Thailand plans to regulate its growing cannabis industry through new legislation, potentially shelving controversial plans to reverse decriminalization.⁠
⁠
Anutin Charnvirakul of the Bhumjaithai Party, which spearheaded Thailand’s 2022 historic cannabis decriminalization, has proposed a draft bill to regulate rather than criminalize cannabis, calming tensions within the ruling coalition. The draft law will be debated in parliament, but it remains unclear if there will be a crackdown on recreational use. This move contrasts with Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin’s earlier push to reclassify cannabis as a narcotic. ⁠
⁠
Despite ongoing opposition and public protests, the regulatory approach is seen as a compromise to address concerns about cannabis use while maintaining legal access.⁠
