Cambodian Government Announces Measures to Regulate E-Cigarettes
Cambodian Ministry of Education, Youth, and Sport drafts measure to prevent e-cigarette use and distribution, aiming to protect youth.

According to an announcement released by the CPP (Cambodian People's Party) on May 1st, the Ministry of Education, Youth, and Sport has instructed all relevant institutions to prepare a draft sub-decree on measures to prevent the use and distribution of e-cigarettes.

 

The proposal was put forward by the Minister of the department, Hang Chuon Naron, during a meeting held in Phnom Penh on April 30th.

 

The minister believes that the sub-law is an effective measure to address the youth e-cigarette issue. It will authorize schools to work with local authorities to prohibit the sale of e-cigarettes around schools throughout Cambodia. The minister also called on authorities to take timely action to crackdown on all forms of e-cigarette distribution and trafficking activities within Cambodia, particularly those conducted through online platforms.

 

The government of the Kingdom of Cambodia has issued guidelines categorizing e-cigarettes as a class of harmful drugs, prohibiting their importation, trafficking, and use.
