Padojinog 10:23 PM, Jul 08, 2022 

Good day! 

I would like to request for information on the following for our economic research paper:

1. Employment data for Tobacco separated from Agriculture and Manufacture of Cigarette separated from Total Manufacturing 
2. GRPI data w/ Tobacco separated

Most of the existing information in PSA includes Beverages & Tobacco lumped together. However, for the purposes of our research paper, we wish to gather data specifically for Tobacco to study the impacts of the taxes imposed on the product. 

Thank you!
