When i was in Indonesia i noticed that virtually everyone smoked. And it was not like in Canada with pictures of rotten teeth stained from tobacco smoke on the packs, photos of blackened lungs on the packs, monkey see monkey do picture of mom smoking with kid on the packs, diseased hearts on the packs (yes, these are on our smoke packs in Canada), there was no ingredients on the packs there either.. showing tar and nicotine levels.
And i remember speaking to a young man about smoking.. after noticing he had chain smoked about twenty cigarettes while sitting in the train station in Jogjakarta i asked him: Why do you smoke so much? He answered: "Smoking... *dramatic pause* ...is my inspiration."
