Among young teens (aged 13 to 15), about one in five smokes worldwide.
Evidence shows that around 50% of those who start smoking in adolescent years go on to smoke for 15 to 20 years.
Peer-reviewed studies show tobacco advertisements heavily influences teenagers

Tobacco may be contributing to four of the five leading causes of death in Singapore

Nearly 18% of all the deaths in Singapore are attributed to smoking
About one in four underage youths still manage to sneak a puff at least once. This was the key result of the Singapore Youth Tobacco Survey 2000, the first survey of 13,111 Secondary 1 to 4 students to find out the prevalence of underage smoking.

Our group feels that smoking will affect not only the smokers but their friends too. We want to help these smokers and we need your suppose. Please support our petition. Thank You.

The worse part is someone who is walking in front of you and smoking. forcing u to inhale their smoke-second hand (esp. if there's wind blowing their smoke in your direction). I respect everyone's decision about what the choose to do- it's thier business. But i feel strongly about what goes in my body n would love to not get smoked on. Is that too much to ask?
