SINGAPORE, Aug. 18 (Xinhua) -- Singapore is intensifying enforcement against vaping within its public transport network, with station staff conducting active patrols, the Land Transport Authority said on Monday.
Anyone caught vaping will be removed from the premises and reported to the authorities. For individuals found intoxicated, the police may also be called, the agency said in a Facebook post.
In a separate Monday post, transport operator SMRT urged the public to report vaping offenses to the authorities.
Vaping is illegal in Singapore, and offenders face fines of up to 2,000 Singapore dollars (approximately 1,559 U.S. dollars).
