Between 2004 and last year, Malaysian government reported to have spent RM8 million on Tak Nak Merokok – a nationwide anti smoking campaign. Started during Tun Abdullah Badawi premiership,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], it is a high-powered anti-smoking campaigning aimed at reducing the number of smokers in the country. It achieves dismal successes by any measure.
In rural Sarawak smoking is still prevalent partly due to culture and easy accessibility to tobacco. Smuggled,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], cheap fags can be found everywhere. Among the Penan, kid as young as 5-year old already puffing cigarette and homegrown and made roll-your-own tobacco like an adult. It really taken me by surprised in places like Long Tanyit and Kajang – among the remotest Penan longhouses – in Belaga district.
Before anyone in the room could stop them, eight Amti members began performing a drama about Roro Mendut — a beautiful, sensual woman from Javanese folklore who sold cigarettes she had already lit in order to pay taxes to a local ruler who was trying to woo her. “They dressed in traditional Javanese clothes; they even had a drum for music,” Lisda told the Jakarta Globe last month.
One performer,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], who was playing Roro Mendut, then handed tobacco plants to the government officials, saying they were meant to symbolize the alliance putting its fate in their hands. After the performance ended, the uninvited pro-tobacco group shouted: “Long live the farmers!” Agung Suryanto,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Amti’s deputy secretary general, said the performers interrupted the meeting only to deliver a message from the people. But Lisda believed otherwise.
“I think it was like a threat to the government from the group,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],” she said. “They were not even invited to the meeting, and yet they were given the first chance to speak even before all the government officials.” To be sure, the trend has sparked dissent. After all, smoking is legal for adults, and nicotine is known to be one of the hardest addictions to kick. Why should poor people be asked to give up smoking at home when rich people have the right to indulge this harmful vice?
Is the intrusive government “nanny state,” as libertarians dub it, discriminating against those who are least powerful? A new wave of published papers from the Harvard School of Public Health (HSPH) and elsewhere sheds light on why smoking should be banned in public housing, and how the policy question should be considered.
An HSPH study in the December 2009 issue of the journal Tobacco Control,2011 USA version marlboro cigarettes with stamps,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], for example,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], documents how cigarette fumes can infiltrate the homes of nonsmokers in low-income housing. When nonsmoking residents reported the frequent odor of tobacco smoke from other apartments or hallways, tests in their homes subsequently turned up elevated nicotine concentrations, according to one of the study’s authors, Jack Spengler, Akira Yamaguchi Professor of Environmental Health and Human Habitation in the Department of Environmental Health.
