Court asked to stop MMDA campaign vs smoking in public

 Under RA 9211, smoking is prohibited in public places defined as “enclosed or confined areas of all hospitals, medical clinics, schools, public transportation terminals and offices, and buildings such as private and public offices, recreational places, shopping malls, movie houses, hotels, restaurants and the like.”

De la Paz said that the law does not mention roads and sidewalks as public places where smoking is prohibited.

I wonder how this will work out for them.

I don't know much about Manila but this bears watching.
