KUALA LUMPUR: British American Tobacco (Malaysia) Bhd (BAT Malaysia), which has seen a stabilisation in its domestic sales volume in the first quarter of 2017, guided that the outlook for the year will be highly dependent on the effectiveness of the government’s initiatives to curb illegal trade.
Managing director Erik Stoel said it was encouraged by the government’s efforts to crack down on illicit cigarettes and its intention of not raising excise duty at the moment.
