PETALING JAYA: The Health Ministry’s proposal to raise vape liquids excise duty by 1,000% is a bold step to curb nicotine addiction; however, it must come with stricter enforcement and control measures to be effective, say anti-vaping advocates.
Consumers Association of Penang senior education officer NV Subbarow said the proposed tax hike could send a strong message to both vapers and parents who enable the bad habit.
