        "summary": "Smoking restriction Herawati (The Jakarta Post, Feb. 16) misses the point about smoking restrictions. True, the smoker makes the decision whether or not to smoke, but his fellow passengers have no such choice. Like Herawati at home, they have to endure an unhealthy smoky environment whether they like it or not. The existence of more serious environmental problems doesn't mean that the smoking problem should be put on hold. That's a recipe for never doing anything.",
