It played vigorous roles in TC law amendment, implementation, creating public opinion against tobacco farming, tobacco companies ill tactics exposing and other tobacco control activities including passing of TC Rules It was overseer for tobacco control in past years and also cared other tobacco control issue that is proven by recent increase of reports on tobacco control issues. PROGGA s media monitoring data from May 2014 April 2015 shows that there were 6150 pieces of tobacco related percent more comparing the last year (May 2013 April 2014). Media pieces on almost all tobacco control issues have increased substantially, and Tobacco Tax was the most highlighted one with pieces while it was 480 in 1293 last year referring the twice 1119 increase in current season. 794 Mass media was active too 915 over informing ban of smoking at public places and transports and the reports are growing, the number is 915 now which is slightly more than last year. Besides, 455 media pieces covered TI Interference, Accountability and CSR issue and it was 251 in last period. TC Law produces 368 pieces now and produced 387 in last year because the law was under revision then. However, it occupied a notable period now as TC Rules underwent bureaucratic complexities. Besides, Tobacco and Health, TAPS ban, Tobacco Farming and other issues have also been highlighted in the season. Significant qualitative changes occurred - 38 editorials published on in this season which was only 21 in the last. Sixty three (63) more TV reports were aired in this season. In controlling tobacco supply and demand effectively, media has been assisting the government and anti-tobacco activists productively. National Budget is ahead and tobacco companies are trying hard to reduce tax on tobacco products like the past years. They held secret meetings with the NBR, have deployed helpless workers to protest tobacco tax hike. For tax discount, they published misinformation on media. Such evil tactics should be stopped. Mass media can play an effective role in creating anti-tobacco awareness.

6 Smokeless tobacco sales boom after cigarette price spike May Doulot Akter Mala Smokeless tobacco items are emerging as 'silent killer' due to hike in cigarette prices with smokeless tobacco industries remaining out of the purview of the country's formal economy. The majority of smokeless tobacco industries remain out of the government's tax net as they run businesses in non-formal sector, an unregulated sector having no well-established industry. The government is increasing tax both on smoking and non-smoking tobacco products every year, but tax collection from chewing tobacco remains insignificant. In , the government received tax worth Tk 10 million from 'jarda' while Tk 5.0 million from 'gul'. There is 15 per cent Value Added Tax and 60 per cent Supplementary Duty on the products. With the gradual increase in taxes on cigarettes, many small and makeshift shops started selling chewing tobacco to the smokers who want to shift to smokeless tobacco. Although both smoking and smokeless tobacco are harmful to health, people of the least developed countries including Bangladesh and India are at high health risk of smokeless tobacco. Gul, jarda, sadapata and khainy are known as smokeless tobacco that largely consumed by the low income group of people. "We found it a substitute for cigarette as many smokers cannot afford cigarettes after price hike," said Abul Mollah, a makeshift shop owner in city's Purana Paltan area. He started selling gul and jarda along with cigarettes recently as the prices of cigarettes increased substantially ahead of the national budget. "Sales of gul and jarda have increased in recent times as many smokers, especially senior citizens, quit smoking cigarettes following its price escalation," he said. The smokeless tobacco has been produced informally mainly at households. "It is difficult to locate the chewing tobacco producing factories to net those for collection of taxes," said a senior tax official. The government's effort is going on to stop tobacco consumption through tax policy measures, but it is difficult for smokeless tobacco as it remains in informal sector, he added. On 29 April 2013, the Jatiya Sangsad passed the Tobacco Control Act (Amendment) Bill, incorporating smokeless tobacco under the definition of tobacco. Anti-tobacco activists and health experts said inclusion of smokeless tobacco in the definition of tobacco items will protect more than 13 million women from possible health hazards and aware them of its harmful effects. "Smokeless tobacco causes oral cancer, esophageal cancer, pancreatic cancer, increases blood pressure and heart rate and negative reproductive outcomes such as an increased risk of having a low birth weight infant," according to WHO. Dr Syed Mahuzul Huq, technical officer, tobacco control of World Health Organisation (WHO), said there is social denial on cigarettes as everyone recognises and is aware of health hazards which are absent in case of smokeless tobacco. "On a social occasion, people are still entertaining guests with that poison," he said. Mass awareness is needed to raise concern over the issue as it is consumed by both male and female, he added.

