Do you plan to Hong Kong Disneyland with your family this summer? If your dad smokes, you may
ask him to be careful. Smoking is banned in most public places in Hong Kong from January 1, 2007,
The places include restaurants, workplaces, schools or Karaoke lounges (卡拉OK廳). Even smoking at
some outdoor places is against the law. For example, beaches, sports grounds, museums and most areas of
public parks.
Hong Kong hopes the ban can prevent passive (被動(dòng)) smoking. What is passive smoking? When people
smoke in a restaurant or on a bus, others are forced to breathe the smoke too. They don't want to smoke but
they have no choice. This is passive smoking. It does great harm to people's health.
And it'll be better if more people in Hong Kong give up smoking because of the ban.
Hong Kong has 7 million people. Among them, about 840, 000 people aged 15 or above are smokers.
Amy Choi, a student, agreed to the smoking ban. "I don't like people smoking next to me. It's smoky and
smelly, she said.
If someone is against the ban, he will have to pay up to HK$ 5, 000.
The ban does not include night-clubs, bars (酒吧) or bathhouses yet. But these places will have to ban
smoking by July 1, 2009.
