The Highs And Lows Of Thailand's Cannabis Rush | Undercover Asia
Рет қаралды 1,027,817
Жыл бұрынOn 9 June 2022, the Thai government took off cannabis in its banned narcotics list. As it is no longer prohibited, the sale of this product is now legal for everyone, except for those under 20 or pregnant or breastfeeding. But three months later, 39 Thai youths reported to hospitals for cannabis intoxication.
As research show the disturbing impact of even one to two experiences of cannabis use on teen brains, and the long-term harm of chronic cannabis use even as a young adult, is the kingdom gambling with its future while cashing in on the Cannabis Green Rush?
Undercover Asia examines how and why the Thai government eased cannabis restrictions, and if its new rules on weed are adequate to ensure the safety of its new generation.

I'm from Nepal, it grows wild everywhere, you can see fields of it, almost every farmer keeps a little in the villages for medical purposes for animals and sometimes humans, other than that few people smoke them, others don't really care. It's just very normal. It is really not a big thing. I'm pretty sure cigarettes have caused far more harm than weed over the years.

I am a Canadian who has been living in Thailand since 2009. Watching the program on CNA regarding cannabis in Thailand, I can't wait for a similar documentary on the effects of alcohol on both the individual and society. However, because that drug has been offically approved by governments and society, that documentary probably won't happen anytime soon.Too bad as in my lifetime I have never seen any fistfights or other violent behavior resulting from cannabis use unlike alcohol. From a media perspective, alcohol consumption is simply not controversial enough to get eyeballs on the screen.

When people say this i ask them what’s your longest break from the substance. 100 days? 200 days? A year ? 2 or more years? Most recreational users will say that their month or second month off proves they are not addicted then continually use their substance everyday or multiple times a week. Addiction can have lots of defintions and ultimately i think people use substances recreationally to mask mental health issues that have not been fixed their entire life. It’s a like a numbing feeling. Fasting can help people see themselves and their blind spots.

This CNA production on cannabis in Thailand only portrays the negative aspects of its use. If Singapore, as a country, is opposed to it, then CNA Singapore should keep their opinions to themselves and not interfere with other countries' rules and regulations. While Singapore's strict smoking rules are admirable, Thailand has a more relaxed attitude towards it, and people here can smoke anywhere without the need to stand in ridiculous yellow boxes. It's important to make the documentary fair and unbiased. Why did CNA Singapore delete information about how cannabis can save lives, especially children with seizures, adults with depression, and those with conditions like insomnia and loss of appetite? If CNA Singapore plans to produce a documentary in Thailand, they should address the FICA situation in Singapore and attacks on human rights defenders first, before stirring up trouble in other country's affairs.

Very informative documentary. One question: don't you think the increase in hospitalization is because now people feel safe to go to the hospital in the first place without getting prosecuted. Perhaps before the legalization the same amount of people consumed and experienced issues, but perhaps slept it off at home and didn't go to the hospital because they didn't feel safe to do so. I think it's very hard to see the direct correlation because the legal context has changed significantly.

Before smoking cannabis, I was a anxious mess of a young adult with no sense of direction. I drank too much and was scared to meet new people. After smoking cannabis, I exercised regularly, stopped being so anxious, and created a wonderful career. I become a millionaire and an artist. I became a more friendly person. And I've met hundreds of people who smoke cannabis. This idea saying that people's IQ will will be lowered or people are "overdosing" and dying from cannabis is absolutely ridiculous reefer-madness BS. Educating people on the how to consume cannabis safely is one thing, but pretending that it's a dangerous drug is ignorant. And it's even sillier when alcohol is far, far, more dangerous and deadly.

One of the major topics this documentary didn't report on is the drug addiction problem that Thailand (and its neighbouring countries) have been facing for many years. And what I mean by drug addiction isn't actually cannabis but is rather the meth/ice addiction/ecstacy addiction which are synthetic drugs and causes way more harm to its people. So by doing this the Thai government is trying its best to solve that issue. The subject of debate should really be the regulation of THC content thats allowed to be cultivated and sold - and just focus more on the medicinal properties of CBD. Because people can can most certainly get addicted, and it will definitely affect the grey matter at the frontal lobe of the brain and can cause psychosis (see Dr Andrew Huberman's) episode on the effects of Cannabis. I would advocate more on all governments to invest in rehabilitation programmes which is effective for society like the Narcotics Anonymous 12 step programme and curb the addiction disease. PS: the number one killer drug in this world is actually sugar & vegetable oils.(PUFA) And no major mainstream media is actually talking about it bcos.. big pharma.

Cannabis has more benefits than alcohol & tobacco, and needs to be treated exactly in the same manner. Thailand's decriminalization is on the right direction and should be lauded and looked at by other S.E. Asian nations in a positive manner, rather than negative. Recently, a man in Singapore was executed for smuggling cannabis. Which I find is a regressive judgement. Thailand is a progressive country with some of the world's loveliest people. They are sensible and the issues due to this new ruling will settle down shortly. With anything new, there is initial excitement and we humans tend to go overboard, but it will settle down.

The answer is education and sensible regulations. The problem Thailand (and many parts of Asia) has is the reactionary jump to follow the west's lead on many issues. The Cannabis ban in Thailand was done as a reaction to what the west was doing, because the west banned it Thais then banned it to be seen as a modernizing/westernized country. Then America legalized it and Thailand follows... The problem now is the centuries of common knowledge Thais had of its sensible use was lost when it was banned, now it has to be relearned and that will take time, but banning it outright again is not the answer.

Despite claims to the contrary, there is no conclusive evidence that cannabis is addictive, and there have been no reported deaths directly caused by its consumption. Meanwhile, alcohol and cigarettes are widely acknowledged as two of the most addictive substances in the world, and they are responsible for more deaths than any other drug or behavior. Despite this, they remain legal and socially acceptable in many parts of the world, leading some to question the fairness of current drug policies and the stigmatization of certain substances.

To those who support the death penalty for drug trafficking, do you know that alcohol is actually even more destructive than certain illegal drugs like cannabis or kratom. The only difference is legal or illegal. Alcohol causes road accidents, violent crimes and irrational behavior such as sexual assault. Why is there no mention of alcohol when so many people are binge drinking or abusing alcohol? I'm pretty sure if alcoholic drinks were invented recently, it would become a highly illegal substance. If the laws don't make sense, you can't expect people to obey and follow.

I'm so tired of hearing that this stuff is not addictive. If it wasn't, then there would be no need for it because no one would be buying it. The people selling this stuff is doing it purely for the money... nothing else!😒

Quite a bit of nonsense here. For one: at least depict real Thai stick! It is impossible to overdose while smoking cannabis. With edibles, yes you can get too high but it is far from deadly like say thai whiskey... And the health care providers often speak out of necessity of the security of their jobs. Yes, some people do have addictive personalities and will become addicted. But, they could very well be addicted to alcohol, tobacco, gambling.. So, should everyone be penalized for this? Nope. I have always felt that if people want to grow and enjoy it, that it is none of our government's business. But, now that they realize the economic benefits there is no stopping their greed from controlling it. Or, at least trying.
