PM backs Khao Kwan Foundation in cannabis research  for medical purposes

 

 

Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha has instructed the Public Health Ministry and universities to support Khao Kwan Foundation in the research and development of cannabis oil for medical purposes.

 

Deputy Agriculture Minister Vivat Salyakamthorn told Manager Online that both the Prime Minister and Deputy Prime Minister Prajin Jantong, who oversees the Office of Narcotics Control Board (ONCB), agreed that the recent raid on the Khao Kwan Foundation and subsequent legal action would adversely affect many cancer patients who had been receiving cannabis oil free of charge.

 

He disclosed that Prajin recently called a meeting with executives of the ONCB, during which the latter made clear that marijuana extracts are efficacious in medical applications and that officials should refrain from taking action against those engaged in the research and development of medical marijuana.

It's all about the health benefits ….. right

 

 

so funny since medical use was approved so many people have been arrested - controlled - shut down

 

how about the Government offering it free to those that need it - no profit, no money just freeeeeeeeeeee

Which means that...their envelopes were of correct thickness and prescribed weight.

In January last year PM Prayut was anti medicinal cannabis. But he has now done a switcheroo which suggests you are correct and envelopes have been upgraded to a size which is acceptable to the junta.

Cha Cha could use some non medical kind once in a while.   It would relieve that tenseness in his face and other places. 

 

Why should he back one foundation over another?   High school class presidents have better governing skills.
