Cambodia looks to graphic warnings
Jan 5, 2009—Graphic warning labels will be included on cigarette packs sold in Cambodia starting from next month if the government approves a plan by the Ministry of Health, according to a report in The Phnom Penh Post quoting a government health official.
At present, some cigarette packs sold in Cambodia do not carry warnings of any kind.
If approved, the new warning labels will become part of a wider government program to limit tobacco use, which recently included the introduction of a ban on smoking in government health clinics in Kâmpôt.
