¡@¡@Because
the Consumer's Foundation has been an advocate of the consumer
protection for so long, it naturally is very concerned about the
widespread use of tobacco. During the international forum that
was held for the 25th anniversary, it invited the consumer protection
experts from Taiwan, Japan, Korea, Singapore, Vietnam, Hong Kong,
and Macau to research and discuss the warning label on the cigarette
packaging. According to the Consumer's Foundation, a tobacco-free
environment starts with the warning label!
