Phillipines get's tough on tobacco smugglers.

[El Presidente]

Now that is a big stick 

"Under the proposed law or House Bill (HB) 3917, cigarette smuggling will be equated with economic sabotage and will be slapped with stiffer penalties, including making the illicit trade non-bailable.

Under the proposed bill, cigarette smugglers will also face a minimum of 30 years imprisonment but not exceeding 40 years with no bail recommended."

30 years? Why not make it life? I guess they think cigarette smugglers can be rehabilitated.

30 year sentences doesn't actually mean 30 years. The Govt awards prison term reductions every year on their Independence Day, or at the end of Ramadan. Even the biggest scum on the planet can be eligible if they can fake being a good boy in prison.

Nope, never been to jail. I don't even have any police records. I got rid of them when Sting went solo.
