Cigarettes sold like candy in Indonesia: Scenes from 'Vanguard'

Christof

watch more vanguard

In this scene from "Sex, Lies & Cigarettes," correspondent Christof Putzel meets Indonesian activists who are challenging the pervasive marketing of smoking -- the kind of advertisements long banned in the U.S. Single cigarettes are available for as little as five cents each and are often sold just outside schools.

"Vanguard" is Current TV's no-limits documentary series whose award-winning correspondents put themselves in extraordinary situations to immerse viewers in global issues that have a large social significance. Unlike sound-bite driven reporting, the show's correspondents, Adam Yamaguchi, Christof Putzel and Mariana van Zeller, serve as trusted guides who take viewers on in-depth real life adventures in pursuit of some of the world's most important stories.
