Thailand and really most of Asia from my understand, has beyond zero tolerance for cannabis.

Thailand decriminalized Cannabis use in 2022. They've tightened the rules here and there a bit, but it's the Mecca of Cannabis in Asia basically.

Every Thai I know says that they don't think it's going to happen, it is leverage so the National Government can collect more taxes. "Ok we won't ban you but you got to start paying more"

But hey that is just armchair speculation and this is a thread about Pakistan

Thailand has cannabis freaken everywhere a tourist might possibly be. I don't know it if is possible to walk in a straight line for ten minutes in Pattya, Chaing Mai, or Bangkok without seeing cannabis for sale. And that is just official places, the stuff really grows like a wild weed there so tiny stores random stores will have the tea version for sale.
