Malaysia eyes Thailand’s medical cannabis policy, as Kuala Lumpur contemplates its own marijuana strategy

Malaysia may soon be following in Thailand’s footsteps towards legalizing cannabis for medical use. According to Thailand’s health minister, Anutin Charnvirakul, he recently had a discussion with his Malaysian counterpart, Khairy Jamaluddin, about the potential benefits of the herb. With plans to further this conversation during Khairy’s visit to Thailand in November, it’s an exciting development for the use of cannabis in the region. In fact, Anutin has even proposed organizing a special medical marijuana tour for Khairy, giving him the opportunity to witness firsthand the extraction process of the plant’s clustered flowers for medicinal purposes. Are you excited about this potential medical breakthrough?
