sbst275 SG They've seen the downfall of higher taxes - The sickening smuggling of cig from Indonesia and Malaysia As for the no smoking zones, I suspect eventually only common area can smoke
sbst275 SG Simply why as I went around and check the designated smoking areas Some the coffee shop area so small, that inside the smoking zone, there's only 2 tables So end up, demand over supply, so ppl just smoke outside
dragg SG [quote]Originally posted by alexkusu: travel overseas often n buy duty free ciggy lor[/quote you cannot bring it in. smoke 200 duty free cigs overseas?
sbst275 SG No more The most you can bring in is 1 box of 20 sticks minus at least 1... Even so, you are likely to be taxed 39.5c per stick Before I forget bringing in any boxes that contains less than 20 per stick box you are asking for trouble
dragg SG it definitely affects business. most of the people who drink beers at coffeeshops are smokers.
sbst275 SG I dun smoke I do check all these duty rates at every year's budget As for the boxes size, it has been implemented since 2 years ago... Only 20's allowed, 6's, 7's, 10's, 12's, 14's all banned
sbst275 SG Now they control cig so tightly man These days been noticing those ang hun is getting popular
sbst275 SG For next yr, I dun see any much changes to the duties structure, already now cig is counted by per stick As long as the smuggling activities is still active, increase is likely to be not as great as in the past 4 years