7 Tobacco farming poses threat to food security, public health in Bandarban May Dr Aynal Haque Tobacco cultivation has started posing a serious threat to the food security and public health besides the environment in Chittagong Hill Tracts including Bandarban. In addition to motivating the farmers openly by offering incentives in cash and kind to cultivate tobacco the tobacco companies are doing a brisk business in this regard, said Khiating Soye, chairman of Rajbila Union Parishad under Sadar Upazila of Bandarban district. The farmers get money by selling dried leaves and the company purchases leaves from them and adjust the loans that they provide. He was sharing views with a 22-member visiting team of senior journalists at Jamchhari village on Wednesday last. During the visit, the journalists' team found massive tobacco farming in Jamchhari, Ruma, Lama, Alikadam, Thanchi, Nikhyangchhari, Rowangchhari and Sadar upazilas in Bandarban. Tobacco is also largely produced at Kaptai, Barkal, Rajasthali, Baghaichhari, Jurachhari, Longudu and Bilaichhari areas in Rangamati and at Dighinala, Mainee valley, Panchhari and Ramgarh in hagrachhari, the UP chairman added. He said at least 60 to 70 thousand metric tonnes of firewood are being burnt in 2,000 tobacco processing kilns every year, causing depletion of reserve and natural forests, threatening environment and ecology in the hills, environmentalists said. Tobacco cultivation leaves a bad impact on the soil fertility and once tobacco is cultivated it s difficult to grow other crops on the same land. Besides, the maternal reproductive health and health of the children are under severe threat for tobacco cultivation in the district Quoting the sources of Department of Agriculture Extension (DAE), UP Chairman Soye said around 6500 farmers are involved with the tobacco farming in the CHT. Most of the farmers in the hilly districts have been losing their interests in cultivating indigenous crops like paddy, banana, maize, sesame, cotton, potato, pumpkin etc as they became defaulters of loans provided by tobacco companies, Nazrul Islam Titu, local correspondent of an electronic media, said. Farmers and labourers said staffs of tobacco companies offer lucrative amount of money as loans to trap them. Sometimes the companies provide them with bank loans for agriculture along with tobacco seeds, fertiliser, polythene bags and high-powered pesticides like Diaconal, fertilisers of BSP, BAP, FMC and SOB and DDT powder. Meanwhile, farmers, experts and local leaders admitted that deforestation has been taking place in the hilly areas as huge woods are being used to make fire for processing the tobacco leaves. "Tobacco cultivation has increased in the last couple of years. For tobacco processing, huge amount of woods are burnt causing deforestation," said Kamal Uddin, chairman of Bamo Bilchori Union Parishad in Lama upazila of the district. He said tobacco is cultivated on some 2,000-3,000 acres of land under his union every year and of the total inhabitants, over 80 percent are involved in cultivating tobacco. Kamal Uddin said: "When the tobacco is burnt, our kids cannot stay in classes due to illness." It has been alleged that a group of illegal traders are active in the region supplying firewood to the burners operated by tobacco traders, right under the nose of the forest department. "There is no DAE's farmers level cash and kinds incentives for tobacco cultivation in the CHT districts," said Abul Kalam Azad, Additional Director of Chittagong DAE Zone. Taking part in different working sessions titled 'Tobacco Control Workshop for Senior Journalists' held in Bandarban Hillside Resort from May 6 to 8, the visiting journalists took a unanimous decision that they will stand besides the organizations who are engaged in anti-tobacco campaign. PROGGA and Anti Tobacco Media Alliance (ATMA) organized the trip in association with Campaign for Tobacco-free Kids and Bloomberg Philanthropies.

