Kpod substance etomidate to be listed in Misuse of Drugs Act from Sep 1: Ong Ye Kung

[bombshell]

After 1st Sep, vaping become Shanmugam's problem and not OYK's problem liao right?
Always found it odd that the health minister is dealing with a drug problem instead of MHA.

It's the possible/extend of repercussion if caught flouting the law.

Not as simple to reclassify drugs / change the Law. A need to draft up SOPs... Working instructions.. procedures... and vetted sent for approval..

Upon detection, who to refer to..who to take charge.. quality.. quantity etc etc.. nitty drifty details! Many many different agencies and even court procedures are involved ! Also DRC IMH must be ready ! Not as Simple

talk easier !

From Sep 1, etomidate - the anaesthetic agent that has been found in vapes - will be listed as a Class C drug under the Misuse of Drugs Act, Health Minister Ong Ye Kung said on Sunday (Aug 24).

The move makes it illegal to traffic, manufacture, import, export, possess or consume the substance without authorisation. Mr Ong added that more details will be shared at a press conference on Aug 28.

Precisely

Y no canning in the 1st place as s
Good as consuming drugs no

Moreover, I read kpods mostly imported from malaysia

Perhaps death penalty will deter trafficking

Just saying only
