Abstract

Tobacco control policies are analysed as information that gives a signal to the market, particularly those with close affiliations to the tobacco industry. The existence of the cigarette industry has increasingly become a dilemma. It is undeniable that the tobacco industry has consistently contributed a substantial portion to the Indonesian State Budget from year to year, around Rp 40 trillion for 2007, coupled with the absorption of a lot of labour. However, the fact that tobacco products are harmful and have a negative impact on health, being the cause of 5 million deaths per year, makes the world unable to turn a blind eye. Responding to the problem, the WHO in 1999initiated the Framework Convention of Tobacco Control (FCTC), which is an international agreement on the regulation and control of tobacco for its member countries. However, Indonesia is one of the largest cigarette producing and consuming countries in the world. The purpose in this study is to prove the theory of the semistrong efficient market where securities and prices reflect the relevant content of the information that is available.
