In the past, I have noticed many locals in Thailand spend time with some herb, but I have always had just enough fear to avoid it myself. I wonder just how common and illegal marijuana is in Thailand.

I have heard horror stories, mostly rumors, about illegal drug use in Thailand, but most stories involved much stronger drugs. I have never met anyone personally nor heard any stories about people having legal troubles resulting from pot use.

Does anyone here "know of anyone" who has had negative experiences in these delicate matters?

Alternatively, does anyone here have happy stories on the same subject?

hi'

anthemite ... it's a little provocativ to talk about this kind of subject ... to say the least.

as a drug "herb" is illegal here as in most of the countries in the world, but as they say on tv, "grass" is not the public enemy number one anymore, they have to deal with, as you say, more dangerous drugs, like these amphetamins pills and so on ... it a real serious concern as it reaches the schools.

if you use or plan to use "any drug" reconsider it,

this is not a rule to break ...

and may I say, we can find fine wine here now  

anyway, have a good time and take care of yourself
