		The Amsterdam drugs mafia is since 25 years Amsterdam's richest, most powerful and most dangerous institution, and have become so largely thanks to Ed van Thijn, Mayor of Amsterdam from the early 1980-ies till the middle 1990-ies.
		The drugs mafia is de facto legalized in Amsterdam, while their source of income, the extra-ordinary high profits on drugs are de facto guaranteed by their political friends' decision to keep drugs illegal.
		But Mayor and Aldermen of Amsterdam, together with a considerable group of top civil servants, decided it was far more profitable for them to protect the drugs mafia rather than undercut it's basis of existence: the laws that make their trade illegal and their profits enormous.

		A report published last winter however showed that in most of the 16 burroughs political at- tention for gay issues had deteriorated over the past 10 years and a policy on gay rights and emancipation was either a low priority or non-existent.
		In a reaction the Amsterdam chap- ter of the COC informally advised its members to vote against the formation of the "stadsprovincie".
		This meant the digging of dit- ches around the area (making it less accessible for cruising gays) and building a cycle-track through the middle of the area (making it more accessible to teenagers with bikes), measures which have already been carried out and which are blamed for an increase in reports of anti-gay behaviour.
