Taiwan enforces strict anti-smoking law
AP - 54 minutes ago
TAIPEI, Taiwan - Taiwan has begun enforcing a strict new law banning smoking in all public places including taxis, airport lounges, and karaoke bars.
Teams of health officials inspected theaters, restaurants and other places as it took effect Sunday to see if no-smoking signs were publicly posted as required.
The law also bans displays of cigarettes where sales are permitted.
Only designated areas are open to smoking. Violators will be subject to a fine of up to 10,000 New Taiwan dollars ($300).
