Dozens of pro-cannabis advocates gathered at the health ministry in Nonthaburi, Thailand, to oppose the government's intention to relist cannabis as a narcotic, two years after its decriminalization. The rally was a response to Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin's recent statement expressing his desire to reclassify the plant by the end of the year.
Thailand made history in 2022 by becoming the first Asian country to decriminalize cannabis for medical purposes. However, concerns have arisen due to the unregulated nature of the market, leading to public backlash over potential misuse and crime.
