Now think about why is dope going to be reclassified as a narcotic. Now think about the article and should dope be recriminalised. It's called critical thinking. Not everyone is good at this. Obviously they dont GAF about the people and how safe a drug is otherwise alcohol would have been banned a long time ago and weed would be legal everywhere. Its all about money, politics and power. So just save your breath and your health .

Absent you being raised Thai and Buddhist you know NOTHING about Thai society, or Thai social/political relationships. You can make all the assumptions and value judgments you want but you know nothing. NOTHING. As do I. And what may be obvious is unknowable for Westerners and unspeakable here. Aren't we lucky that we have you that knows everything to set Us westerners Straight .

The U.S. government is at war with the Mexican drug cartels, yet it is heavily involved with the tobacco industry, which kills more than 400,000 Americans a year. Now, that's real corruption! For sure the US is corrupt ,most countries are in some ways corrupt.

Its good to see that you are one of the folks not proud of your lack of knowledge, which you then show to the entire world; but rather humbled and motivated by it.

It might be a terrific flip flop for all I know. But many people have said to me that it is a very bad flip flop. The best people say that. Most people didn't even know these things. And I have the absolute right to say this. Let's make flip flops great again! Let us not forget that Thailand has a long history of flip-flops. 1782 to 1939 Siam. 1939 to 1945 Thailand 1945 to 1949 Siam 1949 to today Thailand.

The 1st two I can do and cause more harm to my body than the 3rd. The 1st two are legal and the 3rd is about to be reclassified as a class 5 narcotic the same as meth and heroin. Simply insane.

If you think this is a positive move then that's your opinion which you are entitled to.

Having spent over 30 years in Thailand and SE Asia I am not too surprised at anything...let alone incredulous. It seems the weed investors knew at the start that it was all a bit of a gamble and were prepared to take that risk. As i personally dont smoke any more Im not bothered either way though it may be better if less ahole weed tourists come.
May 13, 20241 yr Popular Post Obviously purely Thaksin's idea. Puppet PM Srettha didn't mention anything about a policy to completely decriminalize. He talked about stricter control, as already advocated by Anutin from the beginning and told weed shop owners they would still be allowed to continue in business. Now Thaksin is out of hospital and taken off the neck brace, he is showing his fangs and taking control of everything, based on the non-existent mandate of a lost election.
May 13, 20241 yr On 5/12/2024 at 7:53 AM, GRIMMY said: The decriminalizing of cannabis was a last resort tactic by the previous dictatorship led by Prayut Can-o_cha to gain votes. If you didn’t realise that and decided to open a cannabis shop thinking everything would be okay with a new government, then you were gravely mistaken. I doubt Prayut or Pravit are dope smokers and both were probably not in favour of the decriminalization. It was a policy of Anutin's BJP which Prayut and Pravit tolerated. Neither ever said anything in favour or against to my knowledge.
