House to remove vape products in sin tax bill after Duterte orders banMANILA, Philippines — The House of Representatives will remove vaping products or electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes) from the bill imposing increased tax rates on liquor and heated Exclude 'heated tobacco' from taxes. Hmmmmm... so this means by banning vape, it will make iQos profitable when it is officially launched in the country next year. NEWS FLASH: iQos uses 'electronics' to heat the tobacco, shouldn't it be included in the ban? This is a mistake that shows lack of foresight. If the vape ban will be done by executive action, what's to stop the next president from rolling it back?

Duterte requests judiciary not to oppose vaping banPresident Rodrigo Duterte on Tuesday asks the judiciary to follow his verbal order to ban the use and importation of vapes. Ayaaaan! Magkakaalaman na if we have a truly independent judiciary. 🤭 Ako lang ba o nakakakabang malaman ang sagot? 😳 Wow, ang galing...parang hari kung mag utos. Verbal lang talaga ha? Talaga bang tuluyan na tayong naging banana republic? Grabe, baboy na baboy na ang rule of law sa Pilipinas...and his minions and blind followers could never care less😞. If Chief Justice Diosdado Peralta doesn’t say anything to counter this statement, then it will instantly prove that he’s truly not the leader of the Judiciary that the Filipino people deserves, that we no longer have an independent & separate Judiciary and that we’re all damned.
