Thailand has made the recreational use of cannabis illegal again.

Al Jazeera’s Tony Cheng reports from Bangkok, Thailand.

Very stupid of a very boomer like government bad choice boys
Shouldn’t have decriminalized in the first place. Stop taking your cues from liberal American Presidents.

Looks like I won’t be touring Thailand anymore in the future.
what’s the logic in that, I don’t even smoke and I find it pointless for it to be illegal
This is crazy… Thailand better fix this
