» At midnight, Vasu* was still struggling to keep his eyes closed. In a bid to cure to his chronic insomnia, the 28-year-old decided to try cannabis oil for the first time. After putting two drops under his tongue, he started to feel tranquilised. The self-administration continued until he'd eventually consumed a total of 40 drops. By 3am, Vasu had begun to hallucinate. He saw demons and had a double-vision alongside other symptoms such as a stiff tongue, speech difficulty, limb spasticity, nausea, vomiting and palpitations. In the end, he was rushed to hospital.

» Though more and more countries have legalised marijuana for medical purposes, cannabis is still illegal in Thailand. But realising the gradually shifting tide, Rangsit University founded the Medical Cannabis Research Team last year in the hope of securing scientific proof on the medical benefits of cannabis -- and, pending a possible law change, to bring it back to Thai medicine for the first time in centuries.
