Malaysian men still believe smoking means macho

If only rakyat know who is the man behind vape industry, then they will understand that government will not ban vape forever. Just like cigarette.

I used to vape, now I stop both vape and cigarette. Vapers and smokers both are brainless, but the real danger lies with vape. Kids can vape without detection as they have no distinctive smell like cigarette. And some brainless adult like to vape in a non smoking area too, because "its not smoke". I saw people vape in shopping mall toilet, cinema. If u walk around at GPO, u can always see some fcktard like to vape anywhere.

yeah very macho, age 40s already kukuchow artery got blocked

By your logic, you'll also need to avoid bakeries, candy shops, and ice cream parlors because they use the same food grade flavorings. Don't forget to stay clear of anyone wearing perfume or scented lotions as well 😂😂. Because these also contain same flavorings used for scents. Vapor from vaping is made using the exact same flavorings deemed safe and commonly used everywhere around you daily, you're already inhaling them, vape or not.

according to american lung association

The "e-juice" that fills e-cigarette cartridges usually contains nicotine (which is extracted from tobacco), propylene glycol, flavorings and other chemicals. Studies have found that even e-cigarettes claiming to be nicotine-free contain trace amounts of nicotine. Additionally, when the e-liquid heats up, more toxic chemicals are formed.

Because the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has not begun its review of any e-cigarette or its ingredients, nor has FDA issued any standards on the products, e-cigarette composition and effects vary. What researchers do know is that these toxic chemicals and metals have all been found in e-cigarettes:

Nicotine – a highly addictive substance that negatively affects adolescent brain development
Propylene glycol – a common additive in food; also used to make things like antifreeze, paint solvent, and artificial smoke in fog machines
Carcinogens- chemicals known to cause cancer, including acetaldehyde and formaldehyde
Acrolein – a herbicide primarily used to kill weeds, can cause irreversible lung damage
Diacetyl – a chemical linked to a lung disease called bronchiolitis obliterans aka "popcorn lung"
Diethylene glycol – a toxic chemical used in antifreeze that is linked to lung disease
Heavy metals such as nickel, tin, lead
Cadmium – a toxic metal found in traditional cigarettes that causes breathing problems and disease
Benzene – a volatile organic compound (VOC) found in car exhaust
Ultrafine particles that can be inhaled deep into the lungs

In Malaysia, E-cigarette or Vaping Product Use-Associated Lung Injury (EVALI) is a notifiable disease, and there have been reports of EVALI-related cases, including two cases in Labuan and Kuching among teens. A research study at the University of Malaya identified that the incidence of EVALI among severe acute respiratory infection (SARI) cases was 840 per 100,000. Another research study at Universiti Putra Malaysia investigated the potential link between vaping and spontaneous pneumothorax, highlighting the need for interventions and awareness campaigns.
Here's a more detailed breakdown:
EVALI as a Notifiable Disease:
In Malaysia, EVALI is now considered a notifiable disease, meaning that healthcare providers are required to report cases to the Ministry of Health.
Specific Cases:
Two EVALI-related cases have been reported, one in Labuan and another in Kuching, involving teenagers.
Research Findings:
A study conducted at the University of Malaya found an incidence of EVALI among SARI cases of 840 per 100,000.
Potential Link to Pneumothorax:
Research has explored the possibility of vaping being a precipitating factor in spontaneous pneumothorax, a condition where a lung collapses unexpectedly.
Increased Vaping Prevalence:
According to the National Health and Morbidity Survey (NHMS), e-cigarette and vape use among Malaysian teens increased from 9.8% in 2017 to 14.9% in 2022.

real cigarette is better

causing hurt to the lungs and eventually end life earlier.
some treasure some dont.
those who dont, actually regret it when it is their turn.
they dont actually want to die young.

i vote KJ just for him to implement GEG..

the glycerin vapor is the one causing lung congestion. I was once vaping as hobby. Since i wasnt smoker before i can feel it's affecting my breathing as i vaped for extended period of time. That's why i stopped.

PC building community also warn heavily against using vape to test airflow.

Also many vape user reported oil build up in their chassis.

Human one very special breed of creature damn good in tipu themselves to suit their agenda.

LOL many donkeys here wants vape to be banned but my question is, WHO APPROVED VAPE TO BE LEGAL IN THE FIRST PLACE? It was illegal in the first place. Slap that donkey first who approved it.

if vaping killed some persons and should be banned, then we should ban cigarette long time ago.

Yes, Gov also need to ensure safe and conducive online environment without any racing, bullying, and general stupidity.
All forum registrations must go though eKYC and an IC must be tied to each account.

People cannot be trusted to behave. Gov must oversee...

yes, but will take longer time compared to vape. more than 10 years can see effect for tobacco. vape as quick as 1 year.

but then people still sell and hisap one irregardless of what evidence shows but any shit happen will blame beksin or meds 1st
