However getting to these places were not only difficult – but also almost impossible due to the myriads of restrictions imposed by timber company operating in the area. There is a joke around here that it even easier to enter Brunei or Indonesia than to this part of Sarawak! Visitors must obtained a special permit issued by the timber company or the authorities before allow entry. They really meant business and don’t discriminate as Datuk Billy Abit Joo – member of parliament for the areas found out.
The journey from Bintulu on the logging road took more than 11-hours of driving through some of the most treacherous, slippery, winding logging roads in Sarawak. I was part of a group of people carrying aids to Long Kajang, another Penan longhouse near Long Tanyit that was recently raze by fire. Long Kajang, was a small Penan settlement of roughly 200 people – slightly less populated than Long Tanyit – where we slept the night before.
They were in the mid of building new longhouse when we reached their longhouse and was warmly welcomed. The Feb. 23 meeting aimed to coordinate the language to be used in the draft regulation on tobacco products. The regulation is mandated in Article 116 of the 2009 Health Law passed in October last year. Article 202 of the same law stated the ministry had one year after its passage to issue the regulation.
There were officials from several ministries at the meeting, including the Ministry of Finance, Ministry of Manpower and Transmigration, Ministry of Agriculture, Ministry of Home Affairs,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],cheap marlboro cigarettes online, Ministry of Women’s Empowerment,cheap marlboro cigarettes online supplier, Ministry of Trade and Ministry of Industry. Budi Sampurno, head of legal affairs at the Ministry of Health, said the government had made the new tobacco regulation one of its priority goals for its first 100 days in office, and came to the meeting with a completed draft of the regulation.
Secondhand smoke can enter a smoke-free residence through shared air spaces, ventilation systems,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], windows, elevator shafts,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], hallways, holes in walls,wholesale marlboro red cigarettes supplier, and pipes and electrical outlets. Indeed, in older multi-unit buildings,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], about half to two-thirds of the air in a residence can infiltrate from neighboring apartments. In another HSPH study, published in the July 2010 issue of Pediatrics, researchers tested the effects of smoke-free air laws on children, comparing counties with bans to those without.
The good news was that among children who lived in homes where no one smoked, those who resided in locales where smoking was banned in public places had 39% lower levels of cotinine—a byproduct of tobacco that can be tested in blood—than their counterparts in places with no public bans. The bad news was that children who lived with smokers had no difference in cotinine levels,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], despite living in areas that banned public smoking.
The message: parents need to stop smoking to protect their children’s health, says Melanie Dove, the paper’s lead author, who received her doctorate in environmental health from HSPH in 2010. “Among children, the home is the primary source for secondary smoke exposure,” Dove explains. “Efforts to help parents either stop smoking, or stop smoking around their kids, would be really helpful.”
