Online-Kommentar zu: "Discovery Of Extensive Use Of Illicit Alcohol" at Medical News Today, 20.11.08
The International Center for Alcohol Policies (ICAP)is the Institute of the big Alcohol Industry. It is obvious that this study tries to ward off the responsibility for the alcohol related harm resulting from its products. It is clear, if accurate figures are available they should be included in statistics. But African and other countries should be warned to cooperate with the western alcohol industry in order to replace the native alcohol by western brands. In a number of Sub-Saharan countries the drinks industry has usurped a governmental role by designing national alcohol policies. Its motive is clearly to safeguard its own vested interests – by directing the development of alcohol policies!
