KUALA LUMPUR: The government's moderate approach of imposing a tax on the sale of vape liquids for ecigarettes beginning April 1 is seen as a win-win situation for industry players and in the government's efforts to control the smoking habit among the people in the country.

Malaysia Retail Electronic Cigarette Association president Datuk Adzwan Manas said the approach was appropriate given the vape industry had been developed by small and medium enterprises and local entrepreneurs.

Meanwhile, Malaysian Organisation of Vape Entity president Samsul Kamal Ariffin said his team has been fighting for almost 13 years for the vape industry to be regulated. He said Malaysia needs regulations to, among other things, determine specific and controlled locations or areas for the manufacture of vape liquids, and to implement rules such as the distance between the premises and schools as well as the age limit of individuals who are allowed to enter the premises in addition to guidelines for vape users.
