    Smoking on the Boulevard is banned but each Restaurant has a smoking Area.

    I personally wouldn't like that. Where would we park our cars? Parking is already a nightmare in the city.....and I really don't want to leave my motorcycles parked on some dark side street. As a smoker I also think that banning smoking in public open air areas is a bit ridiculous.

    You can smoke in every bar I know about on the boulevard and every restaurant I've been to allows smoking outside.

    Hmm Wrye83, its not what you like or what suits you. It is about what is good for the city. Just imagine the fumes that we inhale because of these not to mention the noise pollution. I must agree that parking is a nightmare but of course when they plan to ban transportation in the boulevard, perhaps they would also think of a safe parking. But I don't see this happening in 10 years time.

    I still believe that smoking should be banned in public areas because not all people smoke. If you want to damage you lungs, be my guest :smile: But spare me :smile: You can always smoke where you live. Just my thoughts and I don't want to create any animosity :smile:

    In another note, I think they should also give fines to those people who litter specially from the jeepneys bus etc. They just throw their garbage outside. I find that very disturbing. Shows the lack of education of some people.
