“Agents from the Counter-Counterfeit Committee of Cambodia (CCCC) have impounded nearly five tonnes of e-cigarettes, shishas and other smoking equipment this year and are preparing to destroy them. The report listed confiscated equipment, including “46,352 smoking machines, 10 boxes of repair tools, 525 battery units, 15,831 bottles of vape oil and many other tools.” It added that e-cigarettes had been widely publicised on social media where they were disingenuously claimed to be a tool to quit smoking cigarettes. It warned that the number of e-cigarettes users was increasing and illicit sales of the products were widespread. “Shisha and e-cigarettes are a new type of drug that poses a risk to Cambodian youths in the present and the future. Young people could be affected to abandon their studies or work and cause other worrisome social problems,” it said.”
