SHAH ALAM: Though smoking and vaping at eateries was strictly prohibited nationwide when Regulation 11(1)(d) of the Control of Tobacco Products (Amendment) Regulations 2018 was enforced beginning Jan 1 2020, many are still seen flouting the rule.
A check by Bernama at several locations in Selangor found some individuals smoking and vaping, openly ignoring the no smoking signs displayed at the premises.Housewife Siti Zubaibah Amin, 39, said at times she had to tell off those who smoke or vape near her children.
"These smokers are aware what they doing is wrong but they just don’t care or just want to try their luck. They should not take this matter lightly,” she told Bernama. "They should be the ones helping to see that the no-smoking rule is followed and reprimand customers who smoke and vape openly. They can also be fined if they do not stop customers from lighting up in their premises," he said.
"Food premises owners or operators as well as customers are also expected to do their part by warning and advising customers who smoke, to give their premises a clean image and promote a smoke-free environment," he said when contacted by Bernama.
