You'll get more high from smoking bloody some herbal plant that you find growing in your garden.

You could smoke the whole crop and nothing would happen to you could still walk in a straight line wouldn't even feel anything. 

 

 

It's unfair to blame them for being upstanding by abiding by the 0.2% THC limit law. 🤣

legal for now... just don't get caught smoking in the wrong place... and even if the gov't decides to revert the laws, there will never be a shortage of ganja in Thailand...

That second sentence makes me think of people who drink so they can get falling down, puking their guts out, drunk, then brag about how much of a good time they had last night, while complaining about their terrible hangover.

I challenge you to come smoke some of the stuff out of our garden and still have the same opinion.

Cheap as chips! 😂

After reading this very confusing article I just have one question is it legal for foreigners to smoke pot in their home? That would be like a yes or no answer. Thank you very much. TIT.

No nothing fancy,some very old Thai strain.

It does the job for me and for some others who have tried.

We just put seeds in the ground and nature takes care of the rest,the way it should be.

Walk into any bar and not onlycanyou smell the weed everyone who smokes it ends up passing it around it’s going to be extremely difficult to close the industry down to many involved in the growing and distribution of it the only thing I see is the price has drastically come down for a spliff or two 

I don’t do the stuff but have been successful in growing 2 plants which produced well over 50 buds so I was proud of my achievement I tried a third one but the rainy season killed it off as I just let it grow in the garden no magic lamps just natural sunlight

I've smoked weed in bars after asking permission, it's private property. 

So the bar gives you permission to break the law? Do you ask the other customers in the bar if they mind the stink?

I'll start asking the bar for permission to drive myself home after drinking ten beers. It's a private car.

Dunno, but the bar I was in, everyone was smoking.

And I guess they've paid the police not to bother them or their customers.

 

Same for drink driving,

Just pay the police not to notice.

Depends if house or condo, some condos have rules about smoking inside.

But if nobody sees you, you can do what you like.

So, I'm a non-smoker of anything, period.  I hadn't experienced cannabis since a trip to Cambodia in 2011 where I enjoyed Happy Pizza

 

But, last year, in Pattaya, I bought a small box of "cookies" from one of the shops openly selling them on Soi Bukhaui.

I ate one in my hotel room and the effects were VERY noticeable - yup, I was stoned...but very happily!

 

I'm well over the age of consent. (Old enough to know better!) 😃

 

My minor dilemmas are:

 

Was I legal at the time? - I think the answer is yes

Would I be legal to do that now?

What if I shared said cookies with another adult?

What if, having consumed said cookies, I / we went out in public WITHOUT taking remaining cookies but still being well under the influence?  NO plans to drive  by the way.

 

These are all questions which, were I to be in UK, would be relevant and could easily cause me problems but I can't fathom out what the answers are in Thailand.

The law says not in public, a bar is private property so It's not breaking the law. And I'll only do it if the bar has no customers, easy to find in Pattaya.

I never drink or smoke and drive, if you do it's very foolish and dangerous for everyone else on the road.

Do you understand the difference between private property which you control (your own house) and private property which is open to the public (bars, restaurants, 7/11s, shopping centres, etc)?

The article states: "consuming cannabis in public spaces is a major taboo, enforced with the risk of fines or imprisonment." A bar may be private property, however it is a public space.

From your assurance that you only consume cannabis "if the bar has no customers", does that mean you immediately stop when a second customer arrives?

Following your logic I will start a similar practice. After having ten beers I will only drive on roads with no other vehicles.

I'm being deliberately contentious and somewhat pedantic here but IS a bar a private place?

If it's open to the public, it may be private property, but is it not still a public place?

 

For example, in UK there are pubs  owned by companies or individuals with Saloon and Public bars.  

 

Remember the devil is in the detail, especially in matters of law.

 

UPDATE: My post coincided with @Dr Jon above but we seem to be saying much the same thing

I would say a home not a condo 

Every night someone is smoking pot in public on Beach Road, beach side, in Pattaya, between walking street and Central Festival mall. Other public areas also have pot smokers.

But as with most bars, restricted by the licence regulations. Most regulations do not allow smoking of tobacco on the premises. 

Different rules for darling Thais cw filthy farangs(again) ?

A condo is a home for some people.
