필리핀금연 - 7월23일 부로 필리핀 전지역의 금연 행정명령이 시행되었습니다.
필리핀 전역의 금연 행정명령이 7월23일 부로 시행되었습니다.
예전에도 메트로마닐라 내에서 금연령이 실시된 적은 있었으나 법적 장치가 미비하고 논란의 여지가 있어 중단되었으나 이번에는 확실히 지속될 것으로 판단됩니다. 금연령이 실시된지 하루밖에 지나지 않아서 아직 제대로 준비가 되지 않아서 그런지 대대적인 단속은 아직 이뤄지지 않고 있습니다만 오시는 회원님들 각별히 유념하셔서 불이익 받는 일은 없으시길 당부드립니다.
아래 CNN 기사를 요점(빨간부분)만 간단히 정리해 보겠습니다.
7월23일 부로 전국적 금연령 실시 - CNN
보건부 : 7월23일 부로 전국적 금연경 실시
행정명령에 따르면 대중교통, 학교, 음식점, 지붕이 있는 공간, 길거리/인도 등이 금연령에 포함된다.
(즉, 흡연지정 장소에서만 흡연이 가능하다는 의미)
개인이 금연장소에서 흡연을 하다 단속되면 500페소에서 1만페소까지 단속된 횟수에 따라 부과된다.
게다가 해당장소의 소유주는 5천페소의 벌금 또는 30일 미만의 구류에 처한다.
Metro Manila (CNN Philippines, July 23) — Tricycle driver Ricky Francisco has been hooked on cigarettes for years. He said he typically smokes while waiting for passengers, or sometimes even during his rounds.
But now, Francisco told CNN Philippines he has no choice but to cut down rather than risk paying fines.
"Baka sa CR nalang pagka-ano, ganon kasi mahirap mahuli, mas maganda rin makakatipid tayo nang konti," he said.
[Translation: Maybe I'll just do it in the comfort room, it's hard to get caught. It's good that I'll be able to save a little bit."]
Executive Order 26 or the nationwide ban on smoking takes effect today, July 23.
READ: Health Department: Nationwide smoking ban starts July 23
Under the E.O., smoking is prohibited in public and private transportation utilities, schools, and food establishments. Waiting shed areas, streets and walkways are also covered by the ban.
Individuals caught violating the smoking ban will face fines ranging from ₱500 to ₱10,000 depending on the number of offenses.
Meanwhile owners of establishments caught violating it may be fined ₱5,000 or imprisoned for not more than 30 days.
Local Government Units will take the lead in monitoring compliance with the new policy.
All local governments are required to create a task force that will oversee the ban's implementation.
Some establishments, meanwhile, have taken measures to comply with the newly-implemented ban.
As the ban takes effect, some have put up signs that warn against smoking, while others have closed smoking areas that do not comply with guidelines on designated smoking areas in E.O. 26.
Despite this others don't seem to be aware of the new policy.
In an interview, street vendor Romualdo Hesoro told CNN Philippines he'll continue selling cigarettes along streets. He added, however, he would not light them for the customer.
"Hindi na, bawal eh… Bahala sila kung saan sila magsigarilyo," he said.
[Translation: I won't do it anymore since it's prohibited… It's up to them where they want to smoke.]
In a statement issued on Sunday, the Palace said the ban was a "milestone" that would lead towards a tobacco-free Philippines.
"This Executive Order is another milestone where the government gives priority to the right to protect public health. The implementation of this EO is a realization of our dream of a tobacco-free future," Presidential Spokesman Ernesto Abella said.
He also urged Filipinos to give support to smoke-free establishments.
"Together, let us give our full cooperation and support to the smoke-free establishments in public and enclosed places," he added.
The 2015 World Health Organization (WHO) Global Adult Tobacco Survey said around 15.9 million Filipinos aged 15 years and above smoke tobacco.
Tobacco-related diseases cause an estimated six million deaths a year, although the WHO said these results were significantly less than the 17.3 million smokers recorded in the Philippines in 2009.
The drop came as a result of key policy changes in the years in between.
This includes the Sin Tax Reform Law which puts higher taxes on tobacco products and the Graphic Health Warnings Law, which requires cigarette manufacturers to put gruesome pictures of the effects of continued smoking, such as gangrene and mouth cancer, on their packaging.
