Yimvakwemini eshushu yangeCawa kwisiqithi esitshisayo sase-Koh Samui, kwaye iindwendwe eziya kwiklabhu yolwandle etofotofo ziphumle kwiisofa ezimhlophe, zihlaziya echibini kwaye ziphunga i-champagne ebiza kakhulu.
Ngumbono owothusayo eThailand, apho amakhoboka eziyobisi ayevalelwa rhoqo de kwaba ziinyanga ezimbalwa ezidlulileyo.
NgoJuni, ilizwe lase-Asia-mpuma ye-Asia lisuse isityalo kuluhlu lwalo lweziyobisi oluvaliweyo ukuze abantu bakhule, bathengise kwaye basebenzise iinjongo zonyango.
Kodwa umthetho olawula usetyenziso lwayo lokuzonwabisa awukapasiswa yiPalamente, ushiya indawo engwevu esemthethweni uninzi lwabakhenkethi ukuya “kubarhwebi be-cannabis” ngoku bayasokola ukuthatha ithuba.
"Imfuno ye-cannabis iphezulu," utshilo umnini weKlabhu yaseLwandle uCarl Lamb, ummi waseBritani ohlale e-Koh Samui iminyaka engama-25 kwaye ungumnikazi weendawo ezininzi zokuchithela iiholide.
Iindawo ekuchithelwa kuzo iiholide zaseThailand zibuyele ebomini emva kobhubhani, kodwa ngokukaMnumzana Lamb, ukwenziwa ngokusemthethweni kwe-cannabis "kwayitshintshile imithetho yomdlalo."
“Umnxeba wokuqala esiwufumanayo, i-imeyile yokuqala esiyifumana yonke imihla, kukuba, ‘Ngaba yinyani le?Ngaba kulungile ukuba ungathengisa kwaye utshaye intsangu eThailand? "uthe.
Ngokobuchwephesha, ukutshaya kwindawo kawonke-wonke kunokubangela ukuya kuthi ga kwiinyanga ezintathu entolongweni okanye isohlwayo se-$1,000, okanye zombini.
“Okokuqala amapolisa eza kuthi, senza uphononongo lokuba yintoni na umthetho, kwaye avele aqinisa umthetho kwaye asilumkisa ngawo,” utshilo uMnu.
“Kwaye [amapolisa athe] ukuba ikhathaza nabani na, kufuneka siyivale kwangoko … Siyalwamkela uhlobo oluthile lommiselo.Asicingi ukuba imbi.”
“Ifana neAmsterdam entsha,” utshilo uCarlos Oliver, undwendwe lwaseBritane kwindawo ekuchithelwa kuyo iiholide nothe wakhetha indawo edityanisiweyo esele yenziwe kwibhokisi emnyama.
“Size [eThailand] xa sasingenayo intsangu, kwaye emva kwenyanga sihambile, ukhula lwalunokuthengwa naphi na – kwiibhari, kwiivenkile zokutyela, esitratweni.Ke satshaya kwaye kwaba ngathi, "Kupholile kangakanani."yi le?Iyamangalisa le nto”.
UKitty Cshopaka akakakholelwa ukuba wayevunyelwe ukuba athengise i-cannabis yokwenyani kunye nelollipops ezinencasa ye-cannabis kwiivenkile ezimibalabala kwindawo ephezulu yeSukhumvit.
“Thixo, andizange ebomini bam ndicinge ukuba iya kwenzeka ngokwenene le nto,” watsho umthetheleli othanda intsangu.
UNksz Csopaka uvumile ukuba bekukho ukubhideka okokuqala phakathi kweekhemesti ezintsha kunye nabathengi abanomdla emva kokuba urhulumente enyanzelise ukuba i-cannabis yeyonyango kunye nonyango kuphela.
I-Cannabis extracts kufuneka iqulethe ngaphantsi kwe-0.2 yeepesenti ye-psychoactive chemical THC, kodwa iintyatyambo ezomileyo azilawulwa.
