Investors in cannabis businesses are calling on the government to clarify its support as well as laws related to cannabis usage, fearing the fledgling industry may be affected by the House of Representatives' withdrawal of the Cannabis and Hemp Bill from its agenda earlier this month.

I didn't realise that Uruguay legalised it years ago. But who's hogging all the good stuff?
Legal marijuana, but Uruguayans still prefer black market

While reading about the Progressive Liquor Bill I noticed this mentioned....
Government chief whip Nirote Sunthornlekha explained today that neither the government nor Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha has anything to do with whether this Bill or the Cannabis Bill will pass the second and final readings in the House.
He explained that the final decision whether to approve the bills, which have been returned to the House after approval by their respective scrutiny panels, rests with individual MPs in early November.
Well it looks like it's going to be a good "high" season after all.
The Democrat Party said on Wednesday it will vote against its coalition partner's cannabis bill because it ignores concerns about social problems.
Coalition parties clash over cannabis bill
Well bugger me ass and fuck me face! said suck me slimy Sue. Never thought I would agree with cyrille. A great way to get some data from a very big social experiment, at least while it lasts. Alas, it will be just another missed oportunity by the government, however hopefully some foreign governments may try to look at the stats and glean something useful from them.
Incidentally, sausages seems to have tempered his posts. Is he perchance mellowing out under a palm tree with his favourite bong somewhere?
Sadly, the government will no doubt flip flop a few times untill they make sure the "right" people are the ones getting the biggest cut from this brave new venture that they, as usual, have rushed head long into, giving it as much thought as a thai driver would give to oncoming traffic while making a U turn on the highway.
Selling pre-rolled cones in our establishments has turned out to be a nice little earner. It's not top shelf stuff, more of a house Grouse over a Islay Single Malt but at 2,000 baht A FUCKING KILO and 100b a cone with an estimated 0.8g per serving with no tobacco...
Do the math.
Lang may yer lum reek...
Opposition parties and the Forensic Physician Association of Thailand (FPAT) have asked the Administrative Court to issue an injunction to halt the decriminalisation of cannabis and hemp.
After submission of their petition yesterday (Thursday), Dr.Chonlanan Srikaew, opposition leader and leader of the Pheu Thai Party, told the media that they share the concerns of forensic physicians over the widespread non-medical use of cannabis, following the issuance of an edict by the Ministry of Public Health removing cannabis and hemp from the Category 5 drug list on June 9th.
He claimed that the decriminalisation of cannabis and hemp has proven to have more disadvantages than advantages.
FPAT President Dr. Smith Srisont said that the Public Health Ministry’s edict was issued without proper consideration, resulting in widespread recreational use of cannabis, such as in food and drinks and cosmetics.
Decriminalization of cannabis and hemp has been the flagship policy of the Bhumjaithai Party, a member of the governing coalition.
The Cannabis Bill, initiated by the party, passed its first reading in the House. It was, however, heavily amended by the House Scrutiny Committee, after the Thai Medical Council and a number of physicians raised concerns about the widespread use of cannabis for non-medical purposes.
Even the Democrat Party, which supported the bill during the first reading in the House, has now changed its position.
Dr. Chonlanan said that, although the bill had been heavily revised by the House Scrutiny Committee, the opposition willnot endorse it during its second and final readings, because the essence of the bill, regarding the non-medical use of the plants, remains intact.
Bloomberg - Are you a robot?
The cannabis bill, which passed the first reading in June and was designed to give the government more control over the industry, was withdrawn from a parliament session in September after several lawmakers said the draft lacked enough provisions to prevent recreational use and threatened to vote it down. The bill is expected to be reintroduced for parliamentary debate this month.

Can the genie be jammed back Into the bottle?
I do hope not a typo for do the meth?
I believe in simplified English go figure or do the Mathematics is summed up this
As for the reefer rights , they could either be gone in/with a puff or licensed taxed once the regime realizes an already dopey proletariat can be medicated at their own expense, seldom see stoners rioting more like down the 7-11 with munchies if hearsay is anything to go by.
Some are concerned that stimuation via stupeficants may encourage the populace to embrace, sodomy, somtam and Lakorn , no goat will be safe.
It is well know it may prove a gateway drug to such heady risks as mindless addiction to appointed leaders, sugary drinks, TD and unprotected sox.
Because our bars are business and nor companies they pay the yearly tax as required by law already. It's not much, maybe around 8kb.
Unlike a company, where they must charge you VAT per transaction and also throw in their service charge.
Our staff keep the tips between them equally.
Anyway, I've decided that once I've doubled my money on the cones I'm going to trial a 'free weed' period where paying customers are welcome to free weed in an experiment to see how it affects food and alcohol sales.
If you're fkin 14 years old.
And watching The A Team too much.
