I am with Joe's point, I am a brisk walker along Corniche to inhale fresh air from seashore. It is really annoying to smell burning cigs and see smokers do not care at all. This is common sense but we can not do anything, how can we expect people not to smoke in corniche where in fact smokers are smoking in no smoking places like "star bucks".
The main thing that government can do to reduce smoking is by full enforcing the law, if no one is smoking in NO SMOKING places, that is surely a big step in reducing smokers. For lower earners,increasing the tax means the end user will just change his cig brand according to his budget and others will just buy even in higher price and continue smoking at "star bucks".
