Article: “Government acts to curb younger smokers” (Pg A1 & A4)
Questions:
1)What are some measures by the government to curb smoking?

Some of the measures are to increase the fines for underage smoking , giving ban on the certain sales of tobacco and also barring some places from selling them , lower the rate of permitted nicotine and tar allowed in the cigarettes. These could further reduce the number of people smoking not just in the public places and also in smoking restricted areas . Fines imposed on such smokers thereafter will go up from $300 to $500.Cigarates will be sold only in packs of 20 instead of 10 ($8) to price them out of reach of buyers, especially young ones. A packet of 20 ciggarettes costs $11.60 on average.

2)How successful do you think these measures would be?Support your answer with reason
These could further reduce the number of people smoking not just in the public places and also in smoking restricted areas . Because of this some smokers will have to curb it as the sales of cigarettes have been lowered and now not any nearby minimarts as ban as the banning and barring of the cigarettes have led many smokers to have trouble purchasing it . These could further reduce the number of people smoking not just in the public places and also in smoking restricted areas . These could further reduce the number of people smoking not just in the public places and also in smoking restricted areas . However, I think that the measures to prevent smokers in Singapore will help to lessen down smokers in Singapore eventually. Regarding the limit of tar and nicotine in each ciggerette, it will stop people from buying too much cigarates.
