That is, as long as I can figure out a way to turn it into actionable product.

It will work with anything, but you will need to get it into a certain temperature bracket to kill offthe THCA molecules that encapsulate the desired THC. If you don’t, it will have no effect.

So I heard.

Gotta laugh:

Cannabis guide for tourists issued
Ministry of Public Health aims to clarify what visitors can and cannot do
PUBLISHED : 5 JAN 2023

The Ministry of Public Health has issued a guide titled “10 Things Tourists Need to Know about Cannabis in Thailand” to improve visitors’ understanding about what they can and cannot do with cannabis in the country.

Meanwhile, the ministry wants to ensure that visitors are clear on what the law permits so that they can act accordingly. It has asked provincial tourism offices to distribute the English-language handbook to visitors and it plans to make it available in other languages including Chinese, Korean, Japanese and Russian.

The guide can also be downloaded here.

The 10 things tourists need to know are as follows
1. Carrying seeds or parts of cannabis plants from and to Thailand for personal purposes is not permitted.
2. Cannabis cultivation is legal but registering on the Food and Drug Administration’s Plook Ganja application or through a government website is required.
3. Using cannabis flower buds for research, export and sale and processing them for commercial purposes requires an official permit. 4. Individuals under 20 years old, pregnant women and breastfeeding women are not eligible to use cannabis except under the supervision of health professionals.
5. Possession of extracts containing more than 0.2% tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and synthetic THC requires permission
6. Dishes containing cannabis are available in authorised restaurants.
7. Approved cannabis health products are accessible through specific channels.
8. Smoking cannabis in public spaces, including schools and shopping malls, is illegal.
9. Avoid driving after consuming food or health products containing cannabis.
10. Those who have serious undesirable health outcomes from consuming cannabis should promptly see doctors for treatment.

Well that really clears things up.

Probably issued this after the bill failed yet again, with seemingly no chance now of it ever getting passed before the election. It seems be getting deliberately sabotaged now.

The fate of the Bhumjaithai Party’s Cannabis Bill has been thrown into limbo once again, after numerous MPs refused to declare their presence in the chamber, bringing the House meeting to a premature end due to the lack of a quorum.
The House was scheduled to vote on Section 11 of the bill, which the scrutiny committee had proposed for deletion, but several MPs disagreed and wanted the bill to be withdrawn.
Pheu Thai MP for Lop Buri, Ubolsak Bualuang-ngam, told Deputy House Speaker Supachai Phosu, who was chairing the meeting, not to waste the time waiting for more MPs to show up to make the quorum.
He said that the bill will not be approved by the House anyway and, hence, it should be withdrawn from the agenda.
Supachai waited for about 35 minutes, but only 204 MPs formally declared their presence in the chamber by inserting their ID cards. Others, who were physically present, refused to do so.
He then adjourned the meeting at about 3pm.
This was the first time this year that a House meeting has collapsed due to a lack of a quorum.
The Cannabis Bill, which seeks to decriminalise the medicaluse of cannabis and hemp, overwhelmingly passed its first reading in the House in June last year, but opposition to it has since increased, as concerns grow over the recreational or non-medical use of cannabis and its extracts, especially among youth.

Yep but this one is potentially a money maker for less than honest BiB.

How the hell does a buyer know the THC content when purchasing?

The CBD oil that my friend is producing is clearly labelled as 'less than 0.2%'. Not that this answers your question, I don't have a clue what the actual THC content is. Having tried the oil my guess is that the THC content is about zero.

Most of the vendors I've seen tend to label their products with THC content and the "effects".

Of course they are probably doing this anecdotally, because testing is not cheap.

I get mine from "my guy" and bypass the vendors and shops. He was just by this morning and dropped this off to sample. Same stuff is going for the big bucks in the hi/so shops. All tested and labeled up, and as usual not centered right...
