Drug Test After Your Thailand Holiday?

Samantha Chong, Human Rights Lawyer & Drug Policy Reform Advocate

Drug Test After Your Thailand Holiday?

In July, 12 out of 71 Malaysians were tested positive for cannabis after returning from Thailand as a result of a random screening done by the police at the Perlis border. We look at what the laws say about consuming cannabis in a country where it is legal, and what our rights are when we’re asked to take a drug test by the police.
