Vaping in Johor

Nov 29, The Sultan of Johor ordered a ban on vaping in the state and giving owners of vape outlets a month's deadline to close down. For me, it was such a great news to hear that since the smoke a bad for others even the smell has a nice flavour. haha >o<  

There was a group, Malaysia E-Vaporizer and Tobacco Alternative Association (Mevta), who wants to clear the misconceptions about e-cigarettes or vaping before imposing a ban. Also, they said, 

"We are proud of our multi-ethnic association that spans across all ethinicities in Malaysia and they has always respected the laws of this country, whether at state or Federal level, and is always open for all forms of cooperation, dialogue, and consultation with authoritative bodies be it with Istana, Federal or State governments. "

 I don't know why they state that they respected the law even vaping is not in the regulation. It just that Sultan Johor cared about his citizens and I don't see any wrong with banned vaping in line with that reason.

On December, 2, Sultan Johor already announce the banned on vaping in Johor. Are they know about the effect on vaping even good or bad side? because I think that it still similar with cigarettes, the using of chemical and the difference is the smell. In addition, the vaping smoke is thicker than standard cigarettes. So I think that was a good decision to banned the vaping, but why don't he also banned cigarettes? I was hoping that there will be a state that will banned both vaping and cigarettes.
