Advocate’s Battle! Taiwan Vaping Bible Chronicles Eight Years of Legalization Efforts
Vaping, a harm reduction tool that has been gradually legalized and integrated into public health policies worldwide, remains a highly controversial issue in Taiwan. Taiwan Vaping Advocacy Bible: The Ministry of Health and Welfare’s Concealed History of Tobacco Harm Reduction comprehensively documents advocate Wang Yu-Yang’s eight-year struggle for vaping legalization. The book exposes how the Taiwanese government has ignored international scientific evidence in its policymaking and provides an in-depth analysis of how other countries successfully use harm reduction strategies to lower tobacco-related diseases and mortality rates.
Science vs. Policy: The Vaping Debate
This book not only details how vaping reduces 95% of smoking-related harm but also examines the latest findings from the World Health Organization (WHO) on tobacco harm reduction. It contrasts the policies of countries like the UK, the US, and New Zealand—which have successfully incorporated vaping into public health strategies—with Taiwan’s outright ban, highlighting the contradictions in its approach.
An Advocate’s Struggle
As Taiwan’s most prominent vaping advocate, Wang Yu-Yang recounts his journey from personal research and industry involvement to policy advocacy and international representation. The book also exposes the Taiwanese government’s lack of transparency in the legislative process, its disregard for public health experts’ recommendations, and its deliberate removal of “tobacco harm reduction” from WHO’s Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (FCTC).
Vaping Legalization: What Can Taiwan Learn from the World?
Currently, over 70 countries have legalized vaping and integrated it into their harm reduction policies. Sweden, for example, successfully became the world’s first smoke-free country through such strategies. Given these global trends, should Taiwan reconsider its current policies? The Vaping Bible presents extensive scientific data and international case studies, encouraging readers to examine the vaping debate from a more objective perspective.
