Abstract

Cigarette consumption in Indonesia has increased sevenfold, from 33 billion to 217 billion cigarettes. Indonesia has producing cigarettes exceeding the maximum given by the tobacco industry roadmap in 2013. Some 332 billion stems have been produced by Indonesia, an excessive figure amounting to about 260 billion cigarettes (Tobacco Control Support Center, 2014). This study attempts to find a link between cigarette consumption in society by province and the economic status of Indonesians. Data in this study are taken from Riskesdas and Susenas. It is concluded that there is a downward trend in the country’s poverty against the percentage of Indonesia based on province. In addition, it finds that the three provinces that had the highest have the average daily cigarette consumption in 2013 were Kepulauan Bangka Belitung, with as many as 18.3 cigarettes each day, followed by South Kalimantan with as many as 16.7 cigarettes and, finally, Riau with as many as 16.5 cigarettes each day.
