There seems to be a randomizing element - When I crossed, an officer
had to push a button which gave me a red light. Fortunately, that only
meant having all of my luggage go through the X-ray machine. And all
in all, I am pretty sure they weren't even looking at it - I brought 2
Kg of corn flour for some friends who specifically requested for
it. Were I to see them as a customs officer, I'd immediately think it
was cocaine or something like that.
