ban smoking in saudi

I think Saudi Arabia should follow Italy and Ireland in banning smoking from enclosed public spaces such as pubs, bars, discos, cafes, cinemas, etc..

As a smoker in Italy who was initially against the ban, I have to agree. People smoke less, the air is nicer and your clothes don't stink in smoke when you come back from pubs.

(Not that you have that problem in the magic kingdom, but anyway).

Environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) causes disease in non-smokers. Workplace bans on smoking are interventions to reduce exposure to ETS to try to prevent harmful health effects. The Irish Government on the 29th March 2004 introduced the first national comprehensive legislation banning smoking in all workplaces including bars and restaurants. http://www.chantixhome.com/
