Okay let us keep moving forward with medical and recreational usage. Asap!!!. With hope and wise thinking the government will rise the THC level up to 15%. 0.2% is better then where we were with nothing.

There are ways to concentrate even 0.2% THC pot. They will probably start selling kits on Lazada soon
