PETALING JAYA: While it is difficult to impose a total ban on nicotine-based products used in electronic cigarettes and vapes, regulating them with excise duties would be an acceptable move, say experts.
In tabling Budget 2023 on Friday, Prime Minister and Finance Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said the government planned to impose excise duties on the liquid or gel products with nicotine that were widely used with e-cigarettes and vaping devices.
