province was devastated by a tsunami that left more than , dead. He settled down, had four children, and decided he no longer wanted to be a marijuana farmer. He believed the illicit source of his money was the reason he had so many years of bad luck. No one knows exactly when marijuana was first introduced in Aceh, but the legend goes that cannabis was brought by the Dutch East Indies from India as a gift to the Sultanate of Aceh back in the 19th century. Back then, marijuana was used to keep caterpillars off from coffee plants, which were then very expensive. People used weed to season their food, as a preservative, and for its medical properties. Prices soared in after Indonesia signed the United Nations Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs more than a decade after it was introduced. But it never actually left Aceh. Is the program successful? The year-old, who also asked that I not use his real name, stopped planting marijuana three years ago. He says he was just tired of being cheated by his business partner. The residents life depended entirely on the farm. For both Alamsyah and Samsuar, the weed days are far behind them. They can see the plant growing out there in the wilderness, but no one knows exactly who owns it all. They could even be our own neighbors.
