PUTRAJAYA: There’s no letting up in discussions about the no-smoking ruling at eateries, with Sabah finally opting to accept the ban and the Health Ministry seemingly being receptive to having dedicated sections for smokers.

Minister Datuk Seri Dr Dzulkefly Ahmad said they had been getting feedback about the ban, which started on Jan 1, as well as proposals by eateries to designate a section for patrons who need a puff.
