Cigarette Smoking In Indonesia

Banning cigarettes, in many countries, has been a controversial topic. However, it is important to note that many Canadians believe that smoking should be made illegal in Canada. According to Health Canada, cigarette smoke kills over 37,000 Canadians each year, which is more than the number of all murders, alcohol-related deaths, car accidents and suicides. The inquiry has also shown that, in 2002, about 17% of deaths were due to smoking (20% in males and 12% in females). Smoking cigarettes is detrimental in various ways. For example, cigarette smoking increases an individual’s probability of developing lung cancer, which can also lead to other fatal illnesses. Cigarettes are a waste of

This means that the information, which is from cigarettes advertisement, could lead to many side effects to people that are linked to health problems. According to Data 2, which is the bans on advertising, promotion and sponsorship data from the WHO report, it is clearly seen that controlling the policies on cigarette advertisement has been used by many countries around the world. There have shown that 101 countries, which are high-income, middle-income and low-income countries, take most actions on the TV, radio and print media (WHO Report on the Global Tobacco Epidemic, 2011). What is more, according to the Data 6 of comparing the countries that ban all kind of the cigarettes advertisements and those that are not which is taken from the Worldbank on public health, it is noticeable that the country which take the banning action could decrease much more amount of tobacco consumption than those which are not such as the downward trend of cigarette consumption from over 1700 in 1981 to under 1500 per capita in 1991 (Measures To Reduce The Demand For Tobacco, 2011). By looking at these data, it is obvious that banning the cigarettes advertisement is an effective way that can help reducing the cigarettes

With more people switching over to Vaping the environment has become cleaner. The smell of Cigarette butts can cause the air around to become Polluted with unhealthy and unsafe toxins for children of young ages. If a child where to breath in the toxins of tobacco it can cause major health problems because their body is not strong enough to fight off such strong toxins. Smoking is a main reason many smokers are obtaining lung cancer from being a smoker for multiple years(Conserve energy). Smoking has carcinogenic particles which is radiation that comes from the cigaret and promotes lung cancer. Second hand smoking causes the same health problems as first hand smokers. The fumes that come off the cigarette are still toxins that

is leading the sales of e-cigarette, Malaysia’s market is touted as the second largest worth about $125 million. A Google search of “vaping Malaysia” reaches almost a million due to websites dedicated to the sale of vape devices and e-liquids. Malaysia government’s endeavor to choose a side between the two growing tension’s public health camps. One is the new rising chain-industries serving at least half a million of Malaysia’s smokers. This number represents about 200 vaping-related businesses at a sale rate up to RM2 billion. Most small sized businesses could face obsolescence if a national ban is implemented. On top of this, some e-cigarette users became incensed at what they viewed as yet further infringement of their liberty. Another is admits pressure from Muslim leaders, bans on e-cigarette have already been announced in several states. Worse in Negeri Sembilan, vaping is declared as “haram”, or forbidden, in Islam. Hitherto, Malaysia’s Ministry of Health says it has no plan still to ban the sale of vape, merely regulate it.

Do you know what a cigarette consists of? When a cigarette is burned, they create more than 7,000 chemicals (“Smoking Facts”). At least 69 of these 7,000 chemicals are known to cause cancer. Acetone, ammonia, lead, methanol, nicotine, tar, pesticides, termite poison, and toxic gases are just a few of the chemicals.

It has been proven that smoking tobacco is bad for general health but vaping on the other hand is much safer compared to traditional tobacco smoking because there is no burning involved in the production of the vapour. Thus, there is no presence of tar or carbon monoxide which have been some of the main substances present in tobacco smoke that are known to lead to various diseases. Also, e-cigarettes pose less very little, if any, health threats to secondary smokers. Most second-hand smoke that comes from cigarettes is produced via sidestream smoke that comes from the burning tip of the cigarette. E-cigarettes do not generate sidestream aerosol and as such, it is what is exhaled by the user

In countries where the income are higher the consumption of tobacco is also high about “73%” whereas in comparison to countries in “middle and lower income” there is only “40%” mortality

In Canada, the average cigarette consumption among daily smokers had dropped from 15 cigarettes per day (GPD) in 2012 to 13.9 GPD in 2013. From 1999 to 2013, cigarette consumption has declined significantly, by more than 3 cigarettes per day. And the yearly consumption during this time period kept decreasing by 1.3% averagely (Propel, 2015). According to the statistics conducted in 2013, “average daily cigarette consumption was 15.2 for male smokers and 12.5 for female smokers, which was a statistically significant difference” (Propel, 2015, p18). Between 2012 and 2013 consumption declined greatly among males but not females. Furthermore, as Li, Robson, Ashbury, Hatcher and Bryant stated that smoking has been widely reported to be more prevalent in the lower socio-economic classes and among Canadian-born people as compared to Canadian immigrants (2009). Additionally, although tobacco is considered as an inferior good whose elasticity is low, smokers are becoming increasingly price-sensitive as there are more and more new cigarette products that have been introduced into the market, thus consumers may seek ways to purchase less expensive cigarettes, particularly as tobacco taxes increase the overall price of cigarettes.

