Ardi Rizal is a two year-old from Musi Banyuasin in Sumatra with a difference - he is addicted to cigarettes and smokes two packs a day.
According to his mother Diana, "he's totally addicted. If he doesn't gets cigarettes, he gets angry and screams and batters his head against the wall.'
She said that he suffered withdrawal symptoms when he was denied cigarettes. "He complains that he feels dizzy and sick if he doesn't get a cigarette," she said.
His father, Mohammed, first introduced Ardi to smoking at the age of eighteen months.
Ardi, who weighs about 25 kilos, is also too unfit to play with other children and instead gets around on a toy truck.
Ardi refuses to smoke anything other than his favourite brand.
When his father was asked if he thought smoking would harm Ardi, he said "Ardi looks pretty healthy to me. I don't see the problem."
