SMOKING BAN IN TURKEY

In Turkey many people start smoking at very early ages and their number is getting higher and higher.Something had to be done and at last government ,with a law ,banned smoking in enclosed public places.According to this law people who light up cigarette in those places will face penalties of 69 Turkish liras.Smoking ban is stil in effect ,so what do you think about this law?I believe that nonsmokers also have a right to breathe clean air.

In my opinion ,people must care the rights of other people because nobody has got any right to disturb other people .Moreover;we are giving harm to them .As you know,in an enclosed place ,nonsmokers are affected more than smokers are .It is very harmful and I think ıt should be banned even at open air places because people see them while smoking and they get affected by them .

Smoking is not good for our health ,either.At first ,we can’t notice the harmful affects of smoking but as the time passes we start to have health problems.For example ;my grandfather died because of cigarette .When he died ,he was 60 years old .I mean you can die at an early age or

you can lose your arm or leg and to stop all these I support this law.

Another reason is economical .People pay large amount of money to buy a package of cigarette.Furthermore;cigarette is giving them nothing instead it gives them harm and it is like ,you are paying money for something to kill yourself slowly .When people are aware of that it is being too late to change everything ,but I am hopeful about our future.Despite all these ,ıt is a shame to see some people who are against this law. They are against this law because they are just thinking of their economical profit .

In conclusion ,I think that smoking ban ın Turkey should continue until satisfactory results are taken .Legal options that we have now are not enough because ıt is possible to see people smoking in enclosed smoking areas,so we must understand someting if we want a good life ;we must be strict about this law.