Tobacco cigarettes have many harmful carcinogens while e-cigarettes have little to none. “Constituents of cigarette smoke that harm health -- including carcinogens -- are either absent in e-cigarette vapour or, if present, they are mostly at levels much below 5% of smoking doses (mostly below 1% and far below safety limits for occupational exposure).” (Galloway). As a result, e-cigarettes produce less carcinogens than tobacco cigarettes and are less harmful than tobacco cigarettes and as a result of this reduce the risk of cancer in smokers. E-cigarettes also only produce aldehydes, an organic compound formed by the oxidation of alcohols, under certain conditions while tobacco cigarettes produce aldehydes when one is lit. “Under certain conditions, e-cigarettes may release high levels of aldehydes, aldehydes including Formaldehyde’(Methanol)`are released in tobaccos and contribute to its toxicity. Formaldehyde may be released when the e-liquid is overheated, when the e-liquid is low or the power setting of the e-cigarette is too high. Vapers call this a `dry puff’ that poses no danger to vapers because it is aversive. Normal vaping generates negligible aldehyde levels.” (Galloway). Consequently, e-cigarettes produce less harmful chemicals than a tobacco cigarette and as a result are less likely to lead to deadly diseases

As serious of smoking side effects getting popular, lots of people were concerned about their health. On the other hand, the promotion of the tobacco companies getting incredibly flexible to younger targets to hold the users longer period to use their tobaccos. In 1990’s Camel was sold to and also targeted to children, which is hiding the unethical problem behind familiar promotions through various medium. After seven years, the attractive appearance of cig box to children criticized by people, so it disappeared due to changed expectation of societies. However, cigarette companies did not stop to selling them to young people because one of the strategies of business to enhance their income was targeting children. The younger starts to smoke

According to the existing statistics, the greatest proportion of the world’s population does not smoke tobacco. As noted in the United States of America, only one out of four adults smoke. In Kenya, it is estimated that one of every five teenagers smoke. It has also been established that that most people start smoking at the age between 12 and 14, in addition to the fact that 1,200 tobacco smokers die every from smoking (Eaton, 2003). This translates to about 1,4389,00 deaths every year. This is a great number of preventable deaths every year. Despite being of great economic importance, tobacco has brought about much more harm than good. In fact, those who smoke have their life span shortened by about approximately. However, the government must ban tobacco smoking in order to prevent smokers from lethal diseases, protect nonsmokers as well as saving the environment.

Attention-getter: How many of you been around people who are smoking in public places? Probably, most of us have at least noticed people smoking in CMU campus even it is a non-smoking campus. Secondhand smoke is really harmful to anyone who inhales it in. As smokefree.gov stated, the smoke “contains over 7,000 harmful chemicals, at least 250 of which are known to damage… [ones] health.” Also, the secondhand smoke “can… stay in the air for several hours after somebody smokes.” Therefore, it is harmful to secondhand smoke.

I think smoking should be banned from public places because not only does it affect the smoker but it also affect anyone that is close by if a child lives in a home with a smoker it can cause the child to develop asthma, lung disease, heart disease, etc. Smoking should be banned in public places for many reason many people do not like the smell of smoke nor want the smell of the smoke to get into their clothes. Smoking also affects the environment. For an example if someone is outside smoking outside near a restaurant and a family wants to sit outside and eat it can affect the family that is eating also if they have kids with them. Usually people look for places where no smokers are so thats why smoking should be banned from all public places.

Smoking has become a social habit nowadays. When people around are smoking, the person practically feel like he/she should be doing the same. And this is increasing day by day in our country. Smoking tribulates almost every organ of the body. It is the leading cause of more than 443,00 deaths each year. Secondly smoking approximately result in 3,000 lung cancer deaths of non-smokers which is given off by the end of the burning cigarette and by the smokers exhalation.

Smoking has been a long time habit round the world. However, in the past, smoking cigarette was very popular and known to be a cool recreational drug, and was widely accepted by the community across the world. Today smoking has been less widely accepted and more restricted because of the many health risks that are linked to smoking cigarette. These days, people are well educated and more knowledgeable about the health risks of smoking. Therefore, smoking popularity has been in sharp a decline in the past decade. Smoking cigarette is more than just an addiction; it is one of highest cause of death in the world than any other causes.
