Vaping Vaganza: Young people runs e-cigarette business and festivities in the name of tobacco harm reduction amidst regulation challenges in Indonesia Jakarta, Indonesia (2018). Vaping, a popular term for electronic cigarette use, has grown as a trending lifestyle among some of young, middle class Indonesians looking for an alternate, yet less harmful method of smoking. Since the initiation of vaping fairs that attracted tens of thousands visitors in 2014, e-cigarette industry has been developed rapidly. In 2017, approximately 3, 500 entrepreneurs running vape shops and cafes in big cities of Java Island and Bali. Also in the same year, Indonesia's Minister of Finance stipulated regulation. Partially since July 2018, the authority started to regulate, classifying e-cigarette in the category of "other tobacco-derived products", which is followed by a full regulation since October. A 57 percent excise tax is imposed on e-liquid products, which seen by practitioners as too high, based on an argument that e-cigarette is an alternate way to reduce the number of tobacco smokers in the country. Debates on the impacts of vaping on human's health has been coming to public attention for more than a decade, with England became the first country regulating e-cigarette back in 2015 while promoting the use of it for people trying to quit smoking. Some scientists have also stated that e-cigarettes are 95 percent less dangerous compared with smoking. “This is a special product for smokers, and should be used as an aid to quit smoking, by switching to a product that has lesser impacts, ” says Konstantinos Farsalinos, a cardiologist and researcher with Onasis Cardiac Surgery in Athens, stating that e-cigarettes should be pitched in terms of tobacco harm reduction. By 2017, according to the WHO, more than six million deaths were the result of direct tobacco use. In addition, around 890, 000 deaths are the result of non-smokers being exposed to secondhand smoke.
