Johor vape sale ban remains amid ‘energy stick’ concerns


YONG PENG: Johor is still enforcing the ban on the sale of vapes, a restriction that has been in effect since 2016 following the decree of His Majesty Sultan Ibrahim, King of Malaysia.

“So far, none of the local councils in Johor has issued business operating licences to those selling vapes and related products,” said Johor Health and Unity Committee chairman Ling Tian Soon, who added that the state is still waiting for further instructions on the action that can be taken against those who sell the product.
