The Court held Lau Tak Ming sentencing guidelines apply to cocaine; the trial judge erred in using a 12‑year starting point for the quantity involved (very substantial) and overstated the mitigation from transit/foreignness; appropriate sentence for the trafficking count is 15 years but reduced to 14 years to reflect review increase and plea mitigation.