15 17 April 2015 New law bans smoking even in private offices With the amended tobacco control law defining all indoor work places as 'public place', smoking is not possible even in private office buildings. Nurul Islam Hasib More than 45 percent people either smoke or chew tobacco in Bangladesh, making it one of the top five countries in tobacco consumption in the world. But tobacco industry lobbies are strong. Anti-tobacco activists say they delayed adoption of rules for implementing the 2013 amended law by nearly two years. The rules have finally been adopted on Mar 12 this year clearing the path for implementing the law that has broadened the definition of public places, increased penalties and introduced pictorial health warning in tobacco packages. It s a strong law no doubt, but the challenge lies in how it is implemented. Key role lies on the authorised officer, ABM Zubair, executive director of an anti-tobacco NGO PROGGA told bdnews24.com. Which is a public place? The law defined 24 types of places as public place and eight types of vehicles as public transport where smoking is completely banned. But in some places they can keep designated smoking zone, but that place must be outside the main working building and beyond the path of non-smokers. The zone (designated smoking zone) will be such a place from where smoke does not enter the non-smoking zone, Taifur Rahman, Bangladesh coordinator of the US-based Campaign for Tobacco Free Kids (CTFK), told bdnews24.com. The main spirit of the law is to protect non-smokers from second-hand smoking. Educational institutions, government offices, semi-government offices, non-government offices, indoor work places, office of autonomous bodies, libraries, elevators, hospitals and clinic building, court buildings, and restaurants covered by four walls have been defined as public places. Airport buildings, sea port buildings, river port buildings, railway station building, bus terminal building, cinema halls, exhibition halls, theatre halls, market buildings, and public toilets are also in the list. Children s parks, fairs, places where passengers queue up for availing public vehicles, or any other place accessible for collective use by people are also defined as public places. Besides, any other or all places declared by general or special order of the government or local government intuitions will be known as smoke-free places, according to the new law. It includes motor car, bus, train, tram, ship, launch, all kinds of mechanical public transports, aircrafts, or other transports notified by government official gazette will be defined as public vehicles where smoking is banned. Smokers in those places must pay Tk 300 as penalty, which will be doubled each time for repeat violations. Though the law kept smoking zone provision, it clearly mentioned some places where such zones cannot be allowed. Those are: educational institution, library,

They can also destroy or seize illegal tobacco products. hospital and clinic building, cinema hall, exhibition centre, theatre hall, restaurants covered by four walls, children s park, covered place for sports and physical training, and one-compartment public transport. Multi-compartment public transport like trains can keep a smoking zone, but it must be at the rear portion of the vehicle which is not used by passengers. Implementation This amended law has brightened the anti-tobacco image of Bangladesh as this has for the first time introduced the pictorial health warning. According to rules, tobacco companies must print those warnings by Mar 12 next year covering 50 percent of the package. Children, below 18 years of age, cannot buy or sell tobacco under the law that for the first time recognised smokeless tobacco like Zarda, which is culturally accepted but can cause cancer, as tobacco. The rules also empowered the authorities to prevent their staff or service seekers from smoking. Authorities must display the warning notice, remove all ashtrays, request the smoker not to smoke, expel them if needed, stop providing services, and finally can call in law enforcing agencies. They will be fined Tk 500 if they failed to prevent. The fine will be Tk 1000 for not displaying warning notice (abstain from smoking, it is a punishable offense) in their offices or buildings. Penalty will be doubled each time for repeat violations. Authorised Officer The law authorises some officials who can intercept, lodge complaint on behalf of a citizen, and call magistrates for realising fines. At Upazila level they would be the Upazila Nirbahi Officer or Upazila Health and Family Planning Officer or any equivalent or senior officer of Directorate General of Health Services or any officer authorised by the government. Besides, first class officers of the National Tobacco Control Cell, senior health education officer, officers authorised under Railways Act 1890, police officer not lower in rank than a Sub-Inspector (SI) and narcotics control department officials not less than assistant director are authorised this task. Sanitary inspectors, factory inspector, and first class officers of the fire brigade are also defined as authorised officers by this tobacco control law. These authorised officers will be able to enter and inspect any public place or transport as defined by the law and expel or remove any person violating the law. They can also destroy or seize illegal tobacco products. People must take their permission to lodge a complaint for, what the anti-tobacco activists say, preventing any intentional or unnecessary cases. This violation is a cognisable offence. So police can take into account this offence and arrest those violating the law and produce them in court, the CTFK coordinator Rahman said. Tobacco companies cannot use their name and logo anywhere as the law has banned all forms of tobacco advertising including at shops.

