Japan Tobacco to Take Over JTI (Malaysia)
Volume 32 Strictly For Internal Use Only April 2014 ASEAN: Updates on OTP - Bans and Regulations While we have been focusing on cigarettes, but what about Other Tobacco Products (OTP)? Some examples of OTP are smokeless tobacco, roll-your-own and cigarillos. In the Philippines, the law requires health warning on OTP, which is considered similar to cigarettes; there is an advertising ban on OTP in mass media while advertising at POS is permitted. In Cambodia, OTP is covered under the Sub-Decree No. 35 on the Measures to Ban Advertising of Tobacco Products in 2011. In Thailand, the TC law states any tobacco product coming from Nicotiana Tabaccum needs to be treated as same as cigarette, and OTP is included. For Vietnam, OTP is banned as stated in Article 9, Vietnam Tobacco Law which strictly prohibited advertising and promotion of tobacco products. In Lao PDR, OTP is covered by TC law as same as all type of cigarettes but there is no tax charge for OTP. With strong regulation on cigarettes, people may switch to OTP. According to regulations on OTP, countries consider them as harmful products that need to be banned. However, information on OTP is still lacking and it could result in escaping enforcement. The MAC Network is not limited to cigarettes only but includes OTP. Please share more information on OTP on SIS MAC Network Facebook for effective counteraction against all tobacco products. Malaysia: Japan Tobacco to take over JTI (Malaysia) April 1, (Free Malaysia Today) JT International (Malaysia), which makes Camel and Salem cigarettes, has received a takeover offer of RM808.4 million from Japan Tobacco to buy the remaining 39.63% or 103.549 million shares.

Take a Stand Against Illegal Tobacco
Take a stand against Illegal Tobacco The current state of play Illegal tobacco sales in the UK continue to undermine legitimate business whilst providing criminals with huge profits. The continued availability of cheap illegal tobacco in communities across the country undermines attempts to prevent underage people accessing tobacco as illegal tobacco sellers do not care who they sell to. The smuggling of tobacco is a multibillion pound industry for criminals. The high level of tax in the UK, the large difference in the tax rates between the UK and other countries, and the openness of international borders creates the perfect environment for criminals to operate. Criminal organisations and opportunist smugglers are targeting the lucrative UK tobacco market. HM Revenue & Customs' 2012/13 estimates show that revenue theft could be as much as £2.9 billion.1 For a criminal, tobacco smuggling is relatively easy. Tobacco products come in small packages, are highly valuable and easy to transport; whilst the risks of detection, prosecution and conviction, though improving, are low relative to the huge profits. For example, a single container of illegal cigarettes can provide criminals with a profit of up to £2 million.2 It's clear more needs to be done! Did you know? HM Revenue & Customs estimates show that revenue A single container of illegal theft could be as cigarettes can provide criminals much as £2.9 billion1 with a profit of up to £2 million Illegal Tobacco Explained What is NUKDP? Non-UK duty paid (NUKDP) is a catch-all phrase used to describe cigarettes and roll your own tobacco (RYO) found in the UK that has not incurred UK taxes.

Tobacco Flavoring Fact Sheet 2020
Tobacco Flavoring THE HISTORY AND WHERE WE ARE NOW In 2009, the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act gave the U.S Food and Drug Administration the authority to regulate tobacco products, including cigarettes, cigarette tobacco, roll-your-own tobacco, and smokeless tobacco.1 The bill also banned the sale of flavored cigarettes, except for menthol. In 2016, the FDA extended its regulatory authority to all “tobacco products” including electronic cigarettes and other electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS), cigars, hookah, pipe tobacco, nicotine gels, dissolvables not already subject to regulation, and other products that might meet the definition of “tobacco product” in the future.1 FDA has only just begun to take steps to regulate these newer products -- over 15,000 different e-cigarette flavors currently exist in the marketplace leading to an epidemic of youth use, and relatively few studies have been conducted to investigate the safety and inhalation toxicity for flavored products.2 In January 2020, the FDA issued guidance that removed some flavored cartridge-based electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS) from the market. However, the policy failed to include menthol- or tobacco-flavored cartridge-based e-cigarettes, any flavored disposable e-cigarettes, and e-liquids used in refillable, open tank systems. Menthol is one of the most common flavor additives used in cigarettes and other tobacco products, accounting for 36% of the cigarette market in the U.S in 2018 and an increase in sales from 10.7% to 61.% among prefilled e-cigarette cartridges in 2020.3,4 A 2013 FDA analysis concluded that menthol cigarettes may increase youth initiation, and there has been great scientific debate on the role of menthol in nicotine dependence and cessation..5 The use of menthol cigarettes is particularly prevalent among youth adults and African Americans.

