VIVAnews - Coordinator of the Indonesian smoking issues agency LM3, Fuad Baradja, said the country is ranked three concerning smoking addiction in the world.
"Indonesia is below China and India," said Fuad on Monday, Dec 21.
He said that it is an odd fact since Indonesia is not the top three countries in the globe having the largest population.
The population in Indonesia is lesser than it is in the United States but there are more smokers in the archipelago compared to the US.
Globally, six millions of world population deceased in 2008 due to smoking. By 2030, the number will multiply to 10 millions. "70 percent of deaths from smoking take place in developing countries," he said.
