Introduction
Alcoholism and alcohol abuse has become a major problem in the world today. Not only is consumption of alcohol dangerous to the health of those who abuse it, it is also a danger to those around them because it leads to violent behaviour, damage of property and even death.
Because of this reason, the government of Jasminora has come up with laws and guidelines for the manufacture, consumption and use of alcohol while on the island. These laws apply to both people who reside on the island and visitors as well. Failure to comply to these laws is illegal.
Task
Laws on Alcohol production, purchase and consumption.
These are the laws pertaining to the use of alcohol for every individual inhabiting this island, both young and old. Failure to comply to these laws will result in penalties and possible jail time. These laws guide the importation, usage and production of alcohol and are to be followed strictly.
