Tougher laws for a smoke-free future


Reminder to all: Smoking is already banned in eateries in Malaysia but there should be even stricter laws against cigarette use.

PETALING JAYA: Taking heed of New Zealand’s bold new law to ban cigarette sales for future generations, Malaysian advocates against smoking are calling for similar regulations to be introduced here in order to take a firm stand to eliminate the addictive habit.

However, they said the law must be accompanied by stronger enforcement and comprehensive public education.
