Personally I'm for the regulation.

We needa get stupid sketchy street side vendors off the streets; personal opinion. No one knows what kinda crap they put inside their juice. In the US, vendors take EXTREME pride in disclosing their ingredients and are very active on ensuring the integrity and safety of their juice. They also assign batch numbers to their juice for QA and account for bad batches or error.

The truth is, for vaping to even stand a chance, we need everything we can possibly get to "prove" it's better than smoking. Every one of these small safety regulations will help to make a difference.

Banning it on the other hand is plain stupid. I might be presumptuous to say this, but I firmly believe that a huge part of the ban in the red dot is for taxes, and it makes me sick in the stomach. Our government is supposed to make their decisions for the good of their people, not for money. In this case they've decided that tax money trumps public health.

Agreed on your views. Seriously hope they regulate instead of outright banning it. As of now the reasons for the bans are not very convincing imo.

On the personal side vaping had help me with my 10yrs+ smoking habits. Used to be burning 1 - 1.5 packs a day.
Now vaping 0 - 6mg. averagely comsumption is 2ml/day

Wah...only 2ml per day. Me heavy at at least 4-5ml. :p on top of that, I'm still an analog user at 6-8 a day due to non-vape friendly environment. :(

Seriously, regulating vaping supplies in this red dot is very difficult. They have no means of knowing what is in the liquid and some people might take advantage of it.

Not necessarily true. The same could be said about pretty much every consumables in the market right now: regulate the source in terms of registered and approved manufacturers and vendors. The exact same way we import milk or wine or any consumables. Impose ingredients declaration requirements and routine batch testing. Which would be perfect for out lazyazz regulatory agency, since one of the key components of the FDA regulations is ingredients declaration.

well being one of the most expensive cities to live in, where almost everything is taxed and has gone up, gst, erp, coe,hdb, tdsr, levies, minimum sum age 55,............ that 2% of taxes from cigarettes which is almost a billion dollars annually, will make the miw's have 2nd thoughts of lifting the ecig ban.
unless a special somebody from somewhere influence them to regulate ecigs..
