L'interdiction de fumer dans les lieux publics entre en vigueur le 31 octobre 2009
It means that the prohibition to smoke in public places will be valid from October 31st of the current year!
I think I mentioned this before here, but lots of people are realllllly against it. They say this law that was approved by 80% of voters on September 27th comes from a dictature and that unemployment will increase since bars and restaurants will close since people can't smoke in it.
And what about people like me and my friends who don't smoke? We have to stand the smoke in our faces in bus stations, restaurants and bars all the time. No, here they don't ask it and according to what I see on the streets, I believe that 70% of the people living in Geneva smokes!
SO, commerce involved with this will have to build structures that help removing effectively the smoke from the restaurants and public places or maybe a smoking room?
Well, I am sorry, I prefer to be healthy. Why is it sometimes so difficult to achieve!?
If 80% said no to smoking and 70% of the Geneva citizens are smokers, it means that Geneva is the smoking capital of Switzerland.
ReplyDeleteActually frightening with unemployment is a bullshit as restaurants and other public places have to prepare a smoking - non smoking separation infrastructure what costs money and good for the economy.
Many swiss people pursuit some kind of a sport, and they live a very active life. They run, hike, bike, etc. but on the other hand surprisingly many swiss people smoke! I just don't understand them.
