Are you ready to die to enrich a Tobacco Fat-Cat?
LUDICIA’s @ludiciaofficial just released “Apocalypse” music video is an admirable piece of filmmaking and performance, in fact, it’s epic. We intended to write a full glowing review, but then we saw the closing credits on the video…
Unfortunately, the video was financed by a tobacco conglomerate.
Tobacco companies in Indonesia skirt regulations and use alternative/punk music related social media to groom youth into becoming future addicts of their products. Tobacco advertising and sponsorship have long been outlawed in every civilised country, but strangely it’s not in Indonesia.
A staggering 290,000 deaths are attributed to tobacco use every year in Indonesia. That death toll is the same as if the NANGGALA-402 disaster happened 15 times EVERY day.
Young Indonesians are smoking more than ever with nearly 20% of Indonesian junior high school students (aged 13 to 15 years) smoking while being encouraged by music-related advertising and billboards.
Smoke if you enjoy it, it’s your choice, but guys it certainly doesn’t make you cool!
Smoking increases your risk of premature death. It would be kind of stupid to sacrifice your own life just because some tobacco company fat-cat tells you it’s the rock’n’roll way!
OK, moving on…
