[jezchesters]

Hi to all you Malboro smokers out there!

Has anyone else noted the distinct lack of them in Bangkok over the last week? Does anyone know why?

Cheers!

I highly doubt it.

Indeed MB Menthol not available for a week now.

MB red is OK (Rama 3)

Maybe Santa and his Elves normally manufacture cancer sticks when they're not tied up with Christmas, thus the dearth...

I heard a rumour that Marlboro are made under licence in the Philippines, and the manufacturer was found to be, how can I say, hmm telling porkys when submitting his tax returns !!!!

Result, Phils Govt closed down that side of production !

as I say a rumour so please dont shoot the messenger !

there the worst smokes you can buy, 7/11 is doing you a favour

As there is something like 5,000 or so 7-11's in Bangkok (Their goal is never more then 300 meters from one), I doubt you have tried but a few. I know that the 3 within walking distance of my home (outside Sukhumvit) have had MB Lights all week. Have you tried a Family Store?

I do know that Marlboros were recently mentioned in an inquiry into the Custom Dept as to declared value versus actual value, but no action was taken that I have seen. Have not heard anything about problems at the Philippine end.
