I feel the root cause of smoking comes from your childhood. As a teenager, when you see someone smoking and experiencing pleasure, definitely a need or an urge to smoke arises. If this law is implemented, our youth will be saved. The ill effects of smoking will be made known to the general masses.
Hope people understand that smoking will kill you and those who are close to you.
