Vape association calls for separate regulations


PETALING JAYA: The Generational Endgame (GEG) Bill has met opposition from the Vape Consumers Association of Malaysia, which wants a separate regulatory framework for the industry.

"We oppose it in its current form and the delay has prompted us to express concerns regarding the potential impact of the anti-smoking Bill on consumers, existing smokers and the livelihood of many Malaysians," association president Tengku Aslahuddin Jaafar said in a statement on Friday (Oct 27).
