Smoking cigarette continuously has much impact

   Smoking cigarette continually can make the people feel some ill like cancer and coronary heart. As we know cancer is the most dangerous disease and Cancer is a class of diseases characterized by out of control cell growth. And one of the causes of cancer is smoking cigarette too long. Then heart disease is the leading cause of death in the world, and the leading cause of death among smokers.

    If we look at the fact, smoking cigarette has killed so many people in the world. Indonesia occupied in third position as one of the countries which people die because of smoking after India and China. Based on survey results of the Association of Public Health of Indonesia in 2007, as many as 1127 people die every day because of smoking. Of the total deaths, approximately 67 percent were male. And America occupied in fifth position as country which has lot of smokers after Rusia. As many as 443.000 people die every year because of smoking.

    In a day, how many packs of cigarettes sold out in the world and every second how many people die because of smoking. Everything was very ironic. There are no steps taken to reduce the number of smokers in the world. And the worse is there is no specific rule that prohibits children under age not to smoke. Because today, smoker also consist of children.

    I don't know yet, why do the people like smoking. As we know, smoking cigarette has so much impact but the people still smoke again and again. Maybe the government can take steps to reduce the number of smokers in the world. If we don't take that step, the number of death will be increase every time.
