Why didn't the national drug control measures directly bomb the Golden Triangle?

There are several reasons ~ ~ The Golden Triangle refers to the border areas of southern Yunnan, northern Laos and northeastern Myanmar. These areas are mountainous areas with dense forests, which are suitable for these armed drug dealers to hide. Because it is the border area of several countries, it is not suitable for using force, which will lead to diplomatic friction and distrust between countries. Moreover, most people who grow drugs there are civilians who have lived there for thousands of years. The mountain area is too poor, and all you can earn is these things.

There are also countries such as Laos and Myanmar, which are already very poor, and it is difficult for the government to manage there, and the politicians will not easily provoke armed forces in these places, leading to the division of the country. Many senior officials in the current governments of Myanmar and Laos are former leaders of armed drug dealers, but they are all good now.

Our country's policy in this regard is to strengthen the management of border areas and severely crack down on drug dealers using complex terrain to transport drugs into the territory. The other is to use funds to help civilians who grow drugs and teach them to grow cash crops. Most people won't grow drugs after they earn money. Now this method is very effective. Now the biggest drug producing area is not the Golden Triangle, but Afghanistan and Colombia in South America!
