or ExitA Japanese tourist in Bangkok tries marijuana for the first time, intrigued by Thailand's de facto legalization. While many Asian countries have strict drug laws, Thailand stands out. Singapore has executed individuals for trafficking marijuana, and Japan warns its nationals about potential legal consequences abroad. China's embassy in Thailand also cautions tourists, equating marijuana consumption abroad to domestic drug use.
Despite concerns, Thailand's cannabis industry has grown rapidly, with dispensaries becoming as common as convenience stores. Foreigners, particularly from Japan, Malaysia, China, and the Philippines, form a significant customer base. Weed shops now prioritize English-speaking staff. Beginners are advised to smoke instead of consuming edibles.
Though discreet, Asian customers enjoy smoking indoors, unlike Westerners who consume openly on the streets, violating Thai regulations. The Japanese tourist, after thorough online research, found little risk of testing upon returning home. He continues to explore different shops, strains, and perfect his joint-rolling skills, relishing the experience.
Thailand's evolving attitudes and thriving cannabis industry attract curious individuals like the Japanese tourist, providing them with legal space to explore and enjoy marijuana in a once-forbidden environment.