28 February Stop violation of tobacco control law Regional members of Anti Tobacco Media Alliance (ATMA) have expressed their grave concern over gross violation of tobacco control law in Rajshahi region and urged the authorities concerned to take punitive measures to resist the violation, reports BSS. They viewed the government has amended the law to make it more stringent because of growing tobacco use in the country. The main attraction of the landmark law is that it bans all sorts of tobacco advertisements at the point of sale and sponsorships of the industries. The law also bans the selling of cigarettes to those below 18. They were addressing the ATMA s Rajshahi regional meeting held at the conference room of Association for Community Development (ACD) in the city yesterday. Campaign for Tobacco Free Kids and Bloomberg Philanthropies supported the event. The anti-tobacco activists viewed the retailers and other vendors concerned should abide by the law of the tobacco control to protect the public health from bad effect of both smoke and smokeless tobacco products. Tobacco products advertisements through packet display at all selling points and unabated marketing of foreign branded cigarettes are taking place everywhere violating the law. They also mentioned that selling of tobacco products especially cigarettes to the schoolchildren and smoking in public places and transports are continuing. With ATMA member Alamgir Kabir Tota in the chair, journalists Sohel Mahbub, Ahsan Habib Apu, Ziaul Haque, Mobarak Ali, Akkash Ali, Paritosh Chowdhury Adittya, Sharif Suman, Dablu Kumar Ghosh and Ashraful Islam spoke on the occasion. ACD Project Coordinator Ehsanul Amin Emon moderated the discussion. They said the government should stop any kind of promotion for tobacco cultivation. It is more important to have policies or laws to reduce tobacco cultivation. At the same time, the government should undertake projects to develop alternative livelihoods for the tobacco farmers. They alleged that some of the tobacco companies are expanding their market promotional activities everywhere in the name of corporate social responsibilities, which must be resisted. In this context, the media men said the said some shops have well-designed display showcases with colourful lighting, which have been made for keeping cigarette packets. Some other shops are displaying cigarette packs at the showcases while some shops have kept their showcases empty. Cigarette consumption must be restricted to a greater extent for the sake of building a drug addiction-free society. Tobacco products advertisements through packet display at all selling points and unabated marketing of foreign branded cigarettes are taking place everywhere violating the law.

