Low compliance: Despite the ‘No Smoking’ sign, many restaurant owners or their workers hesitate to enforce the rule for fear of confronting aggressive smokers.
PETALING JAYA: The lack of enforcement of the smoking ban in public places, especially at eateries, in some areas has led to customers lighting up at these premises.
The Tobacco Products Control Regulations 2004, enacted under Section 36 of the Food Act 1983, declared all food and beverage outlets to be non-smoking areas.