Nangona imithetho yeengozi zikawonke-wonke ikuthintela ukutshaya kwiindawo zikawonke-wonke, ayikwaleli ukutshaya kwindawo yabucala.
Andizange ndicinge ukuba into ingacinywa eThailand phambi kokuba kuwiswe imithetho, kodwa kwakhona, ezopolitiko eThailand zihlala zindothusa,” utshilo uNksz Shupaka.
Ucebise ikomiti yepalamente ekuyileni umthetho omtsha, othe wanqunyanyiswa njengoko abachaphazelekayo kunye nabezopolitiko bexoxa ngobume bawo.
Ngeli xesha, kwiindawo ezithile zaseBangkok, kukho ivumba elahlukileyo emoyeni elivakala lifikeleleka ngakumbi kunepad thai.
Iindawo ezidumileyo zobomi basebusuku njengeNdlela edumileyo yaseKhaosan ngoku zinevenkile ze-cannabis zazo zonke iimilo kunye nobukhulu.
I-Soranut Masayawanich, okanye "ibhiya" njengoko eyaziwayo, ngumenzi wemfihlo kunye nomthengisi kodwa wavula ikhemesti enelayisensi kwindawo yaseSukhumvit ngosuku lokutshintshwa komthetho.
Xa iintatheli zamazwe angaphandle zindwendwela ivenkile yakhe, kukho ukuhamba rhoqo kwabathengi abafuna iintlobo ezahlukeneyo zokungcamla, ubutyebi kunye nezinto ezahlukeneyo zokungcamla.
Iintyatyambo ziboniswa ngokuhambelana neengqayi zeglasi kwi-counter, kunye nabasebenzi be-Beer, kunye ne-sommelier, banikezela iingcebiso malunga nokukhethwa kwewayini.
“Ibingathi ndiyaphupha yonke le mihla kufuneka ndizicucuze,” utshilo uBeal.“Ibe luhambo olutyibilikayo kwaye lube yimpumelelo.Ishishini liyakhula.”
Ibhiya yaqala ubomi obahluke ngokupheleleyo njengomdlali weqonga ongumntwana kwenye yeesitcoms ezidumileyo eThailand, kodwa emva kokubanjwa nentsangu, uthi ibala lawuphelisa umsebenzi wakhe wokuba ngumdlali.
“Yayilixesha eliphambili—intengiso yayilungile, sasingenalo naluphi na ukhuphiswano, sasingenayo irenti enkulu, sasiyenza ngomnxeba nje,” utshilo uBeal.
Yayingawona maxesha alungileyo kuye wonke umntu – ibhiya yasinda entolongweni, kodwa amawakawaka abantu ababebanjelwe intsangu babanjwa kwiintolongo zaseThailand ezazixinene kakhulu.
Kodwa ngeminyaka yoo-1970, xa iUnited States yaqalisa “imfazwe yeziyobisi” yehlabathi jikelele, iThailand yachaza i-cannabis njengechiza “lodidi 5” elinezohlwayo eziqatha kunye nezigwebo zasentolongweni.
Xa yayisemthethweni ngoJuni, amabanjwa angaphezu kwama-3 000 akhululwa kwaye izigwebo zawo ezinxulumene nentsangu zarhoxiswa.
U-Tossapon Marthmuang kunye noPirapat Sajabanyongkij bagwetywa iminyaka eyisixhenxe kunye nesiqingatha entolongweni ngenxa yokuthutha i-355 kg "yengca yezitena" enyakatho yeThailand.
Ngexesha lokubanjwa, amapolisa ababonisa kumajelo eendaba kwaye abafota ngezinto ezinkulu ezibanjiweyo.
Baye bakhululwa bekwimo eyahluke kakhulu - abeendaba babelinde ngaphandle kwentolongo ukuba babambe umanyano losapho olonwabileyo, kwaye abezopolitiko babekho ukuze bavuyisane, bezama ukuphumelela iivoti kunyulo lonyaka ozayo.
