PETALING JAYA: From Japan to South Africa, countries worldwide with smoking bans have implemented a system where lighting up is allowed in eateries with designated smoking areas.

In India, smokers can indulge in their habit at designated areas in eateries and hotels, following the country’s ban on smoking in public places and restrictions on smoking in other places such as cinemas, restaurants, hotels and shopping malls.
