Since legalization, tens of thousands of large corporations and hundreds of small firms have sold cannabis- and hemp-based products. Family farms may cultivate cannabis on up to 15 rai for use as fiber, stems, and roots. In November, an additional cannabis expo will be held at Chang International Circuit in Buri Ram. Personal cultivation of up to 15 plants per home would be permitted. The Herbal Product Act permits hospitals to grow medical cannabis under this new legislation.

In order to facilitate people’s ability to learn more about HIV and AIDS, request a free test, and request medication, Ratchada announced that the Division of AIDS and STDs would establish a formal account on the Line application called “Stand by you.” The Thai government has set aside a budget of roughly 4 million baht to address the issue since it believes that children in Thailand are more susceptible to STDs and HIV infection than adults.Teenagers would consequently become more knowledgeable about the dangers posed by the diseases. According to Ratchada, there were 520,000 HIV cases in Thailand last year, and 6,500 more are expected this year.

The Thai Cabinet authorized a nearly 1.6 billion dollar budget on September 7 to address Thailand’s ongoing flood issues. According to reports, water levels in certain regions rose to approximately 30 centimeters, which caused traffic issues, especially for tiny vehicles. In the flood, numerous electrical items suffered damage. A ten million baht damage estimate has been made. 664 million baht has been designated for new water pumps, while 912 million baht has been set aside for water management throughout the wet and dry seasons. Floods are causing devastation all around Thailand, and recently, the eastern part of the country has seen a lot of damage. Due to the village’s proximity to a canal, the water level there rose to 50–60 centimeters. The extensive amount of waste in the canal that blocked the drainage system contributed to the flood in addition to the severe rain. A representative of the Chonburi Province’s…
Despite the controversy, the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration is in discussions with BTS. It is difficult to integrate transportation providers with alternatives for public transportation. The BTSC has been considering combining Rabbit Card, a ticket that covers all means of transportation, with ticketing systems for some time. After the Pink and Yellow lines open, a new joint card might be used. While OTP focuses on one ticket, other collaborations continue. The companies are negotiating a combined MRT/BTS ticket. If the proposed legislation is passed, commuters and users of Bangkok transit will benefit from having a single card for all modes of transportation. Transport Minister Saksayam Chidchob would submit the suggestion for final approval and ratification to the Cabinet, Council of State, and Parliament if the panel approves a single Bangkok public transportation ticket. Bangkok’s traffic could get less complicated if the Office of Transport and Traffic Policy and Planning has its…
Staff from Hat Noppharat Thara – Mu Koh Phi Phi National Park on Friday saw a group of about ten bottlenose dolphins in the southern part of Maya Bay. The three-year closure of Maya Bay was successful in reintroducing plant and animal species that had vanished as a result of visitor overpopulation. The blacktip shark is the most prominent animal to return to reproduce in the bay. It was “the most gorgeous site she had ever seen,” according to a German woman. August 1 marked the beginning of Maya Bay’s closure, which will last until September 30. Prior to that, it had reopened on January 1 following a 2018 closure. A park ranger told NPR in March that no one would ever consider seeing the local sharks before the park closed, when there may be over 6,000 visitors per day. He claimed that 160 sharks may be observed on a…
The Thai Food and Drug Administration has cleared Favipiravir, Molnupiravir, Remdesivir, and Paxlovid for treatment on Covid virus patients. Dr. Manoon Leechawengongs of Vichaiyut Hospital in Thailand said on Facebook that Thailand must stop administering the ineffective medicine. Thailand should move from Favipiravir to Molnupiravir, which is cheaper. Our neighbors went from Favipiravir to Molnupiravir or Paxlovid. [Government Pharmaceutical Organization] will no longer manufacture, import, or distribute favipiravir. Thai respiratory doctor said antiviral medication raises gout risk due to higher uric acid levels. This 11-month experiment between November 2020 and October 2019 showed minimal to no benefit against coronavirus. Despite being well tolerated by infected individuals, Favipiravir did not reduce viral shedding, delay or prevent the progression to a severe infection, or shorten the time to sustained clinical recovery. Favipiravir increased uric acid by 19.9% compared to placebo. Favipiravir’s ineffectiveness against Covid-19 infections is bad news. Gout may ensue. In…
Because of the terrible flooding in the Rangsit area this week, an irrigation officer in the Thai province of Pathum Thani has been moved. Bowdaeng Takeew is in charge of the Southern Rangsit Operation and Maintenance Project. Thursday, the water in Rangsit rose to a dangerous level. Bowdaeng says that the replacement parts will be sent from outside the country and will arrive in about three days. The water level in the Rangsit Canal went from 1.78 meters in the morning to 1.8 meters in the afternoon, according to the district’s website. On the other hand, he said, water pumps made things easier. He told the RID to move faster with the draining. Nine of Rangsit’s twenty water pumps were not working. Even though no one is sure, it is thought that Bowdaeng moved because the project failed and caused a lot of flooding. A statement from the Royal Irrigation…
