The Smoking Ban...


Turkey started to smoking ban in close places. Prof.Dr.Recep Akdag who is Minister of health says that their aim is to protect all communities's life from tobacco products. The ban started yesterday. Smoking will be banned in enclosed public spaces, buildings, shopping centers, hospital's gardens, buses, public transports, schools... As long as people smoke in close places, they will be punished by paying money.
World press have written about Turkey's smoking ban. BBC, The Guardian... The English Guardian newspaper made comment interestingly about the ban. The Guardian newspaper's heading was"Reluctant Turks prepare for smoking ban."
Website has prepared about the ban. The address is http://www.havanikoru.com/İf you want to get information about the ban, you can use this address. Lots of Turkish artists, singers, fashion designers, politicians, directors supported this ban.
Around 25 million of Turkey smoke, including 60% of adult and 11.7% of children.The statistic is too bad .My advice is if you want die earlier,you go on smoking...
