      Vaping is common is other countries but hope Singapore will continue to be stringent, especially in tertiary institutions.

      Vaping can become an addiction and long term, it can cause a host of health problems to the students
      School toilets , may not be easy to catch unless teacher went in n smell it immediately or reported by peers .
      even some pri students get hold of it , maybe took/steal from home (parents or relatives).
      when my boy was in Jc already had such vaping thing (2yrs+ago)

        sounds low.... but my relatives i heard ,can get into unisim , suss with poly dip. And i think maybe depends on the courses applied.
        SUSS, SIT, SUTD are considered local govt uni too
        During our era was like 15% or 20% of the poly cohort could get into Uni? Now the ratio has increased to like 33%? SIT and SUTD were created to cater for a higher demand of Poly students wanting to move on to do a technical-related degree locally.

        Wikipedia claims that 8% poly dip students went NUS/NTU/SMU full time studies? I suspect the rest of the Poly students probably went to SUSS, SIT and SUTD.

          Suss will need A or a local diploma as min to get into a Bachelor degree. Must get it elsewhere first.

            local diploma not difficult to get one, no need to get else where

                  Luckily you all brought up this vaping issue. Didn't know that we already have it here in schools :faint:

                    yah lor, scent /taste variety ( prob got coffee or tea flavour too for adults) ,no need lighter, light to carry
                    young may see this as fashion, 😓 difficult to control when they are overseas as their peers carry this like chewing
                    gums..
                    sg police must be strict on vaping !

                      Police can't be everywhere, though. And since these vapes look so innocuous, it will be hard for them to spot without being very invasive (then people will complain that they are violating human rights). We can start with our own kids and immediate social circle and spread the word about how harmful they are. Maybe we should find some of those horrific photos to show what happens inside your lungs - must scare people before they start because it doesn't work as well once they have started.
