PETALING JAYA: The Health Ministry needs to tighten legal provisions to prevent manufacturers of vape and tobacco products from exploiting loopholes in their marketing strategies, says the Consumers Association of Penang (CAP).
While commending the authorities for swiftly halting the operation of a vaping device vending machine at a Kuala Lumpur shopping centre, CAP president Mohideen Abdul Kader said any new legislation to regulate the sale and use of vape-related products should be comprehensive, closing all potential loopholes.
