Cannabis in Thailand: How far will the green gold rush go?

[Grumpy John]

From a farming point of view exactly what the rules will be for growers is the 64000 baht question.  My guess is there will be a permit system in place and those with a permit will be closely monitored.   A permit will specify how much can be grown and who it can be sold to.  Another guess is the field will be monitored 24/7 with live feed CCTV which will be paid for by the grower.

Why Wait , I just got my medical certificate for ganja already 

That's exactly what I mean by too late I have already made 3 orders of THC oil and have read numerous posts of other falangs have also bought cannabis oil. 

 

So we have medical cert.'s or prescriptions for ganja, THC oil, and cannabis oil.  

Don't think so, just one oil available here in Thailand. CBD oil, or cannabidiol oil.

THC is tetrahydrocannabinol, the chemical that is psychoactive in marijuana. 

Likely some THC in the CBD so HAGT

I think after 40 years of smoking pot I think I can distinguish between THC and no THC.It comes from a shop in Bangkok called the THC Shop and THC is clearly written on the label.Check it out!I highly recommend it.

Yes, but without a medical prescription, you might as well smoke the 'real stuff'.

This will be one of are talking points at the meeting we will have on the 24th of Nov., and it looks like the farmers will have to go to a class before thay can get a permit to grow.

And as it stands now, all hemp flower will be sold to the FDA and all oil will be solded by the FDA.

It seems like they are attempting to set up a monopoly similar to the tobacco monopoly so the elite only will benefit contrary to Anutin's desire that all Thais can benefit from the industry.It also seems to focusing on only the medicinal aspect of the plant.Do you have any indication about the industrial aspects like hempcrete,textiles and plastics etc?

It seem to me profits would increase if legalised also taxes can be collected to benefit society.
