A Step Today

After 4 months of efforts and hard works,
Finally we've taken our very first step in pursuit of a 100% tobacco-free environment in USM:

"2009 Green Lung Awareness Campaign"

Venue: Convocation Exhibition Site, Eureka, USM
Date: 11th - 16th August 2009
Time: 9am - 5pm

We are to tell the whole USM that our campus is an absolute smoke-free zone. No exception.

Our official kick-start of Green Lung's Project.

Officiated by Vice Chancellor of USM, Prof. Tan Sri Dato' Dzulkifli Abd Razak















Former director of National Poison Centre, Prof Rahmat signed a petition against tobacco
(p/s: Green Lung Project is under the guidance of Clearinghouse for Tobacco Control (C-TOB), National Poison Centre aka PRN)














Prof. Rahmat struck on the "Gong of Death" - one death every 6 seconds due to smoking in the world. (p/s: We strike every 10 minutes, meaning to say that there are 100 people died because of smoking every 10 minutes...Sad)
