The Philippine House of Representatives voted overwhelmingly in favor of a bill to legalize medical cannabis, marking a significant step towards the liberalization of cannabis in Southeast Asia. Chamber bill 10,439, initially presented in May 2024, received its third and final reading last week and was approved by a landslide victory of 177 votes in favor, nine votes against and 9 abstentions. However, the project still requires Senate approval to become law. Re-share credit: Laura Ramos:
