SPF should first check ‘their kind ‘ first ,who also VAPE instate of catching other ppl!😆😆😆😆😆
just legalise lah. it’s still tobacco. i swear the pappies are in bed with cigarette corpos to whack their competition.
Majority caught must be foreign..or else the authorities will report “singaporeans”!
Whenever its foreigners they leave out the nationality…only rarely reveal.
Should check the 2 immigration crossings from Johor. I believe the main flow of vapers from these 2 points.
So many people are vaping in public nowadays but obviously the enforcements are little or nil
