Should smoking be
banned?
According to the
latest statistics, nearly half of Vietnamese grown-ups smoke cigarettes all the
time, and thousands of them die of smoking related diseases every year.
Smoking is the main
cause of lung cancer. It also causes stomach-ache, heart diseases and mental
troubles. Smoking does not only harm the smoker, it also endangers those who
inhale cigarette smoke. The children of parents who smoke a great deal may
become less intelligent and less healthy.
Because of its dangers,
our government has banned smoking in public places such as schools, theatres,
hospitals and public buildings.
High taxes are also levied on cigarettes. There
has been extensive propaganda against smoking in the mass media. Unfortunately,
the number of peole who are addicted to smoking has so far not decreased!
