Dutch soft drugs policy |
|
In Japan students of well known universities are arrested because they were growing cannabis plants. While in the Netherlands a cannabis summit is organised and suddenly many coffee shops are threatened with closure, NHK EU correspondent Go Kamosiha comes to Amsterdam to investigate the Dutch soft drugs policy in practice. He meets an official that explains the policy, an opponent MP, a Dutch seed producer and exporter, the manager of a cannabis information center and the assistant manager of a school in the center of Amsterdam. Last but not least he meets and interviews the chairman of the union of Dutch coffee shop owners in his own Amsterdam coffee shop.
Activities: research, set-up and planning, hire car, accompany filming and driving.
