Thailand dreams of high-end cannabis tourism after marijuana is legalised

will visit purely for the purpose of health and wellness in 2022, putting expenditure on health and wellness tourism at $2.5bn. The country’s recreational cannabis market has the potential to be worth $424m by 2024, according to cannabis research firm Prohibition Partners.Linn is optimistic that the bill will help Thailand rebuild its economy post-Covid. “Nothing as small as marijuana use can save [an economy], but I think it could provide a spark,” he said.

Kitty Chopaka, an independent cannabis advocate based in Bangkok, says “industry people” from places including Australia, the UK and Canada are already contacting her about plans to visit Thailand following the announcement. “People are going to come to Thailand trying to find cannabis,” she says. “The cannabis industry in Thailand is growing and people in the industry are pushing so I’m sure there is no going back,” Tachanarong says.

Thailand’s public health minister Anutin Charnvirakul says the new laws will be a ‘win-win’ for people.The Food and Drug Administration , Linn says, is torn between two extremes; the tourist advocates who want no regulation and the narcotics board who want laws in place. “I’m hoping that the FDA will not listen to the two extremes and … provide clear legal space for recreational use without conditions,” Linn says.

“People are going to come to Thailand trying to find cannabis,” she says. Dude, people don’t go to Thailand to find cannabis. It finds you.
