webfact Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 Bangkok: Blanket ban on smoking in areas of city to mark "World No Tobacco Day 2019" on Friday File photo Deputy Bangkok governor Thaweesak Lertpraphan chaired a meeting to decide how the Bangkok Metropolitan Authority were to take part in the WHO's "World No Tobacco Day 2019" tomorrow. They decided on smoke free zones in many areas of the capital to pressure people to quit smoking and not take up the habit, reported Naew Na. These were called "model areas" in The Thai media. The Thai campaign was given the title "Tobacco.burns.your.lungs". Among the areas are bus stations such as Chatuchak, JJ 2 market and whole areas such as Bang Rak, Don Meuang, Taling Chan, Silom, Minburi and the Victory Monument. Six schools will also be joining in with the city wide campaign.

Narratio Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 Quote Six schools will also be joining in with the city wide campaign.
