Smokers Allured by Health Campaign

Tobacco retailers in Bahrain will this week start importing cigarette packets with graphic warnings about the dangers of smoking. They have also been given six months to get rid of their existing stock as part of GCC-wide efforts to combat the use of tobacco. The new decision will be effective starting Thursday and no imports without the image will be allowed into the country. The visual health warnings include horrific images of smoking hazards, such as the deterioration of organs and harmful effects on pregnant women, which will also be placed on sheesha tobacco packs.

Smoking Areas Built in Airport Area

For those people who get frustrated at having to hold their breath as they race past the just-arrived smokers at the entrance to the Perth Airport, clean air is not too far away. A purpose built smoking area is being built at the domestic terminal of Perth Airport to create a cleaner entrance and exit and provide a dedicated area for smokers. Construction has begun at the southern end of terminal three, the terminal that houses Virgin Australia and other smaller airlines and the area is expected to be in use next month While the spokeswoman would not say what the facility would look like, she said it would be 44 square metres in size and would have capacity for about 60 people.
