Thailand's anti-smoking organization urges the government to legalize e-cigarettes: 7 years of ban, policy does not work
Blue Hole New Consumer Report, January 6 news, according to foreign news reports, the Thai Anti-Smoking Organization (ECST) hopes that the government will legalize e-cigarette products so that smokers can legally switch to less harmful nicotine products.
According to ECST, despite the seven-year ban on e-cigarettes, the number of e-cigarette users in Thailand is still increasing steadily. According to the National Bureau of Statistics, there are an estimated 78,742 e-cigarette users in the country, but ECST representative Maris Kranyawath believes that based on the number of people following social media pages selling e-cigarette products, this number is close to one million.
Maris Kranyawath said that the legalization of steam products will allow national agencies to set product standards. "Thailand has banned e-cigarettes for seven years, but despite this, the number of e-cigarette users continues to grow." Maris said. "This means that the policy has not worked. If e-cigarette products are legal, they can be inspected and standardized by national agencies."
In order to protect young people, ECST has proposed regulations prohibiting minors from buying and using e-cigarette products. "Sales staff must provide e-cigarette products suitable for each user." Maris said. "In addition, every e-cigarette user should first register an e-cigarette card at the regional office. When e-cigarette users purchase products, they must present the card. In addition, e-cigarette stores must have a machine to scan the card to recognize that the daily limit does not exceed 200 ml. E-liquid customers."
Thailand's promotion of e-cigarette product licensing is gaining momentum. Recently, the Minister of Digital Economy and Society Chaiwut Thanakamanusorn stated that he will explore ways to legalize e-cigarette sales, citing the relatively low health risks of e-cigarettes and the impact of black market sales on taxation.
