Report Kratom May Be Reclassified as Narcotic to Curb Misuse
Picture courtesy of Wikipedia Thailand's Justice Minister Tawee Sodsong has revealed efforts to tackle the misuse of kratom leaves amidst rising public worries. Collaborating with Public Health Minister Somsak Thepsutin, Tawee is considering implementing a regulation to control kratom sales, responding to concerns raised by Yala MP Sugano Matha about potential narcotic classification. Kratom misuse, especially its mixture with other substances, has become a nationwide concern following its 2022 delisting. Some parties are still advocating for its reclassification as a narcotic to restrict its use to medical purposes only. Tawee stressed this during a House discussion, acknowledging the necessity for swift legislative action in collaboration with health authorities. Both ministers possess the power to restrict street sales of kratom, aiming to implement regulations to curb abuse, reported the Bangkok Post. The delisting has facilitated a wider kratom trade, enabling the sale of not only leaves but also kratom-based products and beverages. H However, without adequate regulation, the plant's potential for abuse has prompted discussions about stricter legal measures, including reclassification as a narcotic. As such, Tawee and his team are exploring comprehensive solutions to ensure responsible usage and control. Adapted by ASEAN Now from Bangkok Post 2025-08-22
