Controversy continues grow with objections from several quarters over plans for Bali to host the World Tobacco Asia Conference 2014 (WTA) set to be held on the resort island September 24-25, 2014.
Joining a growing chorus opposed to the conference being held in Bali is leading academics, community leaders, anti-smoke activists and students.
Forming part of the front to see the WTA moved from Bali is Artawan of the Faculty of Public Health at Bali’s Udayana University. “We refused this meeting in Bali and anywhere else in Indonesia,” said Artawan while speaking at a seminar held on Saturday, August 31, 2013.
Urging a nationwide refusal of the WTA being held anywhere in Indonesia, Artawan reminded his listeners that Indonesia is a member of G-20 and the only country in ASEAN yet to adopt the Framework Convention for Tobacco Control (FCTC).
