Malaysia Controls Sales of Guding E-liquid
In Malaysia, the Ministry of Health announced that they will strictly control vape stores to ensure that these vape stores do not sell nicotine-containing E-liquids.
For Deputy Minister Lee Boon Chye, nicotine is a toxic substance in the 1902 Poisons Act, and only qualified personnel can dispose of it. To ensure that no nicotine E-liquid is available at the point of sale, they will conduct a comprehensive inspection of the vape store.
He said: "You need a license to sell it. If during our inspection, we find that the point of sale sells products containing nicotine, we will take measures against the owner of the store." Obviously, you need to get a nicotine E-liquid sales license to sell nicotine-containing E-liquid in Malaysia. This does not mean that Malaysia completely bans the sale of nicotine E-liquid, but instead controls and obtains qualified stores and qualified Sales staff can only sell nicotine-containing E-liquid.
The Minister of LEE remembered how the Ministry of Health considered the E-liquid proposal containing nicotine. He admits that these points of sale may announce the sale of only nicotine-free E-liquid, but will secretly sell nicotine-containing products behind the scenes.
“They may have a lot of countermeasures, but we also have corresponding coercive measures,” he added, emphasizing the powerful shock of the Ministry of Health. Minister LEE continued: "We want to raise awareness of the downsides of smoking."
In the face of a malicious article in Twitter, “They encourage people to smoke in public places,” said the LEE Minister, the Ministry of Health decided to step up public education to ban smoking in public places.
He said: "We hope to raise everyone's awareness of the unhealthy health of smoking. The measures we have taken are dissuable. We hope that people know that smoking is not good for them."
