Thorough research needed before making decision on industrial hemp, says Jeffrey Kitingan

KOTA KINABALU: There is a chance for industrial hemp exploration in Sabah but thorough research on this must be conducted before anything is decided, said Deputy Chief Minister II Datuk Seri Dr Jeffrey Kitingan (pic).

In his winding up speech at the state Assembly meeting late Wednesday (Dec 8), he said the components under industrial hemp such as cannabis and marijuana are illegal for growth in the country.
