similar problem to Dihan Muhamad, as both were
addicted smokers while they were still in diapers.
Now, Muhamad is being praised for cutting the
number of cigs he smokes a day to five.


A 6-year-old Indonesian boy addicted to smoking
is being praised by his parents for cutting down
to five cigarettes a day.
Dihan Muhamad — who has been smoking since
he was a toddler — has scaled back his daily
nicotine intake from two packs, as Indonesian
activists ramp up a campaign to put out the
widespread problem amongst the country’s
children, the Global Post reported.

"He was sick, he was coughing a lot, and the
doctor said he had to quit," Dihan's mother
Sulawati told the news site. "He's been trying
hard, and now he just smokes five a day."
The child chain-smoker from Cicapar was
featured in an August 2014 photo of TIME
magazine, which highlighted the alarming
smoking rate in Indonesia, where some children
take their first puffs at age 4 and cigarette
advertisements are plastered everywhere.

The child smoking rate in Indonesia is incredibly
high, with children taking their first puffs around
the age of four in some instances.


About 240,000 people in the country died in 2013
because of tobacco, National Commission on
Tobacco Control Commissioner Hakim Sorimuda
Pohan told reporters last week, calling the
problem a national emergency.
"That number is more dramatic than narcotics,"
Pohan said.
