BANGKOK: The government will take a stand on the use of cannabis for medical purposes before the end of the year, says Health Minister Khairy Jamaluddin.
Khairy’s visit was at the invitation of Thailand’s Deputy Prime Minister and Public Health Minister Anutin Charnvirakul to explore the potential health benefits of cannabis. Thailand is the first Southeast Asian country to legalise the use of cannabis for medicinal purposes. Khairy explained that the use of cannabis for medical purposes was not new in Malaysia because in 2014, Sativex containing cannabidiol and tetrahydrocannabinol was approved for use in Malaysia to treat muscle spasms."The existing laws and framework allow the use of cannabis for medical purposes," he said.
Khairy added that for a start, Malaysia only sees the use of cannabis products for medicinal purposes and not its cultivation.
So than Khairykj can use it publicly. Not curi2 guna mcm sebelum ni
Against this…more damage than cure.
