Asia Thailand announced the legalization of cannabis, and millions of cannabis seedlings were distributed to the public free of charge

Thailand's Ministry of Public Health issued a notice announcing the entry into force of the decree on the removal of cannabis and cannabis products from the national list of category 5 drugs. The move means the cultivation, import, export, distribution, consumption and possession of hemp and hemp products are officially legalized in Thailand.

According to a BBC report on June 9, the Thai government even gave away 1 million cannabis seedlings to the public.

According to a report by the Bangkok Post on June 10, the Thai government hopes that after the legalization of cannabis, the trade related to it will promote the development of agriculture and tourism in the country. Paisarn Dunkum, secretary general of the Thai Food and Drug Administration (FDA), said that on the morning of the 9th alone, the app for cannabis cultivation registration in Thailand was downloaded more than 50,000 times, and more than 150,000 people completed cannabis cultivation registration. Once registered, people can grow 6 potted cannabis plants at home and use cannabis for commercial or medical purposes.

Paisan said Thailand's Food and Drug Administration is issuing electronic certificates to people who successfully register, adding that the government will revoke them if people abuse them.

In addition, after the legalization of cannabis, diners can enjoy dishes and drinks containing cannabis in Thai restaurants, and medical institutions across Thailand can also be more free to use cannabis as a treatment.

Thawatchai Chaiwat, deputy director of Thailand's Prison Department, said that with the legalization of marijuana taking effect, a total of 3,071 prisoners serving sentences for crimes involving marijuana were released from prisons across Thailand on the 9th.

It is worth mentioning that Thailand has still not removed hemp oil extracts containing more than 0.2% THC (the psychoactive ingredient of cannabis) from the list of Category 5 drugs. In addition, recreational use of cannabis is still prohibited in Thailand.

Lt. Col. Roy Ingkapairote, deputy chief of the Thai National Police, has previously said police will not arrest anyone who smokes marijuana at home, but smoking marijuana in public is still considered an obstruction and could face charges.

According to the BBC, Thailand's parliament is considering a broader cannabis control bill, and in the coming years, Thailand may further relax its regulations.

According to previous reports, on February 8 this year, Thai Minister of Public Health Anoatin signed a ministerial proclamation to remove cannabis and cannabis products from the national list of category 5 drugs, a decision that will take effect in about four months. Thailand has thus taken a big step towards becoming the first Southeast Asian country to legalize cannabis.
