Eco-friendly cigarettes? That’s a laugh

Now here’s a case of the environment being used as a way to hide one’s shady dealings. After all, when something says “environmentally friendly,” people won’t dare question the veracity of that declaration, right? Singapore customs officials weren’t fooled, though. A Malaysian truck making its way into Singapore declared that its contents were disposable food containers, but it turns out that what it was carrying instead were “eco-friendly” cigarettes, the taxes of which haven’t actually been paid for. Tsk tsk.
