r/CannabisThailand Newsletter - Issue #61

US Surrenders?

Sawadee Everyone,

This week in "High Politics & Punchy Policies":

1. The King nods at the new cabinet while Thaksin's jail time got a major slash (from an 8-year marathon to a 1-year sprint).

2. Anutin, now handling Interior affairs, slides a nifty note to the Health Minister: "Don't even think about messing with my cannabis vibes."

3. Across the pond, a big US health department nudges the DEA: "Hey, maybe cannabis isn't as bad as LSD or meth? Let's reschedule it to chill with Tylenol with Codeine."

4. Speaking of high times, Mike Tyson tried to host a "stoned boxing" event in Samui. Spoiler alert: Thai officials weren't feeling the buzz.

5. And if the US eases up on cannabis, expect a green rush in research, global acceptance, and maybe a Thai cannabis export boom. Here's to a higher future!Cheers,
