According to an assessment by the Southeast Asia Tobacco Control Alliance (SEATCA), five countries in Southeast Asia, namely Brunei, Cambodia, Laos, Singapore, and Thailand, have implemented a ban on the sale and use of e-cigarettes and e-cigarette liquids.


The anti-smoking group also pointed out that there are currently no regulations in place in Myanmar and Vietnam prohibiting e-cigarettes and e-cigarette liquids.
