I think sushiman was referring to the Japanese gov't previously owning Japan Tobacco.
I smoke Japanese cigarettes here because they are cheaper than cigarettes at the exchange, about $2.00 a pack vice $3.25. Exchange smokes are nontaxable, but they've jacked up the price so they can say they're not promoting smoking. Nice windfall for MWR.
