Leading Asia, South Korea Passes Medical Cannabis Legislation

A Global Breakthrough in East Asia

In a historic move, South Korea’s National Assembly approved the Amendment to the Narcotics Control Act on Nov. 23, to allow for medical marijuana.

The import of certain medical cannabis products could begin in the first half of 2019 – though that has not been finalized, 

A number of other East-Asian countries, Thailand and Malaysia, are in discussions to allow medical cannabis.
