I hope one day they increase cigarettes price till RM10 or beyond.<br /><br />Gov can't ban cigarettes not because politicians smoke too, rather because cigarettes contribute to our economy. Imagine how many billions we might lost a year if cigarettes are banned.<br /><br />By increasing price, not only we reduce the number of smokers, our economy also benefit from it. 2-pronged attack. :)apamisehttp://apamise.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8341107200883178928.post-24676390010427468692010-01-01T17:10:49.238+08:002010-01-01T17:10:49.238+08:00Well, nice insight there!

I would advise people not to smoke as it's not environmental friendly and it cost alot to print those "Do Not Smoke" sign and anti smoking campaign.
