Reza Mahmud :
A study conducted by a US based research initiative revealed that Bangladesh is far below from standard practice of cigarette tax structures over protection of health and economics.
Tobacconomics, a US-based research initiative, published the study findings in its first edition of the International Cigarette Tax Scorecard, assessing the performance of cigarette tax policies in over 170 countries including Bangladesh.
Tobacconomics is based at the University of Illinois under Chicago s Institute for Health Research and Policy and it conducts economic research to inform and shape fiscal policies for health globally. According to the study, Bangladesh got an overall score of 2.38 out of 5 possible points, which is slightly higher than the global average (2.07), but there is abundant room to improve when compared to the top performing countries (4.63).
