Walked down Soi 11 last night in BKK and there was cannabis on sell everywhere, mobile vans were doing a brisk business, and there are at least 4 Cannabis Cafes in the Area as well as along Sukhumvit.  The pungent aroma was very obvious in the Sugar Club as well.....

I know exactly what you mean! My place smells like spilled bong water most of the time. I absolutely need to get out in the public for a breath of fresh air once in a while ????

Daughter counted 16 shops selling cannabis as I drove along Chaweng Beach Road in Samui the other day. They are popping up everywhere. There must certainly be a large demand.
