Before 2002, the annual amount of seized narcotics remained steady at around 2000 kilograms per year. But in 2002 that figure suddenly quadrupled, reaching over 8000 kilos. This was just about the same point in time as the steep increase in drug-associated AIDS.
2002 年以前，國內每年的毒品查獲量穩定的維持在 2000 公斤左右，然而到了 2003 年，毒品查獲量卻一下子成長了 4 倍，達到八千多公斤，幾乎與毒癮愛滋病患陡升的時間點相同。
