Sydebolle Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 Tell the Chief clown of the circus in the public health part of the show, that the Netherlands legalized ganja back in 1972 for personal use. I am sure he was in contact with the Dutch Minister of Tourism (do they have such a Ministry at all or is it done by professionals?). Did the Dutch quality tourism spike after that to compensate for the 75% of the former tourism (claimed by Thais) missing now? The remaining 10 million are yet to be seen unless, of course, there is free of charge weed of the first order available with the tourism promotion tour bus. Then we have the "mother of all tourism resurrection" under the guided leadership of some completely stoned officials ???? What next; looking forward to breaking news from the funny hat department coming flying in tomorrow bright and early again ........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does not make much difference whether it is alcohol or some form of mind altering substance. I heard that deaths on the Rds actually go down when weed is made legal. As a lot of people who would usually be drunk when driving are stoned instead and while its not good to be high when Driving it's better then being drunk. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tourists beware. this trickery will turn many people off from visiting Thailand. how stupid does this govt they think tourists are? book a vacation to sample CBD products that have already been available to the rest of the free world for years? REALLY?! they congratulate themselves for being forward thinking without realizing how far behind they actually are. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting high isn't one of them. Perhaps it should be? Seems most of those in authority speaking on the subject are already high....... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He seems to think that he will be attracting people who want hemp products and not the real deal. 'Pipe' dream on dude Canada is great for weed smoking compared to most places in the World, including the USA. I would say. You get one gram for $3 (Canadian dollar). No many places in can smoke weed legally. Now I don't know how many people will travel to Canada, a hellishly cold place, for smoking weed. I won't though I live almost on the border.

Dumbfounded Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 8 hours ago, webfact said: It was held under tha asupices of the Thai Ministry of Public Health whose leader and Bhumjai Thai party boss Anutin Charnvirakul has promoted ganja for health and economic benefits in his manifesto. Keynote speaker Chartchai Rotrungrangsri noted that Thailand would be involved in a battle for tourists as the pandemic eased. He described marijuana as Thailand's "secret weapon" noting that the country was the first in the region to relax laws. He claimed that tourists would flood in as a result giving the country an edge over other nations in Asia claiming that "nine out of ten tourists" would want to try ganja and hemp products, reported Siam Rath. He said that Thai ganja was highly regarded comparing it with Khao Horm Mali (Jasmine Rice) for its tourism pulling power. Even though this is about pot I do believe that Anutin has now also discovered LSD ???? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blumpie Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 I am willing to bet one million dollars to anyone that they will not only not flood in but nobody will care at all. Currently live in a country where it was legalized. No extra tourism, no such thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

desert dueller Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 Thailand making good on its promise of attracting the high fliers of this world: getting high on a high floor balcony with a low balustrade will result in plentyu more of those high as a kite experiences of giving it a go, only to tragically end up totally smashed on the concrete parking area. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aussienam Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 9 hours ago, sambum said: The strength of the cannabis we are talking about here would not be enough to give a lab rat a buzz! Your comment reminds me of an incident where a former colleague of mine who was a "Special" in the UK police force was undergoing training as a Cadet with a view to becoming a regular full time Police Officer. The instructor this particular day IMHO should not have been allowed to teach prospective Cub Scouts let alone prospective Police Officers! Acccording to my colleague, he said "Anybody who starts off by smoking pot is going to become a drug addict". Apart from that being a complete fallacy, this is what trainee Police Officers are being taught by people who are supposed to be experts in their particular field! It's like saying that any youngster who drinks a bottle of beer is going to become an alcoholic, and the chances of anybody ending up in a psychiatric hospital after smoking a couple of joints is equally remote. I am talking about full strength fully legalized cannabis, with hydro heads that contain a potent THC content. Not what currently is being sold without THC. And the argument of cannabis being a gateway drug to harder narcotics is polarized by medical professionals - valid arguments for and against. I have no bias and accept it is a drug with some risks and also some benefits. My comments did not include the gateway drug argument. And there is evidence of permanent psychosis from cannabis use for some unfortunate people. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
