CAP urges ban on vape, syringe-shaped sweets to protect kids

The Consumers Association of Penang (CAP) has raised concerns over the increasing availability of vape and syringe-shaped sweets in the local market, warning that they could contribute to the normalisation of smoking habits among children.
Its education officer, NV Subbarow, said the trend is becoming increasingly alarming, as these products closely resemble real vape devices and syringes, making them highly appealing to children with their colourful and eye-catching designs.
