REGA ROKOK NAIK RM0.70... TERTINGGI DLM SEJARAH

Wow, harga rokok dijangka akan naik sehingga 70sen sekotak untuk paket 20 batang. Kenaikan ini jika menjadi kenyataan akan menjadi kenaikan harga tertinggi dalam sejarah.


Sebagai bekas perokok tegar, saya seru rakan-rakan agar meninggalkan rokok kerana kesannya kepada kesihatan dan ekonomi keluarga.

Harga rokok semakin tinggi, permintaan juga kekal tinggi (walaupun dijangka turun 10%), siapa yang untung?

Saya petik:

[TS] PETALING JAYA: Cigarette prices are expected to go up tomorrow by 70 sen for a pack of 20 sticks.

According to a report by a Chinese daily, most 20-stick packs, which is currently sold at RM9.30, will cost RM10.

Quoting sources, the daily reported that the 70 sen increase is one of the highest in recent history, with previous hikes being between 10 and 30 sen.

Packs of high-grade cigarettes are expected to cost as much as RM14.

A source predicted that the price hike would cause cigarette sales to drop by 10%.
