No longer available in USA?[edit]

Does anyone know why these cigarettes are no longer available in US markets? I assume that Altria's control of the company has something to do with it.

earlier unsigned comment[edit]

Does anyone know what Altria's plans are for the company and it's cloves?

Hey there, Who wrote this article? "...fatally-strategic..." is gramatically wrong. Furthermore why is Altria's purchase of Sampoerna bad? It basically bought a fat cash cow in Sampoerna who already has major market share in Indonesia, a nation which boasts 90% smoking rate among its men. True Marlboro doesn't sell well in Indonesia..but that's why Altria's buying a Kretek brand!

Don't mark it as an ad without pointing to something specific[edit]

the only thing close may be that "it's smoked by millions of Indonesians." If you think it's an ad, specify what you find offensive. There's nothing more annoying than claiming something is a problem without proposing a solution (or even identifying the problem).

234 Dji Sam Soe[edit]

Im not in Indonesia at the moment, but 234 doesnt have 16 in a pack. I think its about 12.

But they've released heaps of new ones lately, and they've released ones with filters too.

But yeah Sampoerna is by far the most popular kretek style cigarette there. (all above unsigned comment)

Why is there an image of Unilever on this page?[edit]

It doesn't seem like Unilever owns this brand — Preceding unsigned comment added by 172.81.154.100 (talk) 06:03, 15 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
