178 kilos, out of the estimated 350 tons produced in Colombia each year will not leave the drug cartels hurting too much, if at all.

I doubt the product made it to Poland without a payment being made, so someone is happy and others not so thrilled. You just have to look at what amount gets taken into the police / drug enforcement hands vs what is getting thru, to put it into numbers that the public can relate to.

Remember that at numerous times various Colombian cartels offered to completely pay off the country's national debt.
