Last May, we were in disbelief when a video of an Indonesian 2-year-old chain smoker went viral.

The "smoking toddler," Aldi Rizal, attempted to quit cold turkey, but was not able to break the habit on his own, NBC reports. Local government stepped in and paid his way through rehab. Six months later, the toddler is cigarette-free. Unfortunately, it is not uncommon for Indonesian youngsters to smoke regularly, and although Aldi may have ditched the cigs, underage smoking remains to be a massive problem throughout the country.
