Dark Clouds Hang Over E-Cigarettes?

The Health Ministry has recently urged the public to stop using e-cigarettes and vaping devices, until the findings of a study on the risks are announced in a few months. While health professionals remain divided over the risks of e-cigarettes, various agencies have argued for more regulation of the vape industry in Malaysia, which is said to be the second largest after the United States. BFM explores the benefits and the perils of vaping.

This is a report by Shawn Tanis.
