Thailand to seal loophole in drug combat work. The draft regulation will now be sent to the Council of State, the government’s legal arm, for vetting. The minister said that there is a condition attached to the one-tablet rehab rule: the person must prove they acquired the drug for their own consumption and not for selling. The proposed one-tablet cut-off was intended to separate addicts from drug dealers and traffickers, he added. The ministry has proposed tightening the definition of a drug user by limiting the legally permissible number of methamphetamine tablets from the current threshold of five pills to one to seal a loophole that benefits drug dealers./.
