According to a report by the Star Online, small ampoules of the stimulant are being sold for RM30 each on Malacca streets by itinerant peddlers from Thailand.
A young peddler from Songkla, Thailand, was seen offering vials to students as he made his rounds through the stalls and restaurants selling rattan and medical products.
The man, who identified himself as Ayob, said the stimulant was made from various herbs with minimal drugs and that it would trigger a sexual urge, and orgasm, in women when mixed into a drink.
The effects of the stimulant, he told The Star, would kick in almost immediately.
“Just add three or four drops (to a drink) and you will see the results in a few minutes… ‘they’ will be chasing you around.”
The ampoules are being trafficked from the Sungai Golok area on the Kelantan-Thailand border.
“The shallow water of the river (a result of the dry spell) has made it easy for smugglers,” he said.
According to Ayob, peddlers have been selling the stimulant here for the past two months, but not openly.
Ayob said the item was highly popular among tourists, many of whom from neighbouring countries had placed advance orders for the ampoules.
He said business in Malacca was better than in Kuala Lumpur and that the stimulant was popular with youngsters.
Mak Chee Kin, the chairman of the Malacca Action Group for Parents in Education (Magpie), said he was shocked and concerned about students misusing the cheaply bought liquid.
“Most sex stimulant drugs are substandard and might endanger users’ health,” The Star quoted him as saying.
Mak said that Magpie would campaign against the open sale of the stimulants to youngsters and students.
Malacca police chief Senior Deputy Commissioner Ramli Din urged those with information to contact the police. He promised to take action.
