Description
The main objectives of this study are to identify the factors influencing the betel chewing habits and examine whether betel chewers are aware of the health risks associated with betel packets. This study was conducted in Thingangyun Township by collecting from 150 betel chewers by random sampling method. There is a municipal law enacted in 2013 stating that “dumping rubbish, spitting betel saliva, general spitting and depositing chewing gum in public areas carry penalties of one year in prison or fines ranging from K10,000 to K500,000”. The study reveals that most of the betel chewers are between 36 and 40 years old and they passed the high school. They work as the general workers and earn between 200,000 and 300,000 Kyats and usually spend for betel nut chewing more than 5,000 Kyats per month. The most influencing factor is the ease of buying betel packets. Most people have the moderate knowledge about betel risks such as mouth or throat cancer since they used to watch anti-chewing short videos, read anti-betel articles and saw some anti-chewing events. According to the Chi-square result, the knowledge of betel risks and intention to quit are strongly correlated while education levels and intention to quit do not have strong correlations. Therefore, in order to reduce betel packet consumption in the society, government officials should educate the anti-betel programs especially for the general workers. In additions, government should issue the law about betel shops and raise the tax for the betel packets so that ease of buying and affordability could be reduced.
