Otsiriza Bungwe la WHO linanena za mliri wapadziko lonse wa fodya akuti mayiko ambiri atsatira malamulo oletsa kusuta fodya, kuyambira pa zithunzi zochenjeza za phukusi, kumadera opanda utsi komanso kuletsa kutsatsa.
Bungwe la zaumoyo padziko lonse lapansi likulandila zotsatila
Pafupifupi anthu 4,7 biliyoni, kapena 63% ya anthu padziko lapansi, ali ndi njira imodzi yoletsa kusuta fodya. Poyerekeza ndi 2007, pamene anthu 1 biliyoni okha ndi 15% ya anthu adatetezedwa, chiwerengerochi chawonjezeka kanayi. Njira zoyendetsera mfundozi zapulumutsa anthu mamiliyoni ambiri kuti asamwalire msanga. Komabe, lipotilo linanena kuti makampani opanga fodya akupitirizabe kulepheretsa maboma kuti akwaniritse zolinga zake zopulumutsa miyoyo ndi kupulumutsa ndalama.
«Maboma padziko lonse lapansi sayenera kuwononga nthawi kuphatikiza zonse zomwe bungwe la WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control limapereka m'mapologalamu ndi ndondomeko zawo zoletsa fodya.", adatero Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Mtsogoleri Wamkulu wa WHO. "Ayeneranso kuchitapo kanthu mwamphamvu motsutsana ndi malonda oletsedwa a fodya, omwe akuipiraipira ndikuwonjezera mliri wapadziko lonse wa fodya ndi zotsatira zake zaumoyo ndi chikhalidwe cha anthu.»
Dr Tedros akuwonjezera kuti: "Mwa kugwirira ntchito limodzi, maiko angathe kuletsa anthu mamiliyoni ambiri kufa chaka chilichonse ndi matenda obwera chifukwa cha fodya ndi kusunga mabiliyoni a madola pachaka pamtengo wa chithandizo chamankhwala ndi kutayika kwa ntchito.".
Masiku ano, anthu 4,7 biliyoni amatetezedwa ndi njira imodzi yokhudzana ndi "kuchita bwinoolembedwa mu WHO Framework Convention on Fodya Control, 3,6 biliyoni kuposa mu 2007 malinga ndi lipoti. Ndikuthokoza chifukwa cha kulimbikitsa ntchito kwa maboma omwe awonjezera mphamvu zawo kuti akwaniritse zofunikira za Framework Convention zomwe zapangitsa kuti izi zitheke.
Njira zothandizira kugwiritsa ntchito njira zochepetsera zofunikira mu Framework Convention, mongaMPOWERapulumutsa anthu miyandamiyanda kuti asafe msanga ndipo apulumutsa madola mabiliyoni mazana ambiri pazaka 10 zapitazi. MPOWER idakhazikitsidwa mu 2008 kuti ithandizire boma kuchitapo kanthu panjira 6 zowongolera mogwirizana ndi Framework Convention:
- (Monitor) kuyang'anira ndondomeko za kusuta fodya ndi kupewa;
- (Tetezani) kuteteza anthu ku utsi wa fodya;
- (Kupereka) kupereka thandizo kwa omwe akufuna kusiya kusuta;
- (Chenjezani) kuonongeka kwa kusuta;
- (Kulimbikitsa) kukakamiza kuletsa kutsatsa fodya, kukwezedwa ndi kuthandizira; ndi
- (Kwezani) kwezani misonkho ya fodya.
«Mmodzi mwa anthu 10 aliwonse amafa padziko lapansi chifukwa cha kusuta, koma izi zitha kusinthidwa chifukwa cha njira zowongolera za MPOWER zomwe zatsimikizira kuti ndizothandiza kwambiri.", Fotokozani Michael R. Bloomberg, Kazembe Wadziko Lonse 
wa WHO wa matenda osapatsirana komanso woyambitsa Bloomberg Philanthropies. Kupita patsogolo kumene kukuchitika padziko lonse, ndi kusonyezedwa m’lipotili, kukusonyeza kuti n’zotheka kuti mayiko asinthe njira. Bloomberg Philanthropies ikuyembekeza kugwira ntchito ndi Dr. Ghebreyesus ndikupitiriza mgwirizano ndi WHO.
Lipoti latsopanoli, lothandizidwa ndi Bloomberg Philanthropies, likuyang'ana kwambiri za njira zowunika komanso kupewa kusuta fodya. Olembawo apeza kuti gawo limodzi mwa magawo atatu a mayiko ali ndi njira zowunika momwe fodya akugwiritsidwira ntchito. Ngakhale kuti gawo lawo lawonjezeka kuchokera ku 2007 (inali kotala panthawiyo), maboma akufunikabe kuchita zambiri kuti ayambe kuika patsogolo ndi kulipirira gawoli la ntchito.
Ngakhale mayiko omwe ali ndi chuma chochepa amatha kuyang'anira momwe fodya akugwiritsidwira ntchito ndikugwiritsa ntchito njira zopewera. Popanga deta ya achinyamata ndi achikulire, mayiko amatha kulimbikitsa thanzi, kusunga ndalama pamtengo wa chithandizo chamankhwala ndikupanga ndalama zothandizira anthu, lipotilo likutero. Iye awonjezeranso kuti kuyang’anira mwadongosolo kulowerera kwa makampani a fodya pakupanga mfundo za boma kumateteza umoyo wa anthu poulula njira zomwe makampaniwa amatsata, monga kukokomeza kufunikira kwa chuma, kunyoza mfundo za sayansi zomwe zatsimikiziridwa komanso kugwiritsa ntchito malamulo pofuna kuopseza maboma.
«Maiko angateteze bwino nzika zawo, kuphatikizapo ana, ku makampani a fodya ndi mankhwala ake akamagwiritsira ntchito njira zowunikira fodya."akutero Dr. Douglas Bettcher, Mtsogoleri wa WHO wa Dipatimenti Yopewera Matenda Osapatsirana (NCD).
«Kusokoneza kwamakampani a fodya m'malamulo a anthu ndi cholepheretsa thanzi ndi chitukuko m'maiko ambiri“, akudandaula Dr. Bettcher. "Koma polamulira ndi kuletsa ntchito zimenezi, tikhoza kupulumutsa miyoyo ndi kubzala mbewu za tsogolo lokhazikika kwa onse.»
