Thailand, the first Asian country to decriminalize recreational cannabis, may soon experience a boom in its tourism industry, thanks to this legalization decision. Many experts from the travel industry believe the market will blossom like the marijuana plant itself.
After Thailand became the first Southeast Asian country to legalize medical cannabis in 2018, this January it became the first in Asia to legally allow marijuana. Under the new regulation, its residents are allowed to cultivate cannabis for personal use.
