Quit. Now!![]() ![]() www.stop-smoking-info-center.com
The only one participating from your addiction is the government ... Some facts about China: About 67% of men and 4% of women smoke. “Smoking contributes to four of the five leading causes of death in China today. Smoking will kill about a third of all young Chinese men (under 30 years) alive.” According to a survey of the World Health Organization 60% of Chinese adults did not know that smoking can cause lung cancer while 96% were unaware it can cause heart disease. China is the world's largest tobacco producer, accounting for about a quarter of the global tobacco leaf production and multinationals are fighting for their market share since the opening up of the Chinese economy. In 1993, WHO estimated that while China gained USD 5 bn in tobacco taxes, the country lost USD 7.8 bn in productivity and additional health care costs” Source: World Health Organization Additionally to mention in this context: China’s one-child policy, which was introduced in 1980 to control its massive population growth, led to the fact that most of the Chinese woman/parents decide to have an abortion when the child turns out to be female. So ... the Chinese population will be dominated by (smoking) men ...?! Worth to think about ... Comments♣metadajana♣ says:Ohhh ... nein ... Rauchen nicht gut. Nein,
