English to English translations [PRO] Government / Politics | | English term or phrase: greatest value is acquired by crossing borders | Hello everyone,
This issue arises because the project failed to appreciate the changing nature of police methodology in relation to illicit commodity trafficking. In standard police reactive methodology, police are either called to a crime scene or use their knowledge of local crime to place patrols, static guards or conduct routine checks on people and vehicle. Drug trafficking is of course a total clandestine activity. The greatest value is acquired by crossing borders and consequently traffickers will plan routes, concealment methods and times meticulously so as to be unobserved by police and public alike.
Does "greatest value is acquired by crossing borders" mean "greatest quantities of drugs is transported by crossing borders"?
Thank you. |
