Issue#6Health surcharge on cigarettes to be increased to NT$20



Some people who have a smoking habit don't agree with this policy . Recently, Government expanded the non-smoking areas in public spaces, so those hard smokers are not easy to find a place to smoke. Although this is a bad news to them, I'm glad to hear that news. Because my dad is a hard smoker, too, we all hope he can quit smoking. And this is a good chance to force him to do so. He wants to quit smoking but I think he has no patience to reach the goal. Each parcel of cigarette costs him NT$70, so he must do it now. I don't want to be a secondhand smoke victim anymore...
