Khairy: 'I'm sorry it's come to this.'

"There were enforcement issues before, but we regularly acted against vape sales – especially to minors – and vape products could not be advertised. It's now the Wild West in Malaysia as there is no enforcement because there are no laws against vapes," said the former health minister.
