Tobacco in the Philippines
DID YOU KNOW…
…that for more than 100 years starting the
18th century, the cultivation and sale of tobacco in the Philippine islands
was the exclusive prerogative of the Spanish colonial government?
.
…that in Luzon, the government restricted the
growing of tobacco to designated areas such as the Cagayan Valley and Nueva
Ecija?
.
…that in the spirit of liberalism, the
government abolished this monopolistic control in 1882?
.
…that after the lifting of the restrictions on
tobacco, private investors like the Compañia General de Tabacos de Filipinas
(or Tabacalera for short) assumed greater involvement in the business?
.
…that Tabacalera became one of the long-time
clients of El Banco Español Filipino, the first bank to be established in
the Philippines and Southeast Asia?
