MALAYSIA enforced a no-smoking ruling at all eateries and restaurants nationwide starting Jan 1, 2019.
The prohibition came under the Control of Tobacco Products Regulation 2004, which was amended in December 2018 to expand the smoking ban to cover non air-conditioned and outdoor eateries such as open-air hawker centres and street stalls. Previously, only air-conditioned restaurants were smoke-free.
