Thailand has become the first country in Asia to approve the de facto decriminalization of marijuana, although authorities have left a grey area around its recreational use.

Health Minister Anutin Charnvirakul announced that the Narcotics Control Board had approved the dropping cannabis from the ministry’s list of controlled drugs.

The delisting by the ministry’s Food and Drug Administration will now need to be formally signed by the health minister and enters into effect 120 days after its publication in the government gazette.

It follows the removal of cannabis, a plant species to which both marijuana and hemp belong, last month from the list of illegal drugs under Thailand’s Narcotics Law.

A tangle of related laws means that production and possession of marijuana remains regulated for the time being, leaving the legal status of recreational marijuana use in a grey area.

The Health Ministry measure retains on its list of controlled drugs parts from the cannabis plant that contain more than 0.2% by weight of tetrahydrocannabinol, or THC, the psychoactive ingredient that gives users a high.

Thailand in 2020 became the first Asian nation to decriminalize the production and use of marijuana for medicinal purposes.

Under changes made in 2020, most parts of the cannabis plant were dropped from the “Category 5” list of controlled drugs, but seeds and buds, which are associated with recreational use, were retained.

The proposal now being implemented by the FDA removes all parts of the plant from the list.

Health Minister Anutin has been the driving force behind decriminalizing marijuana.

He is the leader of the Bhumjai Thai Party, a major partner in the country’s coalition government, and campaigned in the 2019 general election for legalization of marijuana production to aid farmers. The latest measure is also seen as helping to promote cannabis products as a major industry in Thailand.

Anutin said last week that the FDA’s delisting “responds to the government’s urgent policy in developing marijuana and hemp for medical and health care benefits, developing technology and creating income for the public.”

Cannabis and kratom have completed their long journeys to legalization, in what was seen as an uncharacteristically liberal move by conservative Thai authorities.

Given that alcohol and cigarettes remain tightly controlled in Thailand, these once-banned herbs have come a long way in a short space of time.

The newly amended Narcotics Code lists neither cannabis nor kratom as illicit drugs.

These herbs are now being touted for their huge potential in helping both patients and the Thai economy.

Currently, all parts except the buds and flowers of cannabis are legal, but the herb can only be used in medicine and certain products such as food and cosmetics.

Recreational cannabis is still illegal, though there are signs that this too could change in the future.

Thousands of farmers have already formed community enterprises to grow cannabis, while big companies like JCK International are investing large sums and drawing up solid business plans to exploit this once-illegal plant.

Anutin has managed to get several cannabis-based medicines included in the list of national drugs.

This means public hospitals can prescribe cannabis remedies to patients .

Meanwhile, cannabis clinics are mushrooming across Thailand.

So, what do you think about this?
Has common sense prevailed, and do you think the Thai government are looking to be ahead of the game in regards to the financial benefits of these plants?
I believe it’s a fantastic step forward for the country and its people.
