The Samahang Magtatabako sa Pilipinas (SMP) had warned of an imminent collapse of the tobacco industry this crop year if the flue curing barns utilized to cure their tobacco produce are not repaired on time. They charged the government of "apathy" to their plight.

Mrs. Arroyo made the pledge during a brief media conference at the Laoag International Airport early morning yesterday. 


She said this will be the first time this will happen since 1991 when the law mandating the revenue-sharing took effect.
