Reducing combustible tobacco products consumption to promote health equality in the Asia-Pacific

We are a group of public health experts and practitioners experienced in tobacco control.

This will significantly increase the chances of people who smoke to successfully quit and reduce the country's burden of disease and mortality contributed by the use of combustible tobacco products.
