A display of tobacco products is seen at a supermarket in Vietnam. Under the draft amendments, the ministry proposes a comprehensive ban on the production, trading, storage, transport, advertising, promotion, sponsorship, harboring and use of e-cigarettes, heated tobacco products, and new tobacco products. It also proposes banning the display of tobacco products in any form at wholesale and retail outlets. Nguyen Trong Khoa, deputy director of the ministry's Medical Services Administration, said current law does not prohibit the display of tobacco products. The ministry proposes that tobacco sales licences include conditions requiring separate storage cabinets not mixed with other goods.
