Malaysia: Health Ministry looking at cutting nicotine in cigarettes by half

　　The Health Ministry is looking at reducing the nicotine content in cigarettes by half to curb the smoking addiction.

　　"Currently, the nicotine content in a stick of cigarette is 20mg. We hope that by reducing the amount, we can at least help smokers take care of their health and control their addiction," its minister Datuk Seri Liow Tiong Lai said.

　　Liow said no target had been fixed as the plan was still in discussion but hoped that it could be cut down by 10mg.

　　He said the smoking cessation programme introduced in health clinics had been very successful.

　　"The success rate in stopping smoking increased from 60% to 80%. We want to move this programme to the community level next.

　　"However, smokers have to know that the habit can only be kicked through their own willpower.

　　"Otherwise, there is no use in joining the programme at all," he said after joining Felda Lurah Bilut settlers in a 10,000-steps-a-day programme here.
