Tobacco Advocate by Prof Rahmat

Management of Tobacco Use and Dependence by

Nice setting and environment

After 12 hours, getting into Day 2: Screening Practices

The participants were exposed to various screening counters using marketplace method. All of us were taught the correct technique to use peak flow meter, CO tester, conduct Fagestrom Test, and learn the principle of SidePak.

Hopefully...We could help more people to lead a healthy life with our equipped knowledge...

Peak flow meter. Blow, Forrest, blow.

CO tester to see CO concentration in your
bloodstream. Higher CO level indicates that you inhale
more smoke

SidePak. Help inspect the indoor
air quality

En. Salehin explained us how to use SidePak.

Highlight of the day: Adventure begins.

Each group would go around USM campus to approach smokers...

Action 1: Provide them advice and info and encourage them to quit smoking.

Action 2: Distribute out our leaflets to them. Let them know the help available including quit smoking clinics and smoking cessation hotline.

Action 3: Collect cigarettes from them to show that they are READY to quit smoking.

Greenlungers talking to a senior at medan selera

Some interesting dialogues quoted from the public:

• "I know smoking harms. But now I'm okay. I'll stop only when my body is not okay."
• "Secondhand smoke is harmful, I know. That's why I choose to harm others rather than my own children."
• "Uncle, can you donate a cigarette to us to show your determination to quit smoking?" "You ask my tauke first."

Scene behind

Approaching the public

Wow, face-to-face interview huh?

"Hello sir, may I..."

The cigarette we had collected with hope that they could really quit one day.

Wow, fantastic!

Another highlight of the day: FUN RUN
