Thailand Bans Cannabis Sales Without Prescription 3 Years After Decriminalisation | Spotlight | N18G

The Thai government is implementing a significant U-turn on its cannabis policy, just three years after becoming the first Asian country to decriminalise it. Thai Health Minister Somsak Thepsutin recently signed an order banning cannabis sales without a prescription and reclassifying cannabis buds as a controlled herb. This shift aims to combat the under-regulation that has led to increased accessibility, particularly for children, and a surge in addiction and smuggling cases involving tourists. Cannabis advocates are strongly protesting this move, calling the changes politically driven and planning rallies at the Health Ministry next month. The crackdown has left tens of thousands of cannabis shop owners and businesses, many in tourist hubs, stunned and worried about their future. They've invested heavily, and now face uncertainty about the legality of their operations and a lack of clear remedies from the government. Thailand now faces the challenge of balancing public health concerns with the economic impact on those whose livelihoods depend on the cannabis industry. Watch this video to know more.
