This project is located on Highway 41, near Surat Thani International Airport and Amphoe Mueang. In addition, it is in the middle of routes between major tourist destinations such as Koh Samui, Phuket, and Phangnga. Moreover, the area is the connecting point to Nakhon Si Thammarat province and Hat Yai in Songkhla province. In the foreseeable future, TPARK plans to expand to the Northern region as well.

COVER STORY Surat Thani province, frequently referred to as Surat, is a province in the Southern region of Thailand. The economy is flourishing due to a rapid increase in population in recent years, resulting in a sharp rise in demand for consumer goods in the province. In addition, Surat Thani sits in the centre of the southern provinces, which makes it ideal for logistics and the distribution of goods to connecting provinces and throughout the region. Several consumer product companies and retailers have expressed their interest in investing in this province. The industrial sector is also expanding, particularly the rubber, wood processing, and frozen food industries.

Mr. Takashi Fuse Advisor TICON Logistics Park Co., Ltd. A survey by Japan s Ministry of Health, Labour, and Welfare indicated that the percentage of male smokers of 20 years of age and higher continued to decrease from the peak of 83.7% in 1966 to 32.7% in 2012, (while that of female smokers was 10.4%). So, what about trends in other countries? Although the data is a bit old, OECD Health Data of 2010 showed that, among 34 of its member countries, Korea had the highest percentage with over 40.8% of male smokers, followed by Turkey at 39.0%, Estonia at 36.8%, and Chile at 30.0%. The OECD member country that had the lowest percentage of male smokers is Sweden at 12.8%, followed by Iceland at 14.5%, Australia at 16.4%, the USA at 16.7% and Canada at 19.0%. China s percentage is likely to have been higher, but the data is not available since that country is not a member of OECD. 6 The percentage of 32.7% of Japanese male smokers means that one out of three Japanese males is a smoker which can be considered high among developed countries. Although smoking is prohibited in many buildings and places in Japan, there remain many outdoor smoking areas. In addition, restaurants would be concerned about a reduction in diners if smoking were to be prohibited, and therefore some of them have set up a separate zone for smoking diners. As such, it s no surprise to see Japanese people smoking wherever they can. When I joined one of the major Japanese trading firms in 1964, people were allowed to smoke freely inside the office, which is different from nowadays where there are serious anti-smoking campaigns and many doctors voicing concerns about health-related dangers from smoking. I was a smoker for over 50 years. I smoked [Peace] brand TPARK NEWSLETTER October-December 2013 only which contains 10 times more tar and nicotine than other brands. But, one day two years ago, my doctor warned me that I would have serious health problems if I continued to smoke and I immediately quit smoking that day. There are many people who decide to quit smoking, try but fail and return to smoking again (I used to be one of them). This is because the cigarette is one of the most powerful addictive substances and it seems virtually impossible to gradually decrease the number of cigarettes day by day and ultimately make it zero. If you decide to quit smoking, you should do it immediately and completely. The decreasing smoking population should surely impact cigarette production. Japan Tobacco (JT) is the sole producer of cigarettes and other tobacco products In Japan. It is curious, however, that there is no data about the concrete decline of cigarette production. Even its annual report does not show this

kind of statistic. The company may not want to disclose such information to the public. However, the company s collapsing performance has been clearly indicated as they have announced they will close four of their ten factories by the end of the fiscal year 2015 and that they will decrease the number of employees by 1,600 through voluntary early retirement. As you all may be well aware, Thailand is very strict on smoking and it is prohibited in public spaces or restaurants, where there are gatherings of people. In addition, disgusting pictures of lung cancer and other sicknesses from smoking are shown on cigarette packets. There are no cigarette vending machines and cigarettes are hidden from public view in all stores. One can only buy cigarettes by asking the cashier for the brand they want. There is a fine of 2,000 Baht for smoking in prohibited areas and for cigarette littering on the footpath. An acquaintance of mine (not me, of course) was caught by the police and was fined 2,000 Baht for dropping a cigarette butt on a pavement in the Sukhumvit area. Although never having actually seen it myself, I have heard that cigarettes or smoking scenes in movies and soap operas are blurred or mosaic-ed out on Thai TV. Strict compliance with smoking regulations is applied even to foreign tourists as one can carry only one carton of cigarettes into Thailand. People may think that two or more cartons of cigarettes can be brought into Thailand if they pay the tax, but the issue does not lie in tax paying. Bringing two or more cartons Thailand is very strict on smoking and it is prohibited in public spaces or restaurants, where there are gatherings of people. In addition, disgusting pictures of lung cancer and other sicknesses from smoking are shown on cigarette packets. There are no cigarette vending machines and cigarettes are hidden from public view in all stores. Japan Corner 日本コーナー of cigarettes into Thailand is regarded as unlawful. I have heard that bins are available before customs in the arrivals area of the airport for dumping excessive cartons if you have imported more than one, but I have not witnessed any such bins. If memory serves me right, the Minister of Public Health and Social Welfare in the cabinet of Mr. Chuan Leekpai (Khun Ying Sudarat) determined a stringent smoking policy for Thailand, with the aim of reducing health-related risks from smoking. The policy has been carried out strictly for 20 years. What then is the percentage of Thai smokers? I have tried to find information from various sources, but was unable to find enough reliable information. The number made available by the Ministry of Public Health and Social Welfare was between 15% and 20%, so I feel the percentage is around 17%-18%, which is as low as that of the USA and Canada. Obviously, it is much lower than Japan. It is certain that female smokers are rare in Thailand and male smokers are a lot fewer compared to Japan. I asked my Thai colleagues why the percentage of Thai smokers is so low and they gave me different opinions. Judging from what I heard from them, the reasons can be summarized into the following three points. First, smoking and drinking alcohol are not regarded as good behavior, and shunned as others have less respect for smokers and drinkers. This idea may come from Buddhism. Second, cigarettes are expensive for low income earners and buying a packet of cigarettes is a heavy burden for them. Therefore, they buy only a few loose cigarettes for their daily ration. Third, those who are surveyed about smoking might lie in their survey and tend to answer no to the question as smoking and drinking are disapproved of. When we talked about this, I was asked Why do so many Japanese people smoke? In my opinion, the price of cigarettes in Japan is cheap when compared to Japanese people s incomes. In Thailand, a packet of cigarettes costs around 80-90 Baht. If a Thai person smokes a packet a day, it costs about 2,500 Baht a month, which would be quite a burden for low income earners. On the other hand, there are a lot of cigarette brands in Japan and a packet of cigarettes costs 440Yen (about 150 Baht) or 13,000 Yen (about 4,300 Baht) a month, which is considered inexpensive when compared to incomes. My British colleague said that a packet of cigarettes in London is priced at around 8 Pounds (about 400 Baht or 1,200 Yen). He said that although the number of smokers went down considerably after a price hike, the percentage of working-class smokers does not show such a decrease. In Japan, the number of smokers will certainly decrease if, as seen in England, the cigarette price goes up to the level of 1,000 Yen (330 Baht). However, JT, Japan s sole cigarette producer, is under the control of the Japanese government and does not have a free hand to change the price. Though JT wants to raise the price in order to improve their financial position, the government may not easily approve it because a higher price would result in fewer smokers and consequently less tax revenue.
