A tourist smokes a cannabis cigarette, after it was removed from the narcotics list under Thai law, in Bangkok, Thailand, on June 9.A month after Thailand legalised cannabis, recreational use as well as public access to marijuana are still grey areas due to a lack of proper regulations.
Thailand is the first Asian country to remove cannabis from the narcotics control list with the aim of supporting its medical use and reaping economic benefits. "As long as we keep the THC level in all products below 0.2 per cent, as the law stipulates, and that buyers have to be 20 years or older. Smokers must smoke only in designated areas, Khaosan's reputation will not change and it will benefit from the plan," he said.
"The 'medical cannabis' policy favours only some factions that stand to gain [from] the economic benefits," he said, adding authorities failed to discuss the possible side effects of legalisation, including hoarding."Underground dried flowers used to be priced at 250,000 baht per kg but after the legalisation prices shot to as much as 900,000 baht.
The Royal College of Paediatricians of Thailand and Paediatric Society of Thailand released a statement warning children about the effects of cannabis.
