In its efforts to control tobacco use, Thailand has used taxation as a price measure and increased excise tax rates significantly over time. This report suggests that a mechanism to raise the price of cigarettes at a rate higher than the inflation along with appropriate taxation on other tobacco products will make the taxation system more effective for tobacco control.

Tobacco use is the single largest cause of preventable death globally, killing more than five million people each year. Tobacco use also creates considerable economic costs, from greater spending on health care to treat the diseases it brings on in users and those exposed to tobacco smoke to the lost productivity resulting from the premature deaths it causes. .../...
