(CTN News) – Chiang Mai’s e-ganja vendors reveal that wealthy teenagers or government officials are their best customers. E-ganja, like e-cigarettes, is a portable electronic device that simulates smoking. Unlike e-cigarettes, the e-ganja electronic device contains cannabis oil instead of tobacco. E-ganja electronic devices, unlike conventional cigarettes , do not emit any odor or smoke, which is one of their advantages. Most smokers buy e-ganja online, and it costs about 3,000 baht. Despite not wanting to be named, a 22-year-old woman admitted she and friends regularly use e-ganja. “E-ganja can be used for two to three weeks after charging.

Backlash came quickly, and the artists were just as quick to respond. Lizzo took to Instagram to announce she had edited the lyric, noting, "I never want to promote derogatory language."
