1. Welcome to Thailand Vapers, an English language forum for members in Thailand and the rest of Asia to talk about vaping.
    Commonly referred to as e-cigarettes, vaping is really about the use of personal vaporizers (mods) and atomizers (tanks, clearos, RBAs, RDAs, RTAs) filled with e-liquid.
    Are you looking to get started or an old hand at vaping? Everyone is welcome here so sign up today and talk vaping with us!

    The raid in Banglamung that took place on Tuesday may have been the guy from Tukcom (Wut)... :(

    I really hope that isn't the case. I know you told me he was not selling there anymore to stay out of sight.

    Did anyone still order from him recently?

    As far as I know its illegal in Cambodia, Indonesia and Singapore. Not sure about the Philippines but I was there a year ago and it wasn't a problem. I was getting strange looks but I always get strange looks. I have been told that there are plenty of places that were selling vaping gear in Manila, but didn't visit any.

    It's legal in the Philippines AFAIK. As for Indonesia, there's a thriving vape community there but I don't know the actual legal status.

    I could be wrong about Indonesia, I had read on a site that it was banned (i think this one: Which Countries Have Banned E Cigarettes? - Vapors Digest )

    Although, I can only find reports of a proposed ban and not anything about it officially going through. There are posts on Reddit that say its illegal to bring them into the country, but not have them in your possession in country. Also according to a post on Quora, its not treated anywhere nearly as badly as illegal drugs and confiscation is the worse you would experience.
