Example of tobacco industry interference: The Letter of the ITIC to SEATCA through Dr. Gary Johns

The Southeast Asia Tobacco Control Alliance (SEATCA) received a letter from Dr. Gary Johns, on behalf of his client the International Tax and Investment Center (ITIC) on April 21, 2016. The letter is riddled with false accusations against SEATCA, mischaracterizations of fact and law, disparaging comments about the World Health Organization (WHO) and the FCTC Convention Secretariat (FCS) and the Parties to the FCTC. This is considered to be another attempt of the tobacco industry to intimidate and discredit an advocacy organization.
