How Effective Will New Tobacco Regulations Be?

The government has introduced a two-phase plan for implementation that includes immediate enforcement alongside an educational campaign. Roslizawati Mohd Ali, Executive Board Member, Malaysian Council of Tobacco Control shares her insights on the effectiveness of these new regulations.
