The Health Ministry says vaping will only be allowed by prescription, provided there is clear evidence that such e-cigarrettes can help chronic smokers kick the habit.

It says currently, stalking is NOT a crime here, which means there is little the authorities can do if someone were to repeatedly contact or follow the victims.

Because of this, it wants lawmakers to urgently pass the law to make stalking an offence in the Penal Code, and to introduce a restraining order against stalkers in the Criminal Procedure Code.
