The first sentence of this section makes no sense as written:"Despite South Africa having one of the toughest anti-tobacco laws in Africa, the company failed to comply with the law, pushing on in both government fronts and covert advertising and promotions."I'm not familiar with SA's anti-tobacco laws but if they are indeed super-tough, it would make more sense to replace "Despite" with "Due to". On the other hand, if SA's anti-tobacco laws are weak, a more coherent sentence would replace "toughest" with "weakest", thus: Despite South Africa having one of the weakest anti-tobacco laws in Africa, the company failed to comply with the law, pushing on in both government fronts and covert advertising and promotions.It would also be useful to expand/explain what is meant by "...pushing on in both government fronts and covert advertising and promotions." Examples would help.Namlit67 (talk)09:08, 17 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Namlit67

I skimmed the source and apparently SA does have the toughest tobacco laws in Africa. So maybe the quirk in the sentence is in the"failed to comply" part:

"Despite South Africa having one of the toughest anti-tobacco laws in Africa, the companymanaged to circumvent the law, pushing on in both government fronts and covert advertising and promotions."
