Popular Post Jingthing Posted May 20 Popular Post Share Posted May 20 Wait for the laws to happen but it's logical to assume that if they reclassify weed as a narcotic that non medical "recreational" users will be arrested as before. 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No doubt, but if you're a foreigner and you want to buy some if it becomes illegal again, you could easily get snitched on, forced to pay a massive bribe / or sent to jail, then deported. This is an expat forum and we have risks Thais don't. 2 1 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ignore it Posted May 21 Popular Post Share Posted May 21 It will be as before. Get pinched for weed; arrest, confinement, deportation ect Or, as the RTP officers are poor (read corrupt, greedy etc) they may just confiscate the weed, accept a donation (sans receipt) to their retirement fund and William is your mom's brother. Fortunately the sinfully weed will be higher quality than pre legalization brick. 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smokers will be handcuffed and named publicly with a photo (see Donald) and then send back to where they came from. And Thais....will follow the law of course🙏 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChaiyaTH Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 (edited) Being caught for testing positive aside with like some weed was before it was legal already 5K by judge decision in court. It's just gonna become a money grab for the police, where you think the complaints come from to begin with, they want a piece of the pie. So they will soon charge all shops, and perhaps randomly take bribes from tourists too. Generally speaking I doubt any Thai nor people like me would care if it changes, keep smoking at home. I mean, they just finished building the 2nd biggest seed plant in Mukhadan, in the world. Seeds will be everywhere.

IDK I'm not sure, sellers never asked me for ID when I buy weed in Thailand, so there's no comprehensive database of users like in the US or Spain, but probably they can start sorting out Google reviews of shops because that's where I left some of my cannabis footage 🥲 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Thingamabob Posted May 21 Popular Post Share Posted May 21 Too early to say. Thaksin is behind the proposal to re-criminalize. As he has done in the past he may have over-estimated his importance in the Thai hierarchy. Many top people heve invested in the cannabis business recently. 1 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roger101 Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 As I posted before. All of you that indulge in the habit should just get out there and start buying. It's not as though the product is going to go off if you buy a year's supply while it's still legal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have smoked weed even when it was illegal. I could buy from various sources. It was a chocolate man in Bangkok, Nana security guards, and some motorcycle drivers. Even during COVID, I was able to procure it, though at a hefty cost. The quality was poor, and the cost was high. I was never caught for smoking weed but I was once caught for smoking ice. I had to pay 10,000 baht and spend all night in a room adjacent to the police station, where they wanted me to tell them about the person from whom I bought it. I bought it from a chocolate man, but I kept insisting that it was a Nana lady who came to my room and we smoked together. After four hours of interrogation, I had to pay 10,000 baht. 3 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post JimboB4 Posted May 21 Popular Post Share Posted May 21 Once again totally false information I was smoking at an outdoor restaurant just last week and no problem. I even asked for permission first and they even encouraged me to. It’s not going anywhere no matter how much the old Brits and Australians hate it. 🤣 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sumaterani Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 why do I feel like the war on weed is actually war on farmers/growers or probably am I wrong, the weed farmer are more privileged than weed smokers and dealers in black market? doesn't it means trap to keep the chain supply but with illegal status?