“Mevius Mode 6 100'S” and “Mevius Mode 3 100'S”
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Tokyo, April 21, 2015 Black Mevius Richer flavor through a lavish blend. Reduced smoke smell. “Mevius Mode 6 100’s” and “Mevius Mode 3 100’s” To be rolled out across Japan in early June, 2015 Japan Tobacco Inc. (JT) (TSE: 2914) has announced two new additions to the Mevius Mode series, which incorporates LSS* technology. “Mevius Mode 6 100’s” and “Mevius Mode 3 100’s” are to be rolled out across Japan in early June. A richer flavor through a lavish blend, and reduced smoke smell as well “Mevius Mode 6 100’s” and “Mevius Mode 3 100’s” The Mevius Mode Series products, which retain the smooth and clear flavor of Mevius and incorporate JT’s LSS technology, have been very well received by consumers. Now JT is launching “Mevius Mode 6 100’s” and “Mevius Mode 3 100’s”, in addition to the popular rich flavor “Mevius Mode One 100’s” launched in 2011. Thanks to a lavish blend, consumers can enjoy a richer flavor than that of the regular Mevius series. Employing the FSK size (approx.100 mm) instead of the FK one (approx. 85 mm) provides not just longer smoking experience, but also more satisfaction with each cigarette. In addition, the new products also incorporate LSS technology. The packages will feature the streamline motif of Mevius with vibrant blue and orange gradations on a black background. Furthermore, the sense of premium stylishness of the packages is enhanced by creating a special texture, which is achieved by ingenious use of gloss colors.

Tobacco, E-Cigarettes and Alternative Products
Tobacco, E-Cigarettes and Alternative Products: Product Guide FOR PEDIATRIC PROVIDERS Although youth use of traditional cigarettes has declined in New York City (NYC), youth have turned to other products, including cigars, smokeless tobacco, and electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes). These products are often flavored (such as with menthol) and almost always contain nicotine. Flavors are concerning because they can mask the harshness of tobacco, appeal to kids, and are often directly marketed to teens and preteens. NICOTINE can change the chemistry of the adolescent brain. It may affect learning ability and worsen memory and concentration. Youth are particularly vulnerable to nicotine dependence, which can occur even with occasional use. Nicotine may also affect the way the adolescent brain processes other drugs, like alcohol, cannabis and cocaine. The following is a list of selected products with their negative health effects to help you better counsel and guide your patients and their families. 2 TOBACCO: Smokeless Tobacco THE FACTS • Smokeless tobacco is not burned or smoked but always contains nicotine.* V It includes tobacco that can be sucked, chewed, spit or swallowed, depending on the product. PRODUCT NAME WHAT IT IS Chewing • Comes in loose leaf, plug or twist form Tobacco V Used by taking a piece and placing it between the cheek and gums; Also Known As may require spitting. Chew Snuff • Comes in moist, dry or packet (snus) form Also Known As V Moist snuff is used by taking a pinch and placing it between the lip Dip or cheek and gums; requires spitting. V Dry snuff is used by putting a pinch of powder in the mouth or by sniffing into the nose.

Challenges to Tackling Antimicrobial Resistance
Challenges to Tackling Antimicrobial Resistance Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a biological mechanism whereby a microorganism evolves over time to develop the ability to become resistant to antimicrobial therapies such as antibiotics. The drivers of and poten- tial solutions to AMR are complex, often spanning multiple sectors. The internationally recognized response to AMR advocates for a ‘One Health’ approach, which requires policies to be developed and implemented across human, animal, and environmental health. To date, misaligned economic incentives have slowed the development of novel antimicrobials and lim- ited efforts to reduce antimicrobial usage. However, the research which underpins the variety of policy options to tackle AMR is rapidly evolving across multiple disciplines such as human medicine, veterinary medicine, agricultural sciences, epidemiology, economics, sociology and psychology. By bringing together in one place the latest evidence and analysing the different facets of the complex problem of tackling AMR, this book offers an accessible summary for policy-makers, academics and students on the big questions around AMR policy. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.
