Syamsuir, residents Downstream Dam, Central Jakarta, now can not talk anymore. The reason, he had cancer of the vocal cords. Why? Not because he was a heavy smoker for 30 years. One day three packs of cigarettes he sulut.
Syamsuir worked as a repairman hours. Modest income. So, for the smoking habit he barely spends most of his income. The result? Now there is a hole in his neck of the former operation has ever lived. And the more he regret: his voice disappeared.
Syamsuir is one of the millions of victims of smoking. In Indonesia, 70 percent of the 60 million smokers are those who come from middle to lower economic groups. That is, already poor, are still caught smoking habits that drain the contents of the bag.
Not to mention the approximately 65.6 million women and 43 million children in Indonesia who are exposed to cigarette smoke. They are also vulnerable to passive smoking and various diseases affected by smoking, ie, bronchitis, lung, colon cancer, liver cancer, stroke, and various other diseases.
Each year about 200,000 deaths in Indonesia due to smoking. A total of 25 000 victims were passive smokers. It is a direct result of smoking will not appear immediately. The impact of new look after 25 years since someone first smoke.
Demographic Institute senior researcher Faculty of Economics, University of Indonesia, Sri Moertiningsih Adioetomo, once declared, a study found that the cost of inpatient smoking-related disease sufferers reached Rp 2.9 trillion per year.
Indonesia was great in terms of cigarette consumption. Imagine, now Indonesia occupied the third position in the world after China and India for the affairs of cigarette consumption. Government of Indonesia's lack of political will to deal with tobacco issues seriously.
Just imagine, Road Map for Cigarette Industry precisely target the addition of cigarette consumption. In 2005, cigarette consumption in Indonesia reached 220 billion cigarettes. On the Road Map for Cigarette Industry in 2015 targeted cigarette consumption increased to 260 billion sticks.
Target 10 years increased by 40 billion cigarettes. A total of 40 billion cigarettes consumed 10 million smokers. That is, within 10 years 10 million new smokers are recruited. It could be said in one year targeted one million new smokers, or 249 new smokers per day, said Setyo Budiantoro of Tobacco Control Support Center Public Health Association of Indonesia (TCSC-IAKMI).
Who are the new smokers? Of course the teens. No wonder tobacco industry did not hesitate to throw big money for advertising expenditure. Good advertising on television and on billboards streets. Ranging from teenage music concerts to sporting events.
Images on packs of cigarettes
Retaliate against the tobacco industry to advertise the dangers of smoking clearly impossible. If you want to save the nation, especially the younger generation, the most reasonable and most likely do is to control the tobacco industry and apply the rules contained in the Framework Convention on Tobacco Control.
One way is to put up pictures of diseases caused by smoking on cigarette packs. Not just a small warning smokers and almost negligible because there is no deterrent effect.
Pictorial warning or warnings with graphic images on cigarette packs fairly effective. Effective because it reaches all the layers, there is a repetitive effect as it would be 5800-7000 times per year by smokers who smoked a pack a day.
In addition, the government also does not need to pay, the picture was clear, strong, and large, more than a million warnings in words, words Widyastuti Soerojo of TCSC-IAKMI.
Warning the pictures shown to be effective in some countries, like Canada as much as 44 percent of smokers want to quit, 58 percent of smokers start thinking about the dangers of cigarette consumption, 35 percent of smokers increased knowledge of the dangers of cigarettes, and 17 percent of smokers hide the wrapper because it does not want others to see the image commemoration.
In Singapore, 47 percent of smokers to smoke less, 57 percent of smokers start thinking about health impacts, 71 percent of smokers increased their knowledge, 25 percent of smokers motivated to quit, 28 percent of smokers reduce the number of cigarettes smoked, 14 percent of smokers do not smoke in front of children children, 12 percent of smokers do not smoke in front of pregnant women, and 8 percent of smokers to reduce smoking when at home.
In Thailand, 92 percent of smokers want to quit smoking, 62 percent of smokers to reduce smoking, 20 percent of smokers try to quit smoking, and 25 percent of smokers continue to smoke the same amount.
In Brazil, 54 percent of smokers to change attitudes about the effects of smoking after seeing the pictures on cigarette packs and 67 percent of smokers want to quit smoking. Greater impact on low income groups and education.
Disturbingly, Indonesia's cigarette production is exported to foreign countries, like Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia, and Brunei, has plastered images of diseases caused by smoking. However, the same cigarette circulating in Indonesia without plastered pictures of diseases caused by smoking.
That could mean, the tobacco industry to the government obey the neighboring country. If so, why not apply the same rules for packs of cigarettes that circulate in Indonesia? There is no reason not to implement the provisions of international operators.
At first it's hard, but the Hong Kong government finally succeeded in implementing international rules, said Dr. Homer of Tobacco Control Legislation in Hong Kong.
Reflecting the experience of neighboring countries, the Government of Indonesia it was time to start repaying implement international rules on control of tobacco. At least, by putting warnings on cigarette packs with pictures.
