Following the reopening of the borders between Singapore and Johor, Singaporeans have been making their way to the vape stores in Johor, according to The Straits Times.
An ST reporter was visiting a vape shop in Johor and found some Singaporeans buying vapes on Good Friday.
In the city centre alone, Johor has at least 30 vape shops operating there, with Singaporeans patronising about half of them.
The prices of the vapes are about one-third of the price to get one illegally in Singapore, according to ST via Mothership.
Customers can expect to spend about RM300 during each visit to the shops.
Banned in Singapore
Vaporizers and e-cigarettes are banned in Singapore, with the act of buying, using and possessing a vaporizer in Singapore resulting in a fine of up to $2,000.
It is also illegal to import, distribute or sell imitation tobacco products, which include vaporizers, e-cigarettes and their accessories.
Persons found guilty of doing so face a jail term of up to 6 months and a fine of up to $10,000.
