Original text on this topic:
In theory, Hong Kong stopped imports in February 1979, Japan in November 1980 and Singapore in October 1986, which might explain why the North Yemen market for rhino horn dropped from a peak of 4 tons (or 1500 dead rhinos) in 1980 to about 400 kg per annum since 1986. (In 1982, Yemen prohibited the import, but not the export of rhino born.)
