Rise seen in ‘risky’ youth behaviours

Bangkok Post

February 25, 2026

Thai youth are increasingly falling prey to risky behaviours, with e-cigarette use soaring and online gambling reaching troubling levels, according to the Thai Health Promotion Foundation (ThaiHealth).

- POST REPORTERS

Children and teenagers are being aggressively targeted by marketing for e-cigarettes and online betting platforms, said Paranee Phuprasert, ThaiHealth’s assistant manager.

Speaking recently, she cited findings from the 2025 Thai Health Report compiled jointly with a team from Mahidol University.

The report shows that youth e-cigarette use surged tenfold in just one year — from 24,050 users in 2021 to 269,533 in 2022 — reflecting the rapid spread of vaping products among young people.