29 How profitable is Tobacco Farming? Tobacco grabs huge paddy lands in Lalmonirhat January Farmers farming tobacco on huge lands after getting lucrative offers from tobacco companies in Lalmonirhat. Photo: Star S Dilip Roy Huge paddy lands have been targeted for farming tobacco in Lalmonirhat for this season. Farmers are farming tobacco instead of paddy and other crops after getting seeds, fertilizers and interest loan facilities from the tobacco companies in the district. A good numbers of tobacco farmers from different villages have gathered together in Lalmonirhat town, and went out on the town roads demanding alternative crops instead of tobacco farming in order to save their land's fertility, their health and environment, and they also made strong protest against the tobacco companies as they (farmers) are always encouraged towards farming tobacco on their paddy lands. Agitated tobacco farmers also demonstrated for several hours over the same issue at the town's Mission Intersection. In the demonstration rally, tobacco farmers claimed that it is true that tobacco farming isn't profitable but farmers show their high interest due to easy marketing and attractive offers from tobacco companies. If farmers get facility for alternative farming besides tobacco, and tobacco companies stop their illegal practices to encourage farmers in the field level, the tobacco farming in this region might drop to at least 80 percent very soon. Officials in Agriculture Extension Department AED in Lalmonirhat said, a total of 23 thousand acres of land were cultivated for tobacco farming at five upazilas in Lalmonirhat in the last year, and the quantity of lands for tobacco farming has increased this year. The agriculture department always record only 35 to 40 percent of the total tobacco farming land in order to avoid high official's notice, said an AED official in Lalmonirhat who wishes to remain anonymous. Nesar Uddin, 58, a tobacco farmer from Mahendranagar village in Lalmonirhat sadar upazila said that tobacco farming is harmful for health, soil and environment. We understand the harmful effects of tobacco, but we are bound to farm it instead of other crops as there isn't any alternative farming other than tobacco, and the tobacco companies encourage us with different lucrative offers, he said. If I get an opportunity to farm alternate crops, then I won't ever farm tobacco again and I will also try to raise awareness against tobacco farming, he added. Nur Hossain, 52, a tobacco farmer from Sarpukur village of Aditmari upazila said, I earn Taka 24 to 30 thousand

30 from farming tobacco on one bigha (27 decimals) of land by spending Taka 8 to 10 thousand. But me and four other members of my family invest our labour daily for three months, he said adding that the earning actually comes from their hard labour. If our estimates are correct, then wages earned from tobacco farming doesn't make it really profitable, said tobacco grower Madhuram Das, 58, from Haziganj village of Aditmari upazila. If we invest the same kind of labour to farming paddy or other crops instead of tobacco, we will earn a lot better but we need that alternative option, he said. A local schoolteacher, also a farmer at Kakina village of Kaliganj upazila said that the tobacco companies are gradually occupying lands used for producing food grains and other crops by luring the farmers into more profit, and the companies are making profit for years through the government's subsidized fertilizers and irrigation facilities. Realizing the disastrous impacts of tobacco farming, we the farmers started growing other crops on our lands, he added. Eight bighas of my land have been losing their fertility as I have been farming tobacco on these for the last few years for the lucrative offers from tobacco companies. If I didn't get these lucrative offers, I would never be farming tobacco, said farmer Altaf Hossain, 46, from Bhadai village of Aditmari upazila. Jahedul Islam, 50, a tobacco farmer from Barabari village in Lalmonirhat sadar said that he doesn't get expected output of paddy and other crops from his five bighas of land because the soil is losing its fertility due to tobacco farming. Primarily we understand that tobacco farming gives us profit, but its harmful effects are permanent, he said praying to govt. to take proper steps against increasing tobacco farming. If the govt. doesn't take proper initiatives for stopping the increasing amount of tobacco farming and malpractices by tobacco companies immediately, it could lead to total domination of tobacco farming in this region, said tobacco farmer Aminur Rahman, 42, from Mahishkhocha village of Aditmari upazila. Paresh Chandra Barmon, 55, a farmer from Sarpukur village of Aditmari upazila, said that tobacco farming has increased dramatically in the district because of the interventions by tobacco companies. We are always encouraged towards tobacco farming with the incentive of getting attractive offers from the tobacco companies, he said. Safayet Hossain, Deputy Director DD in Agriculture Extension Department in Lalmonirhat, said that it isn't possible to decrease tobacco farming without offering alternative crops. Farmers now understand the harmful effects of tobacco farming, and this awareness can decrease tobacco farming. Eight bighas of my land have been losing their fertility as I have been farming tobacco on these for the last few years for the lucrative offers from tobacco companies. If I didn't get these lucrative offers, I would never be farming tobacco
