Hail the anti-tobacco regulation

The tobacco control regulation promulgated by the Ministry of Health recently is welcome news. As a nonsmoker, I strongly support the regulation, which meets the requirements of the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control and will benefit society as a whole.

Of course, meeting all the targets will not be an easy task for China, which has the world's largest smoking population and is the biggest tobacco producer. But if the entire society is motivated to act jointly to curb smoking, clearing the obstacles can become easier.
