Almost 95% of the
world's population is not protected by
laws banning smoking, the World Heath
Organisation says.
In its second major
report on the "tobacco epidemic", the UN
agency said second-hand or passive
smoking killed nearly 600,000 people
each year.
The WHO said seven new
countries passed comprehensive
smoke-free laws in 2008, taking the
world total to a mere 17.
It warned that tobacco
is still the leading preventable cause
of death, killing five million people
every year.
"Unless urgent action is
taken to control the tobacco epidemic,
the annual death toll could rise to
eight million by 2030," the WHO report
said.
In 2008, an additional
154 million people were newly covered by
smoke-free laws enacted in seven
countries - Colombia, Djibouti,
Guatemala, Mauritius, Panama, Turkey and
Zambia.
But that still meant
only 5.4% of the world's people were
protected, the report said.
The agency urged
governments to implement the 2005 WHO
framework convention on tobacco control,
which 170 nations have signed.
The convention urges
countries to adopt measures to prevent
smoking - by offering people help to
quit, enforcing bans on tobacco
advertising and raising tobacco taxes -
and to protect non-smokers from tobacco
smoke.

Dear CP Team, I am glad that you
and CP newsletter is back. No doubt you have been doing an
excellent job for the Pakistani Community since 97. I am
your regular reader and have benefited a lot from your
counsels and guidance in so many fields.
You know now a days our beloved country Pakistan under the
terrorists attacks. Similarly what is going in Baluchistan,
Swat and Fata and Pata. This is not the war which could only
be fought by our army. We must support them and do what ever
we could do in this regard. The basic thing in my mind is to
educate the people to give them correct thinking about
Islam. What is being done on the name of Islam is nothing
but an Indian Jewish lobby conspiracy against Pakistan.
I would request you to think over it and start some program
in the Cp issues on this topic and let us get together and
help our country get out of this dangerous game. My best
regard to all Cp Team Mohammad Amin Khan Dear Bhai,
We thank you and all other members who sent us welcome back
mails. We are glad to be of help to you and all other
members who have always benefited from our virtual services
including legal, health, students counseling and our regular
alerts and newsletter.
It is unfortunate that we are engaged in this war against
terror but call of the time is to support our security
forces who are on the war front as well as those security
personnel who are resisting, saving lives of the citizens of
Pakistan by giving away their lives in the cities. We are proud
of all these patriots and stand next to them in saving our
country from these barbaric criminals. These criminals
cannot be Muslim as they are indiscriminately killing
children, women and innocent citizens even in Mosques. We
must wipe them out of our land and for this we all have to
be united and supportive to our forces who are saving so
many lives.
We would love to accept and publish views of our community
concerning the war against terror. But note we are not into
political gains for anyone, we would only publish write ups
that would help our country and boost morale of our forces.
May Allah SWT bless and protect our country and its people.

Faith
In Yourself Assalam-O-Alaikum!
Folks, hope you all are enjoying the
pleasant mild winters.
Sometimes in our life, we find ourselves caught in a
quagmire of difficulties. We feel distressed and wonder what
we did to be put in such a condition. But it is often these
tough times, when man struggles to find his way out and
comes to know of many of his hidden talents that he himself
was oblivious to.
When we read the autobiographies of successful people, we
come to see that it was trust in their inner self that kept
them going through all challenges. Having faith in yourself
means the ability to recognize the value of your talents,
your worth and your contribution to the rest of the world.
It is important to have confidence in yourself because if
you don't believe in yourself, then it will be impossible to
truly believe in anything else that you cannot see, touch,
feel or physically behold.
Remember the story of the young seagull that didn’t have
faith in it and hence would not try to flap its wings till
its family left it alone. Nearing to death due to
starvation, the gull found itself in a situation where it
had no other choice, but to try to fly. And as soon as it
let itself fall in air and flap its wings, it discovered its
talent of flying.
I too went through a somewhat similar experience. I was
taught driving after I was 18 years old. I passed my driving
test and got a license too. But I feared driving alone. One
day, the driver didn’t turn up and I had a very important
exam in university. Missing it would have meant repeating
the whole semester. There was no one at home who could drop
me. I had to muster the courage to drive the car, alone, on
my own to the university. Though I cursed the driver for not
turning up in time, but after this venture, I got the
required confidence to manage driving on my own.
Endurance, perseverance, and most importantly trust in
oneself are the key to the success of most of the well known
achievers.
Allah is our Creator. He has promised that He will not put
undue burden on any one. He never puts any one in a
situation from which that person is unequipped to rise out.
We only know what we have on us, but our Creator knows what
is in us. We only see the weight and burden we carry but He
knows of our strengths. Our Lord has more FAITH in us than
we do in ourselves. He has best plans for us- the ones that
are for good and not for disaster. So keep your faith. You
can do it!