Umphathiswa wezempilo ngoku, u-Anutin Charnvirakul, utshintshe umdlalo ngokuthembisa ukubuyisela izityalo ezandleni zabantu.
Intsangu yonyango elawulwa ngurhulumente yenziwa ngokusemthethweni kwiminyaka emine, kodwa kunyulo lokugqibela ngo-2019, umgaqo-nkqubo weqela lakhe yayikukuba abantu banokukhula kwaye basebenzise isityalo njengeyeza ekhaya.
Lo mgaqo-nkqubo ubonakale ungoyena uphumeleleyo kwivoti – Iqela likaMnumzana Anutin, uBhumjaitai, liphume njengeqela lesibini ngobukhulu kumfelandawonye olawulayo.
"Ndicinga ukuba [intsangu] yeyona nto ibalaseleyo, kwaye abanye bade bathi iqela lam litheko lentsangu," utshilo uMnu Anutin.
"Zonke izifundo zibonise ukuba ukuba sisebenzisa isityalo se-cannabis ngokufanelekileyo, siya kudala amathuba amaninzi kungekuphela nje [okufumana] umvuzo, kodwa [ukuphucula] impilo yabantu."
Ishishini le-cannabis lamayeza laqala ngo-2018 kwaye liyakhula phantsi kuka-Anutin, olindele ukuba izise iibhiliyoni zeedola kuqoqosho lwaseThailand kwiminyaka ezayo.
“Unokufumana umvuzo kuyo yonke indawo yalo mthi,” watsho."Ke abaxhamli bokuqala ngokucacileyo ngala mafama kunye nabo basebenza kwezolimo."
Oodade uJomkwan kunye noJomsuda Nirundorn baye baduma ngokukhulisa iimelon zaseJapan kwifama yabo ekumntla-mpuma weThailand ngaphambi kokuba batshintshele kwi-cannabis kwiminyaka emine eyadlulayo.
Aba bancinci "abarhwebi be-cannabis" banomdla kwaye bayancuma, okokuqala babonelela izibhedlele zasekhaya ngezityalo eziphezulu ze-CBD kwaye, kutsha nje, basebenza kwizityalo ze-THC zentengiso yolonwabo.
“Ukuqala ngeembewu ezingama-612, zasilela zonke, ze emva koko [iqela] lesibini nalo lasilela,” watsho uJomkwan, ekhuphe amehlo egigitheka.
Kwisithuba esingangonyaka, bafumene i-80,000 yeedola kwiindleko zofakelo kwaye banda ukuze bakhulise i-cannabis kwii-greenhouses ezili-12 ngoncedo lwabasebenzi bexesha elizeleyo abali-18.
Urhulumente waseThailand unikezele ngezithole ze-cannabis ezisisigidi simahla kwiveki esemthethweni, kodwa kumfama werayisi uPongsak Manithun, iphupha lazaliseka kungekudala.
"Sazama ukuyikhulisa, satyala izithole, kwaye emva kokuba zikhulile sizifake emhlabeni, kodwa zabuna kwaye zafa," kusho uMnumzana Pongsak.
Wongeze ukuba imozulu eshushu eThailand kunye nomhlaba kumaphondo asempuma yelizwe awufanelekanga ukukhulisa i-cannabis.
“Abantu abanemali baya kufuna ukujoyina ilinge… kodwa abantu abaqhelekileyo njengathi abafuni kutyalomali kwaye bathathe olo hlobo lomngcipheko,” utshilo.
“Abantu basayoyika [intsangu] kuba isisiyobisi – boyika ukuba abantwana okanye abazukulwana babo baza kuyisebenzisa baze babe ngamakhoboka.”
Abantu abaninzi baxhalabile ngabantwana.I-poll yesizwe ibonise ukuba abaninzi baseThailand abafuni ukuvezwa kwinkcubeko yentsangu.
