Thanks for the update Tim!
Nothing has changed in my town. Just be discreet when smoking in public areas, especially crowded beaches, restaurants, etc. Don’t put the Bar/Restaurant owners in a difficult situation, step around the corner off the street, unless the venue is openly 4/20 friendly.
Thanks Tony for some clarification, appreciate what you do
So why haven’t officials gone and test the weed in these shops if it’s under 0.2% since this law came to be? They are very well aware what is sold and it’s been allowed
Ok, off to the Quack next time I wander over then I guess.
it’s still business as usual. Just walk into any dispensary shop (many still in business). Everyone know it’s not on the new government’s agenda.
Thailand followed suit NZ Aus with medical only . No doubt under pressure to do so NGOs?
Cheers,Tim.
Seems like one of those issues that just drifts from one non-decision to the next …… and the coming 4 months are unlikely to see that changing.
As an enthusiastic amateur in my youth, who has since managed to abandon all vices bar one, it is only a matter of academic interest to me – but just looking at the huge investment in glitzy emporiums around BKK, there are likely to be some very aggrieved businessmen if the reversal becomes complete and permanent.
Also a HUGE glut of retail rental space !!
Cannabis creates hopeless societies. Minus human development.
