"The existing total number of smokers in our country exceeds 300 million, according to the investigation in 2010 at the same time, the crowd of our country knows the second hand smoke will cause adult's heart disease, children's lung disease and proportion of adult's lung cancer to be only 24.6%. " The intersection of society and Qin, Vice chief of department, woman of Ministry of Public Health, plough and say, " the public generally lack the sense of self-protection, the great majority are not that smokers can't defend oneself and breathe the right of the clean air when being exposed by second hand smoke, have no courage to say to the behavior of smoking of public place ' ' for many kinds of reason. "

A urgent one, our country have one special the intersection of complete prohibition and indoor state laws and regulations that public place smoke yet at present, existing local characteristic accuse of cigarette regulation or rule and World Health Organization" whether tobacco control the intersection of frame and convention" and implement the criterion there is relatively loud disparity. China's disease is accused of Liang XiaoFeng, Deputy Director of centre, and introduced: "Limited in the place where No Smoking, lack strong supervision mechanism and clear law enforcement subject,etc., having caused the existing regulation to be very difficult and carried out effectively, the behavior of smoking of public place can't be contained.
