Here's a piece of advice to smokers who are about to go or planning to visit Davao City in the coming days - DON'T SMOKE!
The stricter and stiffer Ordinance No. 0367-12 or the New Comprehensive Anti-Smoking Ordinance of Davao City officially took effect last Friday on the occasion of the 11th anniversary of the anti-smoking campaign in this city.
Under the new ordinance, smoking will be only allowed inside residences, private vehicles, and in specified or designated areas.
Individuals caught outside the areas face stiffer penalties. Smoking is prohibited from now on in accommodation and entertainment establishments, workplaces, enclosed or partially enclosed public places.
Smoking is also strictly not allowed in public conveyances, government-owned vehicles, public buildings, and public outdoor spaces, including cemeteries, markets, terminals, and in even in sidewalks.
I quit smoking 16 years ago... .
