Well that's what is says here:-

Probably IF and when the anti-smoking legislation gets finalised there'll be a few more.

Unofficial reports around the 'enforcement' aspects seem to be getting pretty 'cute'
Businesses could face financial penalties that would put them out of business if they get caught allowing smoking on their premises. Certainly provides enforcement with involving the authorities.

Lets see

It's funny i really never noticed the smokers the last time we was over in the Philippines.
Maybe it was every other smell that you was smelling hide the smell of smoke.
Father in law does not smoke but the brothers do and none of the women i know smoke.
Is it more of a man thing over there as over here everyone seems to smoke male and female alike.

If 'Fake News' comes from the Secretary of the Philippine Department of Health Paulyn Ubial you're probably right.

She wouldn't say why the Executive Order is taking so long, but she definitely said it's just a matter f time and would be very soon.

Let's wait and see.

Steve ... :iagree: that in the Phils, it does seem to be more of a man's habit. Whereas ... :anerikke: ... here in Britain, I've noticed there tends to be far more (especially younger) women :Smokin: than men nowadays!
