DPM Anutin says commercialization of cannabis will come if medical use is a success

Deputy Prime Minister and Public Health Minister Anutin Charnvirakul said today that commercialization of cannabis for economic benefit would come after the use of medical cannabis has proven to be successful and controllable.

 

He denied that his Bhumjaithai party had ever talked about liberalizing the use of recreational cannabis or commercialization during election campaigning.

 

“No party ever talked about the freedom to smoke cannabis as they wish,” said Mr. Anutin as he, however, stressed that his party realizes the positive properties of the plant, which contains CBD (cannabidol) and THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) which have been used for medical and scientific purposes. His party has been pushing for the medicinal use of cannabis extracts.

Of course not, that would've been the crime of the century.

Asked about the idea of allowing each household to plant a maximum of six marijuana plants and whether this can be regulated, Mr. Anutin shot back asking “Why not? We control the sale of liquor, cigarettes and beer? How do we know to take just one pill of paracetamol and not 20 pills at a time?”

 

Even though I don't smoke, just thinking about growing a few trees for ornamental viewing would be cool.

And how does one apply for medical cannabis treatment? Can you apply at your local clinic? What illness do you need to qualifty? And is only cannabis oil being used to treat people or can you get raw weed?

Keep asking Doctors until you find one that will give you some.Anutin says the distribution to ampaa hospitals should occur sometime this month.The registration of Pharmacists and natural medical practitioners should be completed this week.

I've never heard any Thai gov't do anything but praise themselves for their successes and never admit to any failed policies, so if this man is true to his word, Thailand could be the next cannabis mecca of the world. Then if Thailand gives in, I suspect we'll see a domino effect throughout SE Asia.......and the world will be just a little more civilized.
