Sports funds from cigarettes

Tue, 24 Dec 2002

From Kompas

I believe it would be a great idea to collect Rp 50 to Rp 100 from each packet of cigarettes and use the fund to improve the country's sports programs, for example for the training of the athletes and the construction of sports facilities.

I believe sports can overcome conflicts and disintegration and nurture sportsmanship and nationalistic pride among the people.

Hopefully the country's sports authorities will consider such a suggestion.
