Vaping also a common problem in schools. But the problem is how students are able to evade detection in smuggling vapes to school/class? Should there be more enforcement in clamping down vapes in schools, especially in ITE's and Polytechnic’s?
As humans, our brains are hardwired to seek out pleasurable activities that releases dopamine. Some people don't smoke, vape, drink or use drugs but yet they overindulge in other vices such as gambling or womanizing. Either that or they may overindulge in unhealthy or sugary food. It is not possible to live a life without even one single vice, since that would be against human nature. The gahment really needs to understand this
Australia is already a vaping-free country. So should Singapore 🇸🇬. - Vape liquid comes from China 🇨🇳, and you never know what the Chinese put in there.
From January 1, 2024, the Australian Government banned the importation of disposable vapes into Australia. This includes vapes with and without nicotine.
is vaping illegal in singapore? I see people vaping every where even in plain sight in Orchard Road? I thought it was legal already since everybody is doing it and in the hawker centers is so common.
Cigarette is more dangerous doesn't mean vape is good. If you have to endure 2nd hand smoke daily for years and die from lung cancer then don't regret. My cousin is dying soon because she have stage 4 lung cancer. She never smoke but work in heavy smoking environment and live with 3 household smoker.
I want to know too. I have a heavy smoker neighbour who smoke right below my kitchen and bedroom window. Recently, my Malaysian cousin was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer and doctor say she is dying cos chemotherapy didn't work well. She never smoke, she hate the scent of cigarette but she have 3 household who smoke because she co share the 3 room hdb flat with 5 other people to save on rental. She live there for 7 years. She work in heavy smoking environment for more than a decade because of the better salary payout.
My Malaysian cousin who is younger than me and have never smoke in her entire life is dying as she is at stage 4 lung cancer. She live in an environment of smokers and Vaping. The second hand smoke harms everyone. Don't be naive to assume it's other people's business if they choose to vape and smoke.
Is Vaping really banned in Singapore??? It is not about educating the people,law or penalties in place, but who is enforcing it?The government should spot check all schools and find out which school do not have students vaping . The whole problem is government is not enforcing it enough. The first line of defence is our custom. ICA is not doing their job. I fly every month, before every flight touch down, it need to be announced to all passengers the penalty of possession of vapes. Who dare brings meats to Taiwan or anything to Australia. On the flights and at airports you’re repeatedly warned by big signage and repeated announcements of not bringing prohibited substances into the country. As a parents I do not feel safe anymore to send my kids to school, when seeing their schoolmates vaping in toilet is already a common scene for them. Feedback to schools, but didn’t see any changes. When you can see people vaping openly in bus stop , on the streets, this is a reflection how incompetent our law enforcement agencies are. I don’t see the determination of the government to claim down vaping. There was a rumour, the Singapore government intention is not really to ban vaping, but they have yet to figure out how much taxes to be charge in order to regulate the practice. Maybe this is why vaping is not effectively claimed down in the country. To me as parents, this is a serious problem that we have yet see any effective action taken by government. I am always very confident with the capabilities of our government agencies, but in this matter I am very concerned.
Surprisingly, there are more vapers in Singapore than I imagined, and probably more than you do, too. With the background of all the fines and bans in place, I was surprised when I realised this.
My mum's workplace got more than 3 Malaysian worker who vape and they teach the Singaporean students to try vape too. Even dare ask my mum to try a few puff. My mum said store manager also aware and the restaurant cctv is activated but no one care.
@@celestialstar124 1. The stuff used inside are ingredients from the food industry. They are designed and tested safe for human digestion, but not for inhaling. Therefore, we do not know which of them are harmful in that application, and at what dosages. 2. The vaping industry itself is to blame. Instead of pressing for healthier liquids, they do the opposite. For example, they use ingredients, like a special type of nicotine, for making the people highly dependant. These are even more present in those small devices popular with young people, those that use sweet flavours, e.g. bubble gum, cherry candy, etc.. 3. What the garment claims is true, vaping devices offer another venue for misuse. They can be used to consume illegal substances. I worked in the flavour industry. I vaped and managed to quit smoking with the help of a vaping device. But I made my own liquid.
Is there a platform for us to report when seeing one vape? Something that allow us to instantly take a photo and post, then enforcer receiving the notification and can go act immediately?
Please stop being such a nanny state, let people have the freedom to make their own choices. It makes more sense to legalize vapes and drugs since people will never stop using them. Does the gahment not understand this or do they simply enjoy punishing people? Prohibition will never work, making something illegal just makes it more appealing to people
@@Ienteredmynamecorrectly Prohibition creates opportunities for black market criminals. No doubt criminals will be rubbing their hands together just waiting to supply vapes to Singapore. It’s low risk too. Better to smuggle vapes than hard drugs. The Singapore Government’s policy is asinine.
From January 1, 2024, the Australian Government banned the importation of disposable vapes into Australia. This includes vapes with and without nicotine.
Can proper test be done? Testing on vapes with practical usage and not with the “constant sucking machine”, does it not burn the device producing results differing from normal usage? X-rays and blood work from vapers, smokers and normal lungs? Like countries have produce lab results which shows that vaping is not healthy but healthier as compared to smoking, but yet cigarettes still legal in Singapore, which was initially introduced in Singapore to help those opium users cope with withdrawals when Singapore decided to make it illegal, which do affect others in second and third hand smoking. This would give a proper understanding to Singaporean on the harmfulness and severity, if any, and if the results shows that it as harmful as cigarettes, but still remain illegal, both vapes and cigarettes should be banned as well. A concern was that drugs could be consumed in such vape devices, then alcohol should be considered on the banning list as well, as it does alter one’s thinking as well as harmful effects on the body. Another concern is children having access to vapes, in which I say, during my time in primary school, students had already gotten their hands on cigarettes but it did not result in a concern for Singapore to ban cigarettes. Even increasing the legal age to purchase cigarettes, never deterred those who are already hooked on smoking.
Introduce mandatory caning + imprisonment for those that bring them to our shores. Online shop policing needs to step up. Introduce cameras into classrooms and corridors/stairs in schools. That means changing attire has to be done in toilets. Or create changing rooms like schools in Japan.
Also, offer rewards for tip offs. Encourage whistle blowing. Vaping is really really bad on a wider level. The fuel, the aerosols, the plastic, packaging, the reach it has onto kids...
let the government capitalized on it by endorsing 1 brand or type of vape, then ban the rest... before you scream "stoopid idea"... just look at cigarette history and how tobacco now can never be erased/banned... also, . e.g casino... lottery/sports betting..
Implement higher penalty as vape is harmful? Yet, dangerous driving, drunk driving has been a problem & taken many lives but penalty remain the same. Double standard?
👍🏻👍🏻 vape is basically containing more dangerous and harmful ingredients for long term our health, though level nicotine not as much as with tobacco,, so school mandatory put more strength within their regulation to banned students who bring or even consume vape and keep maintenance their students stress level or health amongst many school projects and activities

Just fine them $300 every time. If underage then parents will pay the fine. By then they will realize its too expensive to vape. Switch back to cigarettes.
