The Hidden Story Behind Vape Bans Worldwide!

 Faced with numerous news attacks on e-cigarettes, it is said that e-cigarettes have been banned by many countries abroad. The banned countries and regions include Malaysia, Thailand, Australia, New Zealand, Brazil, and Argentina……。Recently, another Hong Kong region has been added. Can you see some clues?

Hong Kong: Actually, it was long agoThe sales and production of e-cigarettes in Hong Kong were banned in 2015. The Hong Kong Tobacco Company is a private company that monopolizes the Hong Kong tobacco industry. He Yingjie, how about he family?
 

Malaysia: A world of foreign cigarettes controlled by foreign companies. It was originally a British colony, and its cigarette production and market were controlled by three cigarette companies. Lefumen Company holds the market52% share, British American Tobacco's Malaysia Tobacco holds 25% and Reynolds holds 18%(The legalization of e-cigarettes is already in progress and requires taxation)。

Thailand:Currently, only one tobacco factory (in Bangkok) is under the jurisdiction of the Public Sales Bureau. The problem of cigarette smuggling is relatively serious and is mainly controlled by the military, so it is difficult to stop it. It is another country where the tobacco industry is not regulated by the government (it has already considered legalizing e-cigarettes and requires taxation).

Australia:Today, AustraliaSeven states and the federal government do not yet have a unified law governing cigarette sales and cigarette advertising. The traditional tobacco market is mainly dominated by three major tobacco companies including Lofman (British Tobacco Company), Philip Morris (American Tobacco Company) and W.D.B. O Wells (American Tobacco Company)。
 

New Zealand:In 2016, the New Zealand government collected a total of NZD 1.7 billion in consumption taxes from the three tobacco giants with the largest market share, BAT NZ, Imperial Tobacco and Philip Morris, accounting for 4% of New Zealand's total annual tax revenue. A country that relies heavily on tobacco taxes(Electronic cigarettes have been legalized).

Brazil:The world's major tobacco producing and exporting countries ranks fourth in tobacco production and second in tobacco export.In 1991, Sudan Tobacco, Brazil's last wholly owned tobacco company with a market share of 4%, was merged by Manchester Corporation of the United States. At this point, the Brazilian tobacco industry has fallen into the pockets of foreign investment.

Argentina:A country without a tobacco monopoly. Currently crying Argentines still point to seizing the name of the world's tobacco growing estate from Brazil to revitalize the economy and develop e-cigarettes? That's impossible. Hundreds of billions of foreign debt every year still needs to be repaid through exporting tobacco leaves.

Needless to say, the tobacco industry is highly profitable and profitable. Looking at the following data, everyone knows it.

 

Countries that ban sales are all those whose tobacco industry is not controlled by the government. Once international e-cigarette brands enter the domestic market and seriously impact the domestic tobacco industry, where will the missing tax revenue be filled?

Then people with brains can think about the following questions:

Why does the United States, which has the largest e-cigarette brands and the largest market share in the world, not ban electronic sales now? It is only prohibited from using by minors, and the standard is equivalent to traditional tobacco.21 years old. A sound supervision system has been established.

There is also the United Kingdom, which strongly supports e-cigarettes, and even includes e-cigarettes in the scope of medical insurance drugs. If e-cigarettes are so harmful, why does the British government dare to act like this?

Why do other countries that have not exceeded the deadline in the field of people's livelihood introduce a ban on the sale of e-cigarettes? This is precisely because these countries have made their own contributionsAt does not have enough control over the tobacco industry.

No one has a problem with money, and no government has a problem with taxes. For the government, tobacco tax is a purse. How to protect its own purse is worth thinking about when it comes to e-cigarettes.
 

Finally, we hope that all people in the media or colleagues in the press will use their brains more when writing the argument that e-cigarettes are harmful to health!
