Malaysia’s vaping regulation sends a global message, says the Coalition of Asia Pacific Tobacco Harm Reduction Advocates (CAPHRA).
It says the Ministry of Health is making good progress with its imminent legislation to regulate vaping – making it of global importance.
The Coalition is a regional alliance of consumer tobacco harm reduction advocacy organisations. Its mission is to educate, advocate and represent the right of adult alternative nicotine consumers to access and use of products that reduce harm from tobacco use.
CAPHRA says considerable and effective advocacy from local consumer groups over recent years was key to the Government’s decision last year to legalise liquid nicotine and move forward with regulation.
Malaysian vape advocates and users also applaud the Ministry of Health’s efforts as it now prepares the new act to strictly regulate the safety and sale of vaping products.
