This article discusses some widely held misconceptions about the involvement of Chinese criminals in international heroin trafficking. The evidence considered in the article undermines those claims that large, interlinked syndicates control heroin distribution from the source to the street and also that the triads are heavily involved in the heroin trade. The implications of these data are briefly considered.

If legal inferencing systems are to be used for immediate practical application, they are best constructed by embedding them in other technologies which can assist in augmenting and controlling the course of inferencing. Adoption of a (quasi) natural language knowledge representation assists easier development of user interpretative facilities, user control of the course of inferencing and explanation facilities. The paper explains how the DalaLex Workstation Software, particularly its inference engine, ysh, implements these approaches.
