Bangkok: Although e-cigarettes are considered a prohibited item, and possession of them is considered an offense, their prevalence among children and young people continues to be high. Police are also intensifying their crackdown, with tens of thousands of items seized recently.

According to Thai News Agency, authorities are concerned about the increasing use of electronic cigarettes among minors, despite strict regulations. The ease of access and the appeal of e-cigarettes have contributed to their widespread use among young individuals.

Law enforcement agencies have ramped up efforts to curb this trend by conducting raids and seizing a substantial number of e-cigarettes. The recent operations have led to the confiscation of tens of thousands of these items, signaling a significant push to address the issue.

The ongoing efforts by police to tackle the illegal possession and distribution of e-cigarettes highlight the need for continued vigilance. Authorities are urging parents and educators to be aware of the risks associated with e-cigarettes and to engage in discussions with young people about their potential health implications.
