CBS News Cameras Capture Indonesian Tot Puffing Away; Parents Tell Us He's in Anti-Smoking Program

Aldi, chain-smoking Indonesian two-year-old
Remember the recent, disturbing video of a two-year-old Indonesian boy chain-smoking?

It went viral, spreading quicklyacross TV talk shows and newscasts, sparking outrage and disbelief.

So, reports CBS News Correspondent Jeff Glor, a CBS News team travelled to the Indonesian island of Sumatra in search of the boy.

And just before midnight, our crew found Aldi Suganda, in the quiet fishing village of Musi Bbanyuasin -- lit cigarette in-hand:

At home, Aldi plays with toys and grips a bottle.

But histiny hands also light cigarettes with the familiarity of a seasoned smoker.

His parents, Rizal and Diana, say he started smoking when he was just eleven-months-old, during daily trips to the market where they sell fish.

"He was being very fussy, always cried when we were there to sell," Diana explained, through an interpreter. "So, we just let him play by himself. … One day, we followedhim from behind and found him hanging out at a cigarette stall. … He had a cigarette in his hand, already lit. … He already knew how to do it very well, like an adult. … It was actually his own wish."

Before long, Aldi was smoking more than 40 cigarettes a day. In fact, his mother says he often uses one cigarette to light the next.

And adults at the market are seen in the CBS video lightingthem for him, as well.

But in Indonesia, Glor observes, Aldi may not be such a surprising case. Smoking is ingrained in the country's culture; it's the third-largest tobacco consuming nation in the world. A-third of the population smokes -- including many children.

"Over 31 percent of Indonesian children smoke a cigarette before the age of 10," says Matthew Myers, president of the Campaignfor Tobacco-Free Kids. "Over 80 percent of Indonesians who smoke start as teenagers or younger. The reason is that the Indonesian government has completely failed to educate its public .

"A child who's smoking many cigarettes a day," says Dr. Alanna Levine, a pediatrician, "can absolutely be addicted to nicotine … so it's not easy for him to just stop smoking cold turkey."

Says Diana,Aldi's mother, "If he can really quit smoking, he will definitely be a very healthy boy, without any disease. But now, I don't know of what will happen in the future."

"Nowadays," says Diana, "he smokes one pack a day, two packs at most. … We surely hope he will quit, that he will be like any other kid, not smoking. … But I can't stand seeing him hurting himself. What can we do but to accept it.-------------------------------------------------
