    Those who don’t use cannabis need to understand addiction. Addiction becomes the cancer that we are and those who are willing to change are most adaptable. We must give up the things we love temporarily to create great growth.

    Bloomberg can’t afford a cheap translator, do we really have to read subtitles instead?

    Vote for complete decriminalisation, fully legal like krathom. Move forward Thailand. You will figure it out. Prices down to 30 Bhat gr.

    Newest cash crop? I was happy as a clam to find someone with a bag of Thai-sticks for 10 or 15 bucks a pop. In 1978.



  12. @XxXenosxX on January 19, 2024 at 10:58 pm

    Hopefully a more youthful government wins in the upcoming elections and can make meaningful change. Changes to the royalty would be a great first step



  13. @spoonfed7724 on January 19, 2024 at 10:59 pm

    I’ve haven’t been to Thailand since the legalisation but what’s the edible market like out there? As a smoker for over 15 years, I want to start to move onto edibles to minimise the harmful effects of smoking.



  14. @oe5580 on January 19, 2024 at 11:00 pm

    From dream of legalisation to dream of clear regulations

    Fast überall bekommen Länder einen guten Umgang mit Cannabis hin…nur Deutschland nicht….immer im falschen Land geboren zu sein nervt ein wenig. Alkohol kills Cannabis chills

    A innocent plant that has been villianized by the alcohol industry since the 1930’s here in America, where it classified as a more dangerous drug than the most powerful and lethal drugs ever invented. When in fact, it’s not lethal nor dangerous at all, just stiff competition by Mother Nature…

    Why is he growing with lights in thailand? That doesnt make sense. Europeans do that to simulate 12/12 day night as they have shorter days.

    Standard & Poor’s Global Rating Agency has increased El Salvador’s credit rating. According to S&P Global Ratings, the long-term rating of CCC+ reflects the country’s dependence on favorable trade, financial, and economic conditions to meet its financial commitments.

    It’s not a narcotic. It’s basically equivalent to coffee. Why must we flummox everything?



  32. @jasonx4179 on January 19, 2024 at 11:25 pm

    From an agricultural stand point is there a quicker and more expensive crop that can grow is a denser space? It is profitable. Only which model does the farmer use?



  35. @sagecapra6442 on January 19, 2024 at 11:27 pm

    It’s a manufacturing crop with numerous applications.



  36. @gaoxiaen1 on January 19, 2024 at 11:27 pm

    There are always killjoys who can’t stand to see people peacefully enjoy themselves. They must think that a drunken brawl is more entertaining.

    In India it is known as Saste Nasha.. which means it weakens people’s character. The more characterless people in a country the more easy it is to run 🎉🎉



  41. @felicianoabe on January 19, 2024 at 11:33 pm

    The Philippines will hopefully fallow soon (just like monkeys, monkey see monkey do. Instead of legalizing it earlier )
