I think a lot of you are missing a point here: The ganja-shops are for tourists and I doubt that opening up for sale has had much impact on Thai youth. They will not walk in to one of these new shops and pay 300 - 800 Baht pr.gram! Those who are interested in continuing their practice of smoking will keep on buying the «un-certified» ganja at f.ex 50Baht for 7-8 grams. For them nothing has changed, the politicians (and probably doctors etc) are probably just sore because they didn´t get in on the game in time.
