Thailand has officially delisted cannabis and hemp plants from its narcotics list, with many nations now issuing warnings to travellers

A whole host of countries around the world have urgently issued warnings to thousands of travellers.

Global authorities are cautioning tourists from both possessing and using weed in countries like Indonesia, South Korea, and Japan.

Those found carrying cannabis in these regions can face jail time, fines, or even the death penalty.

In Singapore, the government has reminded its citizens abroad against using weed in any form.

The city-state’s narcotics Bureau warns any Singapore citizen or permanent resident who is found to have consumed controlled drugs outside Singapore will be liable for drug consumption.

Singaporean authorities regularly conduct checks at various points, with those convicted jailed for up to 10 years and fined up to $ 20,000 dollars.
