The implementation of regulation on smoking cigarettes and cigars also putting a place where you can smoke. It is prohibited smoking in any public places and institutions and so the business entity and government identify smoking area. So you can see this kind of signage in my place. Mostly you can see "no smoking" signage in most places but somehow you can find a place where you can lit that cigarette where people cannot complain.

In my country you can smoke everywhere outside. The smoking area works only on hospitals and institutions.

Two years ago that was the situation in my country. It has changed now through the campaign of the government particularly of the health department.

Hmm...Here we don't have smoking area. It's prohibited to smoke in public area and you may be fined for it in Delhi.

I see no point in going to a smelly and smokey place just to add to the smell. However, it is good that the smokers are now in separate places, As a young adult years ago working in NYC I remember working in places with cubicles and the smoke rising out of most cubicles.

Things have drastically changed now. People are so aware of the bad effects to health when you sip to that stick.

I haven't seen any smoking areas where I live. Actually, I don't see many smokers at all.

I see, maybe this is the reason why there's no smoking area because its done in their house.

I often see people smoke in a room with iron bars at the pub here. Some walk outside completely smoking and chatting when it is good weather.

@ilocosboy ah, you have to give people some freedom to kill themselves or not you know! Of course, we the passive smokers suffer a bit, but I do feel sorry for those people a bit.

In bicol, specifically in Legazpi City, "no smoking" ordinance in public places is strictly implemented, the fine for the violators is P1,000. In our office , we have here a designated smoking area and that is located outside the compound.
