Preparations for the 2019 Southeast Asian Games get a boost with the help of 164 volunteers from PMFTC Inc., an affiliate of Philip Morris International, non-government organizations and the local community. The group gathered 446 kilograms of mostly plastic garbage and cigarette butts from under and in between rocks near the stretch of the beach where the triathlon event of the biennial games will be held. The activity is in line with PMFTC Inc.’s ‘Unsmoke’ advocacy, a campaign to encourage smokers to quit and for those who don’t, to change to better alternatives.
